    Probably not, but I will defend Dairy Queen's shrimp basket. It's actually REALLY really good. At least I thought so.

    I wouldn't eat anything at Taco Bell, but if I did I surely would NOT eat seafood! When I saw the commercial for the shrimp thing it really just grossed me out.

    Pepe: There is a menu correction, okay. We will now be serving baloney sandwiches.
    [Swedish cook shouts something]
    Pepe: But, no bread.

    I don't know where you got that number from but you couldn't be more wrong toots. It's between 16%-26% meat, the rest is....


    Edit, I was a little off as well

    Lol, Micha got that number straight from the Taco Bell website.

    http://www.tacobell.com/BeefIngredientFAQs

    And, not that I trust corporate heads, but I believe that the new advertisement campaign talking about the "88% beef" guarantee is probably in direct response to the lawsuit you mentioned. The commercials are rolling non-stop about it. Maybe it just wasn't as beefy at the time of that court case. ;)
