Default Taco Bell

Why are most of the Taco Bells in Calgary closed? I needed my big box meal!

No, everyone stopped going before you did. Obviously we are better than you because of this, we made fun of you about it behind your back.

The KFC/Taco Bell on Edmonton Trail south of 16th is still open, if that helps.

Taco Time is where it's at.

Taco Tuesday puts me out of commission until Friday.

Who knows, but the one up in Evanston is staffed by the strugglingest bunch of strugglers that ever struggled together a taco.

And not only are they total strugglers, the debit machine tries to hit you up for a tip. Dafuq? Who tips at Taco Bell? Seriously. Cheeky sumbitches.

I always liked the one in Bowness. It closed in February.

If anything they should be tipping me. Or at the very least the hardworking Alberta Health Services staff. I think I'm still missing pieces of my colon from the last Taco Tuesday. That was grim.

I wonder if they're closing down the stand-alone Taco Bells to convert them to KFC-Taco Bell's (or just get rid of the stand-alones in favour of the combined stores)?

I believe the one on 32nd and 32nd NE used to be a stand-alone Taco Bell, but has been a combined one for a few years.

I for one cannot wait until the day I can get a Double-Down and an All Meat Burrito in the same place at the same time.

Do they stock defibrillators at each table? Because thats probably a reasonable precaution.

The one on Edmonton Trail doesn't even have tables. They don't want you dying on their property.

Its just like Disneyland all over again.

I swear to God if I get shuttled into an ambulance in one more parking lot I'm going to lose it.
