At some point in the last year or so, Taco Bueno introduced a menu of healthier items it refers to as Taco Bueno Choice or BC. I generally like to avoid fast food establishments, but my business partner occasionally itches for Taco Bueno's Beef Muchaco Combo meal. He is still young enough to be on his parent's health care plan. I predict he will change his fast food ways sometime within the next ten years, but I digress.
I was pleasantly surprised to find the BC menu during our first visit to Taco Bueno together. It includes lower fat options like the BC Chicken Fajita Taco and the BC Steak Fajita Taco -- both served without cheese.
I decided to try the only vegetarian item on the menu, the BC Vegetarian Black Burrito. I scarfed it down as my business partner and I discussed how to rank higher on Google search for Dallas SEO company.
It is comprised of fat-free black beans, cilantro rice and a tortilla. If you are interested in trying this item, make sure you order off the BC menu; Taco Bueno also offers a regular black been burrito that includes cheese and sour cream.
How Does the BC Vegetarian Black Bean Burrito Stack Up?
The burrito is tasty and filling. According to the nutrition information on Taco Bueno's website, a BC Vegetarian Black Bean Burrito will add 440 to your daily caloric intake. It has 10 grams of fat, 780 milligrams of sodium, 71 grams of carbohydrates, 10 grams of fiber, and 15 grams of protein.
The Taco Bueno BC Vegetarian Black Bean Burrito is marginally Spa Leonard approved. I appreciate its high fiber and protein content; however, it could do without so much sodium. But sodium is king across the board in American restaurant establishment, and no reasonable person would expect otherwise from a fast food joint.
Avoid fast food if you can. If you can't, and you find yourself at Taco Bueno, go ahead and try something off the BC menu.
Yours in Health,
Leo
