    Former Taco Bell employee here. I just wanted to throw a couple of fun facts your way about Taco Bell because I think it's kind of interesting how they do things. For the Chalupa, the shell is made by deep frying their round flatbread in a specially made utensil. The bottom half cups the flatbread into the shape of a taco shell and the top half holds it in place while it fries. If I remember correctly, they fry for about 45 seconds. I've burnt more than a couple forgetting to set the timer. They use premade ground beef, obviously, but it's warmed up or prepared for service in what's called a thermalizer. Essentially a sous fide, with water that reaches 212 degrees F. Metal slots separate the different meats within the thermalizer, all of which are in plastic bags. They are put in and a timer is set for 30 minutes. Ideally, the bags will come out of the thermalizer after the 30 minutes, but that doesn't always happen. Even the Nacho Cheese is reheated in the thermalizer. I genuinely loved my first couple of years working at Taco Bell. Staying in fast food too long is what ruins it, I believe.

    For people who don't want to go all the way through the dough/tortilla-making process--I've been making mine with store-bought Naan bread. You can get them in small rounds that are similar to a taco size. I pan-fry them on both sides then shape them, set them on a taco holder and let them dry. You could also then bake them for about ten minutes in the oven to make them extra crispy. Or you can deep fry them as shown. But anyway, the Naan bread fries up nice and crispy and bubbly, just like the chalupa.

    The Santa Fe chalupa was so good back in the day. They discontinued it a long time ago. It had a corn, blackbean, red bell pepper, onion and cilantro salsa with a sauce made with mayo, chili sauce (like ketchup, not asian-style), lemon juice, and white vinegar, and of course some lettuce and cheese. I still make these, only I just use tortillas instead of fried flatbreads.

Ah. Memories. Plus that jingle kinda slapped, y'all. 🎶 Gorditaaaas 🎶 Fresh New Tastes are weeee ... 🎶 Try Supreme todaaaaay ... 🎶 Then Santa Feeeee! 🎶 Fiesta, we love theeeeeeeee! 🎶 🎶 Gorditaaaas ... 🎶 🎶 ... let's go eat one nooow 🎶 Chalupas are delicious, but Gorditas will always be my first love.

I had the lowest self-esteem and self image...just was existing. Everything else is just stuff, but He loves us so much. He not only hung on the Cross, but He adds things to us. Another job is out there for you, but when you put your heart in Jesus' hands, doors being closed won't hit you so hard. Be encouraged. He has conquered the world for you! I pray for a healthy family, joy and peace to fill your home, and for God to show Himself strong in your life soon in Jesus Name! Much love from Texas!

    The reason we all ate Taco Bell as a kid was.... IT WAS GOOD! I actually worked there for 7 years starting back in 1986. Everything (And I do mean EVERYTHING) was made fresh. There were no corners cut at all. Tomatoes/Onions/Green Onions/Olives - ALL hand dices/sliced. We would get 40 heads of Iceburg and hand slice. Cheese came in 40 lbs blocks and we would use piano wire to cube it and shred. Beans were made in a huge pressure cooker (And YES with Lard!). Beef was done in a big pan 20-40 lbs at a time. ALl shells were hand fried in a fryer. After 1995... I never EVER ate Taco Bell again. It was disgusting 🤢 🤢

    YES. I remember how GOOD everything was back then, especially the tacos. Then in the mid-nineties, the food quality changed - nowhere close to how it was before corporate took over and traded out all of their fresh ingredients for pre-packaged ingredients. At one point, Taco Bell ground meat was actually graded below "feed grade" meat, the meat biproduct used for pet food. I used to work the Taco Bell drive-thru, and the whole kitchen was stunned silent when our manager told us why all of our ground beef was being recalled and replaced with product from another vendor, considering how much of that, um, "food" we consumed. That's right, y'all - the quality of the taco meat was considered below what's suitable enough to feed yer good boy. Nasty.

    I am so going to make this. I actually like Taco Bell, Chalupas especially, but my Taco Bell is cheap AF and puts about 1/4 of the amount of beef your Taco Bell did. It's like a friggin' smear of beef and then like two heaping handfuls of lettuce.

The Chalupas have or had this seasoning that just wasn't to my liking when I was younger. Fast-forward to today and I kinda like these flavors now

But hell they'd have me frie nacho chips for a whole weekend and they are supposed to be trashed after 8 hours. Least that was the hold times when I was there. Nothing fried is supposed to be there longer than a day but....... yeah.

    It seems like a simple taco with loaded cheese and veggies. Easy to make and simply. Use tortillas, cook the meat with basic seasoning, sourcream and cheese or melted together and then just do lettice and tomato. As a mexican hispanic, the cheese would be queso fresco and we would top it off with a salsa. Real basic tacos.

    Let's be fair..We don't go to Taco bell because it's good. We go there because it was cheap, fast and fairly tasty for what it was. It isn't difficult to top anything the bell makes. That said, since they have raised their prices sky high, and their service at least here has turned into a 15+ minute nightmare. I haven't found any reason to go in a very long time.
