Comment on Back in my day this MF was .29 cents and was THICK with INGREDIENTS

If that’s a Taco Bell 5-layer burrito, I don’t remember them being 29 cents (grew up poor, we rarely ate out). But by the time I was out on my own as an adult, I could get two 5-layer burritos and a drink for around $3 - $4 USD and some change. It was enough food to sustain me for a day if it came down to it.
But yes, these days the 5-layers are more like dried out 3-layer mini-burrito abominations that cost $3 or $4 a piece. They are pretty much nothing like the large succulent many layered dollar / value menu beasts of the past.
I guess if typing up this post is considered yelling and web hosting is basically all cloud-based these days and I’m an old man by 2025 standards, then yes, I am indeed an old man yelling at clouds. But mostly I’m an old man avoiding Taco Bell now that it’s completely ruined its brand.

Cheesy bean and rice burrito was $1 until recently and over 400 kcal each. Looks like they’re 1.79 now, thanks Trump.
