As far as we know, there are only taco bells on the planet earth. As far as we know, taco bell is only a taco chain not a secret society masquerading as fast food taco restaurant. As far as we know, taco bell did not organize the JFK assassination. As far as we know, taco bell was not used to feed POWs during WW2. As far as we know, taco bell is not the public face of the order of the taco, a global shadow government that has ruled the realm of man since the dawn of time, deciding who wins wars, who develops technology, and who wins elections.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

But they are the favorite to win the fast food wars
Didn’t Pizza Hut win that outside of the US?
Eh, same company.
Given the incomprehensible vastness of the universe, it’s the height of arrogance to assume that Taco Bell has not arisen in other star systems. The only thing doubtful is that extraterrestrial Taco Bells have visited Earth.
Ah, the Fertaco Paradox!
Also population 100% robots
That we know of, at least.
Just tried using Google Earth to check for any Taco Bell locations to confirm this. How convenient that it wouldn't let me look anywhere close to Mars. They're keeping something from us!
Kinda neat, but pretty janky. Can't get it to open up in street view.
Sucks for you, the geoguessr scene there is crazy!
I recognize that rock
What do you think will be the first fast food franchise on Mars?
My guess is Subway. Don't need to cook anything and all of the ingredients already have enough preservatives to make the journey.
Subway will also sell franchises to anyone and everyone, regardless of how close another franchise is.
It makes a lot of money for corporate at the expense of fucking over the franchise owners.
So you're saying Subway will be both the first and second fast food restaurants on Mars?
only if you don't count the 25 Starbucks already setting up shop at the landing site
There will be 3, full size starbucks on the ship to Mars. A ship that has only 30 humans.
The Mars franchises are called Bell de la Taco, they have different branding laws on Mars. Lots of red tape.
Are you suggesting that Martians hate fake Mexican food???
I think that may be racist, but I'm not sure towards whom...
There are also no toilets yet on Mars either, so it's probably just as well.
It'd be legendary to be the first person to poo Taco Bell in a hole in the ground on Mars though
Yet.
there are not that much more tacobells outside of US
At some point there will be a race for what fast food chain is the first to go interplanetary
As far as we know, this is a shit post.
There's at least 1 Planet Hollywood, though. Arnold set it up while filming Total Recall on location.
As far as YOU know, mister.
Nooooo
Russell's Taco Bell
~~As far as we know~~, there are 0 Taco Bells on Mars.
FTFY.
Fair enough, but Taco Bell will give you squirts that resemble Jupiter.
I don't know why people keep saying this lol
Are there people out there who think taco bell has anything spicy on the menu?
Spicy? No, it’s just a bunch of garbage “food”
