I realize the ratio is off here, but the top ingredients are still food. Oats, water, chili, tomato, garlic, etc. I don't eat there often, but I guess I just don't see the issue. Its an issue of false advertising I believe, personally I also don't eat Taco Bell very often, and when I do I knew along time ago the beef wasn't 100% beef. Basically all fast food places use some kind of filler in their meats, and as far as fillers go the one Taco Bell is using is actually not horrendous for ones health unlike some of the other ones. So as I already stated I think the lawsuits are because people are being told they get 100% beef and they aren't (but I haven't seen '100% Beef' on a sign at a Taco Bell), and has little to do with health issues as a result of the beef. | ||

Taco bell uses grade D beef Grade E is whats in dog food So its the cheapest beef they can legally sell you, and its only 35% of what it could be. It's still fucking delicious, I don't care what any of you say. | ||

Did you think it was high quality meat? I'm actually glad its oats, soy and all that stuff instead of being lard for ex. | ||

I think I will only be getting chicken products from them now as the lawsuit contends that the chicken and carne asada have been tested and are what they are claimed to be. No wonder their meat tastes so good though, it's all salty and sugary. why was taco bell your favourite fast food? they've been known to use grade F meat for ages... | ||

I mean, when I eat Chef Boyardee, I fully expect it to be anything but beef. If you're already a Taco Bell eater, this shouldn't change anything for you. Did you really think you were paying 69cents for a taco with 80% beef in it? I suppose it is a little sketchy from a legal standpoint though. | ||

Also it looks like Taco Bell is challenging the lawsuit, rejecting the claims. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110125/ap_on_bi_ge/us_taco_bell_lawsuit I suppose it'll be interesting to follow, but I'm definitely going to continue eating at Taco Bell regardless. In fact, I think I might go down the street for a late night snack before the GSL starts. :D Edit: The lawyer suing apparently has never even eaten at Taco Bell, or so he told a CNN reporter while she was on the phone with him. (eating a taco from Taco Bell at the same time lol!) | ||
