I'll never understand why they don't just put the cheese directly on top if the meat so it gets all melty and delicious. That's how I do my tacos at home: It goes meat, cheese, hot sauce, lettuce, cilantro, then pico, in that order. Don't forget to fry shells yourself using corn tortillas. Don't buy that pre-made Old El Paso bullshit.

And now I want to make tacos.

The real answer is because they don't look as good. Marketing decided they look sad and pathetic if all you can see is lettuce, since the amount of cheese and meat is so small anyways. They want you to SEE it has cheese. They don't care if you can't taste it because it's on your lap.

I put the cheese first, then meat on top to melt it and make the meat stick to the tortilla.

The far superior Crunchwrap Supreme was practically engineered to solve every case of taco mishap imaginable. Crunchy, tasty, and sh*t doesn't fly everywhere when you bite into it. It even keeps your hands relatively clean. If you must eat in your car, this is the way to go.

The only flaw is it doesn't have a good way to inject hot/medium/mild sauce into the envelope, and I'm pretty sure you can't order it prepared that way.

You can. I worked at Taco Bell, and our managerial training had/has an entire module that boils down to: "if we can reasonably do it, and the customer asks, then do it."

As Bill Hicks put it:

"Welcome to Taco Bell. How would you like your beans and rice arranged?"

[–] dejected_warp_core 3 points 11 months ago

This is a game changer. Thank you.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

I can't believe I never thought to ask it prepared that way. This makes the crunch wrap such a more inviting option for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I miss the grilled stuffed burrito. It was the same thing, but much more convenient to hold.

[–] BowtiesAreCool 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Double decker taco did it too

[–] dejected_warp_core 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's the one with the soft taco shell bean-glued to the outside? Solid compromise to prevent taco-shell shrapnel from ejecting all over your lap. Doesn't fix OP's cheese problem though.

[–] BowtiesAreCool 2 points 11 months ago

I mean every taco I eat I just kinda push it all down a little bit and it’s usually fine

[–] TwoBeeSan 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Cheese on top is OK, just gotta melt it. Acts as a sorta glue. Without melting? Yeah get fucked

[–] ZoopZeZoop 1 points 11 months ago

Needs more, too. Won't be enough to make the net otherwise.

[–] ieightpi 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wait Taco Bell actually tweeted this?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Photoshop, inspect element both exist... so probably not.

[–] ieightpi 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm usually not this gullible

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Happens to all of us sometimes lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

the cheese is garbage. order all regular tacos fresca style.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Put the meat on top so the taco is top heavy, but won't disintegrate at the bottom from the grease.

[–] Coreidan -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Eating in your car is nasty

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Waiting longer than 45 seconds to eat tacobell is even nastier tho

[–] Coreidan -2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Thats because Taco Bell is disgusting. The thought of eating that garbage is even nastier then eating in your car.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 1 points 11 months ago

That's why I eat in my car.

It is not as nasty as your car.

There’s some video out on YouTube where the guy eats it for like a month straight and actually does alright. Apparently they’ve been sneakily swapping out ingredients to make it healthier over an extended period of time. So feel better about eating it! (/s?)
