Cantina Bell - Taco Bell's Gourmet menu?

[The Mike]

I don't think I've ever equated Taco Bell with the word Gourmet but here it is:

On Wednesday, the company announced it will take its new Cantina Bell menu nationwide starting July 5. Brian Niccol, a Taco Bell executive, has called the menu "gourmet Mexican."
The menu was influenced by celebrity chef Loren Garcia — a judge on "America's Next Great Restaurant and contestant on the upcoming series of "Top Chef Masters"— and includes burritos or bowls with the option of chicken, steak or vegetables. There is also the option for upgraded ingredients never before seen at Taco Bell, such as black beans, cilantro spiced rice and dressing and all-white meat chicken marinated in an herb-citrus sauce.
Items on the new Cantina Bell menu are priced below $5 and will compete with other upscale fast-casual Mexican eateries like Chipotle (CMG) and Qdoba.

I've worked at taco bell and while working there I never recall thinking gourmet would be put with taco bell.

 

[Darth Cruel]

They will be competing with Chipoltle, huh? Does that mean we will all need Cantina Bell Ole?

Kangaroo meat can't be gourmet?

Say what you want at about taco bell. But at 2:00 a.m. after a night of heavy drinking there's nothing tastier. And you pay heavily for it the next day.

This is why you go to Jack in the Box.

Their cantina ones are different. They had them at my local Taco Bell some time ago and failed miserably. I'll take the "fake" tacos any day.

I worked for Taco Bell in College, and I am here to tell you the secret ingredient in the meat: Solyent Green. I used to go there for years and years and years, then one day I woke up and said to myself, 'no more'

Haven't been there in two years. Just can't do em anymore. When i get the urge, more of a Del Taco man, myself

Del Taco's secret ingredient is Soylent Yellow.

Green all the way!

Double entendre?

Double entendre?

No, it's a real place at least here in the Midwest. Never been impressed with the food though.
