    Bro, I am not trying to turn this into an argument and I’m sorry if I sounded combative earlier. But believe it or not, I too have been to Mexico. Many times actually. And I have Mexican restaurants by me that are owned & run by Mexicans. Your description is not flawed, but I am very curious why you feel the need to defend Taco Bell so bad. I really don’t find them comparable, especially what people generally think a taco from Taco Bell is; i.e. a deep fried paper thin tortilla with ground beef, lettuce and shredded American cheese byproduct (again, this anger is directed towards Taco Bell, not you personally).

      I’m not defending taco bell, I’m just saying that they serve tacos. Why are you so convinced that they don’t?

        Again, not trying to escalate this into a heated argument.

        But they are not equivalent. And I’m not saying Taco Bell’s tacos are terrible. Ffs, I got one maybe every other week. But they are not tacos! They may be “tacos” but they are not tacos.
