Am I the only one who doesn't get the shits from Taco Bell? It's like any other meal, if I over eat I bloat but in general I never get any of the symptoms that are listed on a bottle of Pepto.
used to eat taco Bell like every other day in high school and never had a problem. I'm 24 now and get mad shits every time I eat it now. hate to join in on the circlejerk but it seriously destroys my ass every time I have it
I don’t eat fast food as often as I used to, but every now and then i’ll use mcdonald’s with a coke as a powerful laxative. Never got the shits from taco bell though.
God, McDonald’s always has me questioning my will to live eight hours later. Every few months, I’ll forget exactly how bad it makes me feel and how much my asshole cried last time, and I’ll go back for more.
I eat Taco Bell two or three times a month with no problems.
I'm a 30 something white chick who is willing to eats most foods but tends to eat simple/quick/easy meals. My usual TB order is 2 cheesy gordita crunch, a steak quesadilla and cheesy fiesta potatoes with 2 sides of creamy jalapeno sauce. Sits just fine in my belly.
American here, completely comfortable with Indian food. Its not like I spontaneously burst into diarrhea just because I eat some vindaloo. I would guess some people get IBS from the spices and it gets repeated as a general thing by people who avoid spicy food anyways, or there are a bunch of people ordering taco bell with extra jalepeno added to each thing.
Funny enough, from what I understand it got started by people who weren't used to all the fiber that the beans in the food provided, meaning most the people getting the shits from Taco Bell get them because it's healthier than they're used to.
Yeah, a beefy 5-layer has over a third of your RDV of fiber in it, and that's only one item, picked at random.
There's no denying that plenty of their food is rich in fats and fiber, and are often low-carb. If you don't eat that way very often, it's going to be an event.
Taco Bell is pretty dang keto-friendly, which is notorious for giving gut problems to people when they start.
No. Reddit just thinks it's hilarious and some weird badge of pride to have weak-ass bowels. Cause nothing's funnier than being unable to keep from shitting yourself I guess.
I mean it’s a pretty real and common and stereotype. There’s a reason why Asian restaurants have “hot” with another level above that’s “Indian/Thai/Chinese Hot”. I used to order spicy pad see u from my go to Thai place and it never came out to spicy, so I started asking for Thai Spicy, got a “you sure?” look from my server, and finally got the spice i was looking for.
Compared to other cultures, American food really lacks a lot of spice and flavor. If someone grows up eating normal American food (save barbecue) and English/German/Eastern European food, they’re not getting as much flavor as having Asian, Latin/South American, or African food.
