After avoiding it for over a decade, I finally stepped back inside a Taco Bell—and I was not ready for what I found. The Baja Blast? Genuinely delicious. The Crunchwrap Supreme? A smart design, poorly executed. The guacamole? It's giving Home Depot. In this episode, comedian & actress Priya Pappu joins me to break down the good, the not good, and everything in between about eating inside a Taco Bell. From its strangely sterile atmosphere to its impressively bad beef portions, we're analyzing it all to find out if it truly represents fast-food mediocrity.
Taco Bell Is the Most Creative Fast Food Restaurant—But At What Cost? Taco Bell is the fast-food chain that isn't afraid to get weird. Over the years, they've served up bold (and sometimes questionable) menu items like the Naked Chicken Chalupa, the Firecracker Burrito, and even a Kit Kat Quesadilla. But alongside its reputation for creativity, Taco Bell has a messy history—food recalls, bizarre marketing stunts, and legal battles that only Taco Bell could pull off. In this episode, comedian Priya Pappu joins me to unpack the history of America's most inventive fast-food chain. We dive into how Taco Bell was founded, its strangest discontinued items, its failed upscale spin-off, and the time it got sued for serving horse meat in Europe (yikes). We also check Yelp reviews for the Taco Bell we visited—because people have some thoughts. Also, VyVy Nguyen is back and here to read a fan-submitted What's Going On Over There from the show's Discord server! "Fine" Dining is now on video! Head on over to my YouTube to WATCH this episode! IN THIS EPISODE: ✔️ Taco Bell's Origins – Started by a guy named Bell, but not a taco in sight ✔️ The Strangest Menu Items – From Cheetos burritos to Pop Rocks-style tacos ✔️ Marketing Stunts & PR Disasters – They tried to “buy” the Liberty Bell?? ✔️ Healthier Than You Think? – The surprising facts about Taco Bell's menu ✔️ Lawsuits & Recalls – E. coli outbreaks, metal shavings, & food safety scares ✔️ Yelp Chaos – Unhinged customer reviews of the Taco Bell we ate at

The Denver Nuggets will be favored to win their 1st NBA championship no matter who wins tonight's game 7 in the Eastern Conference Finals! This year's Nuggets team is clearly the best of Nikola Jokic's career, but you might not know that because they're rarely talked about on other sports shows. So I introduce you to this season's NBA champions the only way I know how: by comparing them to Taco Bell menu items! I'll tell you not only which menu item each key contributor resembles, but break down their role on the team to tell you why! I also go over why this franchise's path to where they are now has mirrored the career of their star player, and which of their past failures were out of their control. Most importantly, we talk about Taco Bell. I can't be clear enough about that. You're welcome.

“We have to think beyond what's on the menu, because people are starting to care more about, not just how things taste, but they want to know that the food is good for them, and it's also good for the world. ” In this week's episode, Lori had the honor of chatting with Missy Shaaphok, RD. Missy is the Manager of Global Nutrition and Sustainability for Taco Bell. Her mission is to continue finding new ways to integrate healthy food into the fast food market. Over the past several years, her team has been responsible for many of the monumental steps towards greater nutrition offered on the Taco Bell Menu. From removal of artificial ingredients, to the addition of cage-free eggs, Missy's team has been working to provide fresh and healthy options for Taco Bell customers. Some have claimed that Taco Bell is the healthiest fast food restaurant! “Nutrition is so much more than people typically think. It's a combination of science and emotion… How the food is grown… emotionally everyone has a personal and cultural connection with food… It's the connection with food and culture that brings out the joy in eating and consuming the food that nourishes our body. ” There are over 46 million customers served at Taco Bell each week, which makes Missy's job no small feat. She and her team are continually working on new ideas that will reach a very large customer demographic. Missy shares about her team's food innovation and ways that they have worked to make the Taco Bell menu work for anyone's dietary preferences. She shares that anything on the menu can be customized and gives some examples of modifications that can help you stick to your healthy eating plan. “We want to make eating well the easy and convenient choice for you.” Missy has a passion to provide nutritious food options, and increase the amount of produce consumed by Taco Bell customers. She even shares some insight on future plans for the Taco Bell menu. “The introduction of our power menu increased our fresh produce offerings by 175,000,000 pounds per year” Some Topics we talk about in this episode: Introduction // Guest - 1:15 How Do You Bring Nutrition into Taco Bell? - 3:15 How Do You Define Sustainability - 5:45 How Do You Define Nutrition? - 7:20 Creating Menu Items for the Millions - 10:42 Customer Feedback - 16:20 Missy's Insight on the Produce Industry - 20:20 Increasing the Consumption of Fruits and Vegetables - 24:20 What's Next for Taco Bell - 27:20 Wrap-up - 30:58 How to get involved Join The Produce Moms Group on Facebook and continue the discussion every week! https://www.facebook.com/groups/316715662104709/ Reach out to us - we'd love to hear more about where you're at in life and business!
