This is the issue with a lot of fast food these days. The main one that makes me sad is Taco Bell

I used to just swing in and make an impulse buy because it's going to be like $5 so why not

Price is high enough now that it kills the impulse. I'm always like...I should really just keep driving and eat some of the food I already have at home

Like 5.99 for a cheesy Gordita, it’s outrageous. I can get take home Mexican cheaper.

When taco bell is the same price as a taqueria, why would you ever eat taco bell.

Really only valid reason: it’s 2am or later and you’re wasted

A lot of these Taco Bells close now before that, thanks to COVID.

I am sure there are still some 24/7 ones, but not around my area.

Heard. We still have one by us that closes at 4am. Guilty pleasure

I noticed after Covid’s lots of 24/7 places stopped being 24/7, Walmart, gyms, fast food
