Review: Taco Bell Spicy Beefy Nacho Crunchwrap Slider

January 15, 2016 Derek Sotak

Crispy Fritos® , Seasoned Beef, Nacho Cheese Sauce, Spice-Loaded Creamy Chipotle Sauce

I lot of people have been coming up to me and asking, “Man, why you got such a hate on for Taco Bell?” How all these obvious plants from the Taco Bell corporation are now able to find me I know not, but when they do I used to be able to say, “Because all their nacho offerings are subpar and occasionally they just rename the food they previously have to confuse you into thinking they’ve made something new and delicious instead of actually making something new that could actually be delicious.” BUT NO LONGER!

Review: Taco Bell Boss Nachos

January 5, 2016 Derek Sotak

"Tortilla chips prepared fresh daily piled high with hearty beans, a three-cheese blend, warm nacho cheese sauce, guacamole, pico de gallo, reduced-fat sour cream, and steak, steak and more steak."

Let’s get this out of the way right up front: shortly after consuming this order of Boss Nachos at Taco Bell I had a spurting case of diarrhea. Ha ha ha, we get it, Taco Bell is low hanging fruit, but that poop was a fact. Now, this could just be a coincidence, I did get really sick not long afterwards with the flu, so it could have been that. I also hadn’t eaten at TB in months and my stomach was possibly not used to eating such food so it could have been like how my stomach was all jacked up that time I went to Costa Rica from eating food I wasn’t used to and needed to take the special pills the doctor prescribed me before I left to solidify things. The moral is that liquid was coming out of my butt, but that could be unrelated to eating there, or it might not be. You have been warned.
