Fast Food Fails That'll Make You Laugh Out Loud

8. Extra Sauce

Order Details and Observations Order Status: Taco Bell

Average Cost: Free*

The client received an abundance of additional sauce, just as requested. However, the sheer volume of plastic waste is quite shocking. It's important to note that serving such excess sauce can be discouraging for the branch owners, both from a financial standpoint and concerning environmental impact.

While it's great to accommodate customer requests, the balance between customer satisfaction and sustainability is crucial. Excessive packaging not only contributes to waste but can also affect the overall dining experience.

 

Taco Bell and Sustainability Efforts

Topic: Extra Sauce

In 2015, Taco Bell made the switch from plastic bags to paper ones, a step towards reducing plastic waste. However, it's important to note that takeout wrappers are not currently recyclable.

On a positive note, Taco Bell has committed to making all of their packaging recyclable by 2025. This initiative is a significant move towards sustainability, and it is hoped that they are not alone in this pursuit.
