IMO it’s just a meme that got overblown. Obviously there are people who get the shits from eating there, but I don’t think it’s any more significant than other fastfood.

Also, the current news of this explosive diarrhea outbreak seems to hyperfocus on Taco Bell when the true source is the supplier that also supplies lettuce to a lot of other restaurants.

Taco Bell blew the whistle on their own supplier (who supplies produce to many other restaurants) and pulled the suspected products from their stores immediately, before the government did anything.

Good guy Taco Bell, you have never given me diarrhea and they will never make me hate you.

For real. Now if only they'd bring back lava sauce permanently...

Hot sauce that is hot would be nice.

I still miss double decker tacos (with the beans, not cheese) and Chilitos (later called chili cheese burritos).

Yep .. even before they identified it they banned a bunch of ingredients on many states stores proactively. Not casting any shade on TB

Yeah not everybody is used to eat beans, that's it.
