Completely glancing over the fact that there is exactly zero Mexican items at Taco Bell. Everything there is some kinda bastardized American Midwest slop. I think the only actual Spanish on the memo is “gordita” which loosely translates into fat bitch little fatty (really out of practice with my Spanish), which seems fitting.
Taco Bell sells tacos that are reasonably close to Mexican street tacos. Obviously not as good, but it’s a small soft tortilla with fillings, that’s what you get in Mexico too.
Burritos are also Mexican, though they’re not as common across the whole country as tacos. The modern burrito comes from Ciudad Juarez right on the border with Texas.
Most of the rest of the Taco Bell menu isn’t authenitcally Mexican, but I’d say their core menu items are tacos and burritos.
But little fatty is just a pure translation. It actually just means something closer to “thick” as in “that tortilla is a little thick”…“esa tortilla esta gordita…hey! Ya se! Porque no les ponemos “gorditas”! Vale?” "Orale compadre, entonces ya quedamos, son gorditas! Son o estan? Son! Luego que tal si algun pendejo en China No’s traduce a estan y empiesan a discriminar? No no, son gorditas. Okay pies, entonces so gorditas y ya OK? Ok! Porque cabrones dices OK? Quiero decir que estoy de acuerdo contigo. Today la genre dice okay!
And real gorditas are nothing like the taco bell version. They got their name because they’re a smaller but much thicker tortilla, similar to an arepa, split down the middle and stuffed with meat.

Ehhh… “gordita” does not translate to “Fat Bitch” but “Little Faty”…

As an Arepa enjoyer, that sounds tasty!
