The lady is correct that Taco Bell should not be allowed to call something "beef" if it is mostly nothing but fillers and extenders, soy, and "anti-dusting agents"... whatever the fuck that is.
When you go to Starbucks and you want a soy substitute in your coffee, you specify soy... they give you soy. You know what you're getting.
When you buy furniture and it says it's made out of "bonded leather", that means it's a polyurethane or vinyl product mixed with a small percentage of leather fibers as a backing material. You know it's not leather. That's why they say it's not leather.
There's all kinds of laws that specify the consumer must know what they're buying. I'd say there are certainly laws being broken by Taco Bell labeling it's product as "beef". They should not be playing games with food, and misrepresenting what they're feeding you. A lot of people are going to be very pissed off by this story, myself included. I don't think I'll be eating there again.
