    Coming to you from an overworked and underpaid teenager who probably hates their life.

    $6 for this garbage. Taco Bell used to be a decent guilty pleasure but it’s become expensive trash now.

      I still can’t replicate a chalupa well enough. Homemade quesaritos don’t entirely scratch the itch, but they’re pretty good.

      But they aren’t cheap any more.

      On a road trip I stopped at a Taco Bell for bean burritos for something easy to eat. Two bean burritos for $8. They used to be less than a $1 each.

    Ordering pizza from taco bell is like ordering fries at a sushi place. You deserve whatever you get.

      Okay but no joke some of the best fries in my area are from teriyaki places. They know how to fry food well and the fries aren’t ordered enough to be hot held so they’re always cooked on ordering

    I legitimately love the Mexican pizza. Yes, sometimes it do be looking like that. But sometimes, it’s beautiful and perfectly cut without cracking.

    I make these at home now because taco bell Canada removed them from the menu.

    I can make four 12" Mexican pizzas, twice as thick, not risk getting e-coli/listeria, for about $5 CAD.

        Warm oven.

        Lightly fry tortillas in pan for about 15 -30 seconds (score them so they don’t poof up)

        Open refried beans. (Add taco seasoning if you want [you can make that super cheap, too!])

        Grate cheese.

        Mince some onion.

        Pick a few cherry tomatoes, jalapeño, cut cilantro, chives and green onion from plants.

        Blend a few of the above with some vinegar, sugar, salt and lemon juice. Heat in pan or pot for a bit. A zingy salsa /sauce.

        Put things on tortilla.

        Put another tortilla on top.

        Sauce it and cheese it and garnish it.

        Put in oven.

        Take out of oven.

        Put in mouth.

        Enjoy.

        **addendum

        I haven’t made them in a while and I don’t normally take pics of my food so this is old and blurry

    Bro I think somebody murdered a crab, took off its legs, and let it rot in a vat full of acid and raw sewage for two weeks before serving it to you.
