As long as the yellow doesn't approach that one state near the middle top, it's all good.

The French sent a key to the bastille to George Washington. It’s framed and hanging on the wall inside his home at mount Vernon.

Taco Bell reportedly testing crispy chicken wings in California just weeks after simplifying menu

Taco Bell has reportedly decided to test out a new menu item as the quick-service restaurant attempts to simplify its menu for online and drive-thru orders.

The Tex-Mex fast-food chain — known for its loosely Mexican-inspired menu — has recently started offering crispy chicken wings at a location in Fullerton, Calif., according to eagle-eyed foodies on social media.

Multiple YouTubers have already visited the Fullerton location to review the fried poultry pieces — made with "bold Mexican seasoning" and served alongside an accompanying "spicy ranch sauce."

Reactions are pretty mixed.

Taco Bell was founded by Glen Bell, a white dude with no Hispanic or Texas heritage. He was born in Lynnwood, California and opened his first restaurant, a hot dog stand, in San Bernardino in the 50's. Learned how to make tacos from a local restaurant. There is no Tex/Mex influence. Less so now since it is owned by Pepsi.

My sophomore year in high school Pepsi/Yum Brands took over our cafeteria. So if you wanted to buy lunch at school your only options were Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, or KFC.

This makes a little sense then. My first high school was really basic and pretty much just a slice of pizza from a local place. But when I switched schools we had Pizza Hut personal pizzas and I think a few scattered Taco Bell items.

The cool one was the school teamed with Miguel's Jr. and we had a few of their menu items.

taco bell is my go to fast food because it's easy to eat vegetarian there. my daughter heard a rumor, however, that they're going to get rid of their vegetarian items. haven't seen anything official yet and hope it's not true. they dumped the fiesta taco salad already, which wasn't a smart idea.
