Taco Bell has been the shining star of the fast-food business for several years. But now the company is contending with a restaurant’s worst nightmare: an explosive diarrhea outbreak.
It’s always been a joke here in the U.S. Mostly held up by the fact that they stick with using grade d beef or what not. In truth most everyone I know who has joked about it don’t really get sick off it or they wouldn’t eat it. (Also most sickness like this comes from lettuce so the grade d meat really has no impact)
But everyones mileage varies, I’ve never had a problem with my asshole stinging after eating spicy food, but many people swear it’s going to happen when they are eating something spicy. I figure most said that as a joke as well… but maybe these people all have really weak stomachs and should be watching what they eat if spice bothers them.
Okay hear me out. I love spicy food. I love hot sauces. My mouth has a quite high tolerance for capsaicin. I would consider anything below 100K Scoville mild at best and every single standard commercial sauce (Tabasco, Cholula, Huy Fong Sriracha, Frank’s etc.) no more spicier than ketchup. When it’s taco night at home I drench mine in hot sauces. My asshole does absolutely not have the same tolerance.
Sure it designates age of the cow, which impacts how tough the meat is… So it isn’t a scale for the quality, while also being a scale for the quality in a way
Its less about a food safety problem at taco bell and more of an extremely low quality food problem. Their meat is about 88% beef, binders and fillers and some seasonings.
I’ve always been a little confused by that meme since it’s never been an issue at Canadian Taco Bells

I don’t understand how that would work. I guess your tongue and rectum must have different taste buds, lolol
There’s no such thing as “Grade D” meat.
