    What Taco Bell is to Mexican food is the same as what Budweiser is to beer: The lowest common denominator.

    True, and I couldn't imagine how many times I would have to pee if I combined a latte and a few beers, but I still don't see it catching on at Taco Bell. I wouldn't expect anything better than a handle from the largest of the large craft brewers anyway, so I just don't see the appeal to most folks on here. Also TMI but Taco Bell and most greasy fast food often cause me need to have a "sit down" soon after eating and I'm not trying to hang out at the Bell and deal with it there. Gross

    Not to surprising. I am sure that Taco Bell doesn't do nearly as good with the after bar crowd in Chicago as they do in other cities due to the amazing/cheap/convenient/open late night Mexican food that is available all over the city.

    Even beer wouldn't make me eat Taco Bell.

    No freaking way - I was about to post something about the restaurant war winner Taco Bell but didn't even get what, 5 posts in before someone else did? Gotta love the depth of pop culture knowledge on this site! Be well my friend!

    Ditto. And more than once I'm afraid to admit.

    If you want "street tacos" and beer that are worth having, you can go up the street a couple of blocks to Big Star.

    A little off topic-- On Valentines Day at WC they take reservations and offer sit down dinner with linens on their tables and table service. On a typical day at WC people sit and leave throughout the day. Image what its like there on this day.

    A very cold lager with the Miles Davis album "Straight Up no Chaser" playing ,because we all know where the beer and taco will end up.

    Pair the taco with a Budlight and call it a diet meal.

    Southpark covered this once but it was Taco Bell + Mt. Dew + Cartman + ziplining = a hilarious episode.

    Can you imagine the devastation that would be released on our society if Golden Corral served alcohol?
