Once you enter you never leave...

Yum! Brands heaven.

Also, didn't Arbys and Wendys merge a few years ago? Why haven't I seen any Arby's/Wendys restaurants? I need my Baconator with Arbys curlys dammit!

Really good to see that "unsustainable palm oil" is on the list of things they're nixing. I wish more companies would get on that bandwagon, because it's a pretty screwed up situation.

What, no A&W?

Largely this is probably healthier for consumers in the long run, but I wonder how it will effect prices going forward. This is the ultimate determinant.

Moreover, the bigger issue is the meat source. I have zero idea where Taco Bell sources it's meat from, but upping the meat quality could do wonders.

isn't the difference between natural + artificial flavors basically a technicality

It's pretty much meaningless, yes.

 

[TheGreyHulk]

Im all for this. Im definitely on the side of getting rid of artificial flavors and excessive preservatives in foods. I love taco bell too, so this is even better.

It could also use a LJS

I wanna see a vine of someone taking a shot of black pepper flavor

 

[big_z]

i really want to see this artificial black pepper. outside of grinding up old car tires with dirt i don't see how you could make it cheaper than it already is.

Nothing really will change except for the signs saying 100% natural.

its all marketing bullshit. in another 10-15 years well be eating vat meat.

Haven't really eaten there in a while.

I doubt they they would remove their artificial Doritos flavored/colored shells.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

What are they gonna do about the Doritos Tacos, though? Or is that a workaround since the shells are "provided by Doritos," technically?

It's in the OP guys, even was bolded...c'mon.

The moves do not affect fountain drinks or co-branded products, such as its Doritos-flavored taco shells.

So much for real Bef

 

[dreamcastfan]

I honestly don't get how Taco Bell stays in business. People really think that so-called "meat" they serve is delicious? *Shrugs*.. To each their own I suppose.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

You mean they couldn't use real pepper before? Good lord.

 

[KorrZ]

Instead of "black pepper flavor," for instance, Taco Bell will start using actual black pepper in its seasoned beef

Wow, glad they have a food innovation officer to figure that one out! Phew!

Just here for the "there will be barely anything on their menu " joke.
