Weird, 2012 was about when Brian Niccol took over as Chief Marketing Officer and then later became CEO of Taco Bell. Afterwards he moved to Chipotle and raised prices and lowered quality there too. Now he’s in the news for becoming the new Starbucks CEO where he will be commuting via private jet 600 miles 3 days a week.
So you’ll be happy to know that your extra money on tacos, burritos, and coffee goes to good use like paying this asshole millions of dollars to fly around on a private jet enshittifying everything he touches
Capitalism fanboys will read these posts and think to themselves “boy I sure am glad we’re not like the soviet union where a small cabal of elite deprived everyone else of a good life for their own benefit”
And the cherry on top about that guy… he’s a union buster.
New Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol Has a History of Union-Busting. Niccol’s tenure as Chipotle CEO was marred by settlements over unfair labor practices and child labor law violations
The Beefy 5-Layer Burrito at Taco Bell was introduced as part of the company’s “Why Pay More?” value menu in 2010, priced at 89 cents. Over time, like many fast-food items, the price of the Beefy 5-Layer Burrito increased due to inflation, rising food costs, and other economic factors.
The exact timing of each price change can vary by location and market, but in general, the price increased gradually over the years. By the mid-2010s, the price had risen to over a dollar, and by the late 2010s and early 2020s, the price could be found in the range of $1.50 to $2.00 or more, depending on the region and promotions.
Everyone shitting on you but your AI is right. It was about 9 months or so it lasted. I know because I took a course at the exact time and survived off those when I was broke as fuck. It doubled then like a year or two later had doubled again and that held until around Covid
It had the relevant information. There’s not a lot of educational resources regarding this important topic. I initially got downvoted because someone said the information was wrong. I don’t fucking care.
The fact it’s AI alone means it’s extra effort for any reader to determine if it’s actually true. What’s the point of posting claims if noone believes them until they do their own search? If you already checked it yourself, just post the actual source instead of AI’s plausible sounding BS.
That price held untill atleast 2012, that’s a solid 5 dollars of increase in just over 10 years. I could totally be talking out my ass

Union busting and child labour and still can’t get prices down. If that’s not a terrible CEO I don’t know what is.
This chaps my ass almost as much as the beefy 5 layer burrito
Beefy5 layer burrito has that effect.
Hopefully most of the price increase is tax related as a luxury food item and the money goes towards diabetes and obesity research. Right?
Had to AI this one.

Yes, trust AI, that’s what Ryan Gosling looked like 14 years ago.
You do realize those are several images stitched together… right?
Images stitched together in order capture the amount of time that passed, yeah. They’re just not from the right years for that.
You guys are obsessed with gosling. We are talking about taco bell
Oh this isn’t a Wendy’s?
I’m beginning to think the first picture might not be accurate to the year, surely he didn’t look that young back then
God damnit
It has to be the early 90’s, he was born in 1980 and looked like this in 1998.
Twinkules
Early 90’s what? You mean early ’90s?

Everyone’s shitting on him because people loathe lazy copy/paste paragraphs from chatGPT in their online discourse. Me included.

Point taken
Lmao, yeah… I doubt that was from 2010 😂
Well… it was released in 2010 so I don’t know what you want me to tell you lol
The 89c deal with the picture of a 12 year old gosling isn’t from 2010
