There used to be several Taco Bell outlets all around Singapore a few years back - I remember there being outlets at Funan and Causeway Point. To the best of my knowledge, these outlets have now been taken over by KFC and franchised such that the entire menu has been raped beyond recognition. No more burritos. No more Fries Supreme or Cinnamon Twists. And worst of all, all the beef has been replaced with some kind of dry, sinewy tasteless chicken. In certain items whose recipes are tailored for and demand the trademark Taco Bell beef, like the Taco Supreme for one, the change renders your favourite snack virtually unrecognisable and worse, a complete insult to the palate - at least to my tastebuds. The result being that I have not patronised any one of these so-called Taco Bell outlets for a little over the year, something which is not likely to change anytime in the future.

Sad I know, but what is one to do?
