Mexican People Try Taco Bell for the First Time
Some of your favorite Mexican foods have a long history: Tacos date back to the 18th century silver mines in Mexico, while burritos are thought to have originated in Northern Mexico with 19th century vaqueros (cowboys).
So how does a certain popular “Mexican” fast food company stand up in a taste test among those whose heritage traces back to that nation? To find out, BuzzFeed asked Mexicans of all ages to try Taco Bell for the first time - and their reactions—from “I can’t describe what I just ate because it’s not Mexican food” to “It’s an explosion of flavor!”— might surprise you.
