But Taco Bell already is so spicy it causes us instant diarrhea. They are going to add more spices and ruin our buttholes even more?

Taco Bell isn't spicy at all.

That Fire Roasted sauce they had a while back was pretty tasty. Was mad when they got rid of it.
 
back when I used to eat Taco Bell, I would alternate each taco with a different sauce. Mild, Hot, Fire, repeat. I miss those days
 
Taco Bell's 'Fire' sauce is basically the 'Low-Medium' of most wing places I've been to. So I'm not expecting their 'Diablo' to knock my socks off.

Edit: Though I just realized I haven't touched Taco Bell in almost a decade. Maybe they've improved the spiciness in that time.

Meh, I'll still top my tacos with Blair's sauce.

:(

My body rejects spicey/hot stuff now, I have to have a sit down moment before thinking about the fallout that the goodness it first brings.

I have to keep things relatively bland now if I want to survive the day at work without pain!
 
Meh, I don't like putting sauce on my tacos but I might try this just to be able to say I did since its a limited time thing.
 
people will still complain it's not hot enough even though as a business they have to cater to the lowest common denominator and don't want children (or adults) actually crying irl because it's too hot

wow, that joke on the green sauce is kind of fucked up, isn't it

*sigh* really?


Anyway I look forward to trying it, I usually like a bit of mild and fire.
It all depends on the taste of the new on, I love heat but it has to have taste and not be hot for the sake of hot.

Wouldn't be a GAF Taco Bell thread without a few cliche diarrhea jokes...
 
Can anybody confirm this is available today?

Nothing on their website and no press releases, but it was supposed to go nationwide today.

Had it this morning with the free Biscuit Taco. Not nearly the spiciest thing ever, but for Taco Bell? Pretty damn good. Nice heat and taste. Had to ask for it, and was handed a handful of the packets from behind the counter.
 
Sounds like a parody of a gay child coming out to his/her parents.

This is exactly what it is.

"Mom, Dad... I'm gay."
"Mom, Dad... I'm green."

It's a play on coming out. Whether that's offensive or not I don't know, but I'm surprised the joke is going over so many heads in this thread.

Are you telling me there was a sauce hotter than Hot this whole time?! I didn't even know of the existence of Fire. God damn you Taco Bell.

I guess I'll be trying Fire and Diablo next time through.

Fire has always been around. I really want to grab some Diablo after work today :).

Other companies get away with making grown ass people cry, why can't Taco Bell? BW3's Mango Habanero is my jam but that fucker is pretty freaking hot, and I consider myself a pretty hefty heat-seeker.

They're not forcing this down anyones gullet, so just give us the option already to order "FUCK MY EYES ARE BURNING AND I CAN'T BREATHE" hot sauce please.

I took it as a play off "I'm pregnant" instead of "I'm gay."
 
Just had some-(thanks Steve the new intern for getting the office lunch)

More apparent spice than Fire- actually made me sweat-but not enough to be overwhelming- I enjoyed it more than Fire- will never replace my standby taco sauce:cholula, but its the best they have now-easily.

edit:not tomato-ey

I bet it won't be hot at all. I'm always disappointed.

Or pregnant, or engaged.
Or going to college, or just about anything that kids say to parents. Different for everybody I guess.
 

Rest

All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
I've been wondering what to eat for lunch today, I guess now I know. I remember back when the current mild sauce was called medium, and I could barely eat it. As I got older, I started adding more packets, and eventually moved up to hot and the Fire. After years of making my own chili, and adding piquant spices to my cooking, I've come to barely even be aware of the heat of Fire. So, I look forward to Diablo sauce.

wow, that joke on the green sauce is kind of fucked up, isn't it
In what way?

Gives all the fucks
Guess I'll have to try these on the Spicy Doritos tacos I get from them at least once a month. I remember putting the fire sauce on the Volcano tacos they had a few years back.

Tried some today. It's definitely hotter than the Fire sauce but it isn't unbearably hot or anything. It didn't seem as thick as their other sauces either. I'll probably stick with Fire since I've really grown to enjoy the taste of it, even if it doesn't provide much heat. But the Diablo sauce isn't bad at all.

LMFAO

No... it's not. Stop looking for something to be offended about.

I hope it actually has some flavor and isn't some gimmicky "look! we made a really HOT sauce!" sauce.

They should just bring back volcano sauce. That stuff was pretty tasty.

The Aji Panca is not a very hot pepper. The Ingredient's lead me to believe their new diablo sauce will be what most places serve as a low tier sauce. Looks like they went with Chipotle to try and give it some heat then dumbed it down with the far milder aji Panca
 
Where's Vince McMahon? He sold me on using Volcano Sauce with every TB offering many threads ago.

I received a sneak peek Diablo packet pre-May 5. Seemed to have more pepper? It was okay. I want Volcano though ...

Discontinuing the volcano menu is the biggest fast food sin in the history of the world
