Look at this. Taco Bell is one of the worst/greatest things ever made. The popular fast food chain delivers a unique food hybrid of Mexican originations and American sensibilities. Branded into oblivion with a myriad of edible buzz words and obtrusive packaging, it is lowbrow pop sustenance at it's finest.

The beauty of Taco Bell is that all of the food tastes the same, no matter what you get-- be it Chalupa, Grilled-stuffed Burrito or the Mexican Pizza. The secret is that every item on the Taco Bell item is a different shape and size. It's the defining factor of any organized menu separation. My personal favorite, the Crunch Wrap Supreme, is recognized by it's discus-shaped exterior-- a sort of frisbee meets bean and meat cake perfect for tossing at family parties and neighborhood picnics. A discerning eye will pick it out in the photograph above.

I recommend one and all visit their local Taco Bell food chain and have at the magic. It's one of our good nation's most endearing hallmarks and a grand testament to our cultural achievements.


What did I tell you? Different shapes!


At the end of the day, we have the comfort and security of always knowing exactly what we're going to get: white stuff filled with brown stuff.
