Biz: Meet the XXL Chalupa, Taco Bell’s version of the artery-stopper

  • Somehow, we live in a world where eating meat and other toppings in fried flatbread isn’t enough. So, for some reason, Taco Bell has decided to make their Chalupa XXL-sized, which is unnecessary, because you could just buy two and get the same effect. This bad boy has 650 calories. It’s like they needed to compete with the Thickburger and the Double Down, and they did so by combining a traditional Chalupa with a Taco Salad. And the dog’s dead. Based on the need for extra meat in this thing, we think we know why. (Too soon?) source

Culture: The Taco Bell Chihuahua dropped her final chalupa. :(

  • Gidget was her name, chalupas were her game. In one of the day’s saddest events, the dog that convinced us that Taco Bell wasn’t feeding us garbage died at the grand old age of fifteen. *sigh* We don’t know if we’re going to make it through the rest of the day. source
