I am not certain I ever ate at a Taco Bell before this one. I like Mexican food, but the thought of this place never interested me until I met my wife. She extolled the virtues of Taco Bell.

We like different foods, but the ol’ #1 is a pretty good deal. A big bean burrito and a soft taco hits the spot. I also have developed a liking for the MexiMelt. No, none of this is great food, but it beats McDonald’s most days.

Gert likes the empanadas and the taco salad . . . not necessarily in that order.

I also find Taco Bell is a more affordable fast food place than the burger joints.
