To me why stuff like this becomes a real issue ... food allergies. For example people who are allergic to Wheat/Gluten/Soy, Mexican is usually a pretty safe bet. Meat, cheese and a CORN tortilla and your safe.

When you order what you think is meat when you have a food allergy and are instead served something that is 15% meat and the rest is wheat, soy and other stuff, you end up having an allergic reaction. For some people this is very severe. Granted, most people with a food allergy are mostly stuck to eating at home/doing their research before hand and wouldn't likely eat at Taco Bell. But its still super miss leading. Considering Soy and wheat are in the top 8 food reactions this poses a problem for the public.


PS i have loved Taco bell a many drunken night but my Husband has food allergies so i have recently become more aware of how much "food" isn't really real food.
