The Big Bell Box Meal [Taco Bell = Value]

[Note: I wrote up this draft MONTHS ago, but never finished. Now the Big Box Meal has been pulled from many menus and they don't offer the Bacon Club Chalupa with it, only some much cheaper, less filling standard menu item. So, yeah, it's a lot more of a rip-off now. But, for the sake of documentation - of a better time, one could say - here's my first impression of the ORIGINAL Taco Bell Big Bell Box Meal (as it first appear here on the West Coast USA).]

In traditional unboxing fashion, I present to you the unboxing of…

TACO BELL’s BIG BELL BOX MEAL!

I’ve been wanting to order this meal for some time after first seeing it on Taco Bell’s menu. Where I live, by the way, Taco Bell is a VERY popular fast food restaurant. I believe Taco Bell would have to be my second favorite place to eat, right behind In-N-Out, of course. The psudeo-Mexican food is also something good you can count on, but mostly, the prices are resonable while all the other fast food places have doubled theirs in the past 5 years making a meal price seem like the tab on a steak dinner look mild.

Anywho, the Big Bell Box Meal consists of a hard shell taco, bean burrito, Cinnamon Twists, the new Bacon Club Chaplupa and a large drink. The large drink, to remind you, is the standard drink size you’re given when you order any meal.

It’s not like the amount of food you get it amazing, and the box is nothing other than a gimmick (though, it is convenient!) the same food ordered individually VS. the price of one “Big Bell Box Meal” makes it worth it.

Calories? Who’s counting? I found one estimate at 1550 + drink.
