Taco Bell’s New Days Of The Week

Once “Taco Tuesday” is liberated, Taco Bell’s marketing department has plans to roll out other taco themes for every day of the week:  

Sunday
Tacobout Sunday Scaries
It’s 5p. You’re cuddled up on the couch and as snug as a bug in a rug — if that bug had severe anxiety and was prone to emotional implosion at any given time.  The Sunday Scaries have hit.  Sounds like you need to run for the border while the US population can still see across country lines.  We’ve got this.  Sit back and relax (medically induced or naturally) while we deliver everything on the menu that has a variation of the word “cheese” in it.

Monday
Mashup Monday
No matter if they’re manic or moody, you can count on Taco Bell to cure your case of the Mondays.  Given we are often located in the same building as an adjoining KFC, we’re mixing things up in our kitchen.  Each quesadilla combo meal comes with a side of mashed potatoes for dipping sauce.  And, in turn, every 14 piece bucket of fried chicken is less “crispy original recipe” and more “coated in a nacho cheese powder.”  Mmm, Mondays.  

Tuesday
Taco DupeDay

Don’t suffer choking down another soggy, bland taco imitation at some rest stop or outlet mall.  Bring us your Jaco Tohn’s knock-off and trade it in for the real thing.  Heck, we’ll even swap out your Mexican’t pizza for a Mexican one.  

Wednesday
Taco Winsday

A little mid-week competition provides the kick in the pants you need to climb over hump day.  The challenge: finish 5 Double Steak Grilled Cheese Burritos with 500 packets of Diablo sauce in 5 minutes.   The terms: don’t post anything on TikTok quite yet, this is not FDA-approved.  The prize: our budget is slightly strapped due to the economy/inflation/subprime mortgages/etc. but we can promise you a bag of ice and unfettered access to a private bathroom stall of your choosing in any of our North American locations.  

(In the winners’ circle, this challenge has also earned the moniker Taco Winceday.)

Thursday
Twisted Thursdays  

“Is Pepsi okay?”  Ha ha, we all know it never is.  So, in a shocking, second twist (the first twist was that this isn’t about cinnamon twists) — we are offering Coke products today.  Because despite literally being owned by Pepsi, we all know serving Diet Coke is the one thing missing at Taco Bell that would really put us over the competitive edge.

Friday
Fri-AI-Day

Always an innovation leader,  we have begun testing AI advancements in our restaurants.  That’s why on Fridays, we’re excited to announce that robots will be taking over.  No, no, not like  “taking over the world” — just taking over certain roles at select locations.  

Direct your self-driving car for a spin through the drive-thru, and get an up close look of these killer robots.  Err, by  “killer” we mean “cool.”  Nothing to be afraid of here, we promise!  But yeah, bots definitely coming for your jobs, though.

Saturday
Taco Satur-Bae

Come in with your bae and enjoy 2-for-1 Baja Blasts.  Now, if it is after 2p, you will be carded, as we do not encourage anyone over the age of 29 to drink this within six hours of bedtime.  Remember, Baja Blasts are Mountain Dew.  The bad boy drink of the 90s that your mom told you to worry about, like Dylan on 90210.   And, like Dylan, both will raise your heartbeat to an unnatural, often unhealthy, level before sending your emotions crashing.
