Taco Bell stopped putting lard in their beans?  When did they do that?  Doesn't matter, I think Taco Bell stinks (just my opinion).
 
Personally, when I want mexican-style food, I just wait until I'm in town and go to Taco House.  The best!  Funky decor, but great, well priced, something for everyone from vegan to full carnivore.   And it's fresh. 
 
And in general, I'd rather patronize a small non-chain place to eat.  They need the support alot more than the big corporate places.
 
I just don't see the logic given all the media attention to the sorry state of the American diet and the huge obesity problem of having not 1 but 3 different fast food places in one setting.  I think we will be seeing the "freshman 15" turn into the freshman 30!
 
I guess only the "big guys" could actually afford what Penn wants for leasing space.  Friends of ours were very interested in opening a restaurant on 40th Street.  When they found out how much it would cost, they said thanks, but no thanks -- and these are people who've been involved with a family-run restaurant for years, they are not neophytes to the whole setting up a new place.

Title: merits of taco bell (was: RE: [UC] Sad commentary)

 fwiw, taco bell is the only vegan friendly fast food place.

i am distressed that they didn't put an upscale tea shop there. or, better yet, a wine store.

Ok, you're right, Taco Bell is probably food. 

But I don't think we should "let them eat plastic."  That's not very
progressive.
