What Makes Taco Bell So Special for Stoners?
There are several reasons for this type of popularity.
The menu is perhaps the best reason for it. Taco Bell offers comfortably familiar ingredients, but lets you customize the menu items in just about any way you want. In addition, the portions are quite large, so a few orders go a long way to satisfying your cravings.
The food quality is also good enough. No one’s saying that Taco Bell deserves a Michelin star, but they offer good fast-casual Tex-Mex fare that isn’t boring.
It’s also convenient to visit, with plenty of these locations open at any time of the day. There are plenty of Taco Bell locations, so it’s not as if you have to travel a long way. If you live in a city, chances are that you’ll find a Taco Bell near you. You should, however, just walk down to it—driving while under the influence isn’t cool.
Finally, the environment at Taco Bell is great. No one’s judgmental inside the place, even when you’re beset with an uncontrollable laughing fit. The employees won’t bat an eye, and neither will your fellow patrons. Everyone’s friendly and mellow.
What Should You Order?
If you’re feeling the munchies, then you’re perfectly free to experiment with your order. Treat it like an art form. After all, plenty of creative minds have enjoyed cannabis. These musicians like Snoop Dogg and Bob Dylan, writers like Hunter S. Thompson, and even revolutionary computer nerds like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Heck, even Carl Sagan was a weed fan.
Of course, it’s also highly possible that you just want something quick and easy, and you can get that in Taco Bell as well. Just ask for any of the following:
Crunchwrap Supreme
This is the number one on the list for most cannabis consumers. The price for a Crunchwrap Supreme is around 4 bucks only, so it’s easy on the wallet. For fillings, you can go with seasoned beef, grilled chicken, or black beans. Then you also get the tomatoes, lettuce, nacho cheese sauce, and sour cream.
It’s delicious, and you need just one hand to hold it. then when you do hold it, it’ll remind you of the Millennium Falcon. That might then lead to the giggles as you think about the joke movies that followed the original trilogy.
Cheesy Gordita Crunch
You start with the soft flatbread that’s been covered in melted cheese, and then you use that to cover around the crunchy taco shell. Then you fill it up with seasoned beef, though you can go with grilled chicken or black beans instead. Then you add the 3-cheese blend, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and cali ranch sauce.
Sit back, relax, and just enjoy.
Chalupa Supreme
When you have a food item that both meat-eaters and vegetarians enjoy, it’s a winner. Though this can come in seasoned beef or grilled chicken, you can always go for the black beans instead. Then you also have the tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, and 3-cheese blend.
It’s flaky and crispy on the outside, and then soft and chewy on the inside. That thick, soft shell has no peers. With its familiar flavors, it’s a comfort food for even sober people.
Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco
Once you’ve tried having the cheesy and salty Doritos replace the regular hard shell, there’s no going back. You’ll just want this shell again and again. That’s not to mention the yummy ingredients. Together, they all make one hell of a snack.
Cinnamon Twists
You’ll need to order this, because it’s just so good. In fact, you need maybe 2 or 3 orders, so you can enjoy one order as you get home. And if you have buddies with you, they’ll want a taste of it as well.
Chicken Quesadilla
You’ve got chicken drowned in cheese and creamy jalapeño sauce for some real oomph. The taste is fine, but you may want to make it a Supreme for less than a buck extra. That’ll get you sour cream and diced tomatoes, and those aren’t bad either.
Final Words
If you’re going to a Taco Bell while under the influence, have a sober buddy drive you to the place. Better yet, just have the stuff delivered. That way, you get to relax while waiting. Go watch Galaxy Quest while you wait, so you can get the giggles as time flies by!
