What is Taco Bell meat made of?

People actually believe the fabricated stories that plaster the internet, probably mostly made up by disgruntled employee's. I am a former employee. I started as a crew member (first job when I was 16 in 1985) I was a district manager when I left to start my own business in 2001. We use to cook the beef fresh in the store, mixed with the original Taco Bell beef seasoning. Taco Bell stopped cooking the beef on location for reasons to help prevent food borne illness. Cooking the beef in a controlled, closely monitored process helps ensure customer safety. Once the beef is cooked in the processing plant it is bagged, refrigerated and shipped to the restaurant where it is easily reheated to the correct temperature (boil in the bag process) It is the same quality USDA inspected ground beef found in your local grocery store. The recipe has not changed since they cooked it fresh in the store a few years back. The rumors and lies circulating the internet about the ingredients are simply untrue. The ingredients are ground beef and seasoning. To my knowledge the seasoning recipe has not changed. It is not much different than what you would find in the common taco seasoning packet at the grocery store. I have absolutely nothing to gain from writing this. I just don't like it when I hear an american icon like Taco Bell taking an unjust bashing. Comparing their food to most ordinary fast food isn't really a fair comparison. Taco Bell is a much healthier food to eat. Too much of anything isn't good for you. But, when I have to make the choice of fast food, I usually choose Taco Bell. it fits much better into my low cholesterol diet.

What is the average salary of a Taco Bell franchise owner?

In the US, it would be somewhere between 27 and 37 percent of the cost of the item.

Certainly some beverages are a lower cost percentage and there are some specialty items in more expensive places that are slightly higher in cost.

Of course there are many other costs in a restaurant (to the owner) and if a restaurant makes more than 5% profit after all expenses - it is a great business.

There are also great disparities in costs in some fast-food/convenient-food restaurants. In most Burger chains, if customers only bought the burgers they would have to greatly increase the price of the sandwich or go out of business. But french fries and drinks are much more profitable.

Is the Taco Bell cheese halal?

Food is halal for Muslims if it is free of pork products, alcohol, and if its meat is slaughtered as per Islamic requirements.

Those-said requirements are: The animal should be slaughtered by a Muslim, and done while pronouncing the name of God.

Also, note that chain slaughtering(using machines to do perform the actual slaughter) is NOT halal complaint!

"Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah. that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars)…" (The Quran 5:3) (Y. Ali)

Taco Bell has prided itself on being religously conscious. The whole line and prep cycle has been moved to please Hindus, and the way our meat is preparred, stored, cooked, and re-heated has been changed and changed and changed (exact amount) to make our food Halal. Our dairy products are Also kept away from and meat products.
