"Giant rats roam free!"

A PR nightmare for Taco Bell.



I love the person-on-the-street interviews: "I won't eat here again." Good call!

It is unusual to see such a popular fast food restaurant overrun with rodents.

LOL!

The only time I have ever seen a rat in person was in DC. Walking from the Mall back to the Metro station at night, there were rats all over the sidewalk!

I recently saw a cute lil mouse walk right in the front door of my grocery. I think that was an isolated incident though -- I hope!

I don't know why anyone ate at Taco Bell in the first place since the food is so bad, but if the E Coli sicknesses didn't get 'em off the habit hopefully this will. Most Taco Bells look dirty.

"Think Outside the Bun"

will now be replaced with:

"All the Rodents Are Dead"

As they were NYC rats, I think they were just showing up for the audition for the next Taco Bell ad, figuring if that old skinny chihuahua can get some work...

So it went like most auditions go when the media shows up and they just don't understand!

RAA, now you’ve gone and done it. You’ve kindled an ancient memory and that calls for a quick story.

The first time I ever heard the word “ratatouille” was when I conned my way into a waitering gig at this fancy French steak house kind of restaurant. (Where I was sexually harrassed by another man – apparently I had nice buns that were calling out for a solid goosing -- but that’s another story.)

One morning, cleaners came in to degrease the kitchen floor and they poured some kind of acid that found its way to a nest sending thousands of giant cockroaches racing to the furthest reaches of the dining room. These babies were still out and about when lunch was being served hours later. One of the waiters snatched a cockroach off of a table using an empty wine glass. The patrons were sitting right there at the time. They walked out. Yuck!

By the way. There was a plastic milk crate on the floor in the kitchen at the front of the line into which the busboys would discard used napkins for the laundry. If the waiters needed to wipe a plate before serving it they’d grab one of those napkins, some of which stayed on top of the pile and got used numerous times. Yuck!

This is why, whenever one dines out, one should always drink.

Taco Bell went downhill FAST after they sacked Ginger, the chihuahua.

They need to hire my Schmoopsie, to get their mojo back.

Although come to think of it, he looks rattish.

Cheers,
Victoria

Ahhh! Victoria, please don't let Schmoopsie be a Neo-Socialist Chalupa-shilling tool! The last chihuahua was used like Che! Would you want that? Would you let Schmoopsie Fidel while Rome burned?

When the last Taco Bell is shut down, it will be by a ratty chalupa they just sold us!
