Taco Fight Night, presented by Comcast

As we reported on Tuesday, an Alabama law firm is suing Taco Bell over the actual beef content of their beef, all alleging that it is only 35 percent actual beef.

Things look grim for Bell. But then, two days later, they’ve announced they’re swinging back with a countersuit against the firm, claiming that their beef is 88 percent beefy.

Both sides are claiming to have studies and science on their side. Only a legal battle can settle this … and our bloodlust.

It’s a Taco Fight, ladies and gentlemen! We’ve got ourselves a Taco Fight.

‘Beefy’ is a state of mind, really

MacDonald’s maple syrup crisis may be over, but there’s a new fast food battle looming on the horizon.

A Montgomery, Alabama-based law firm is suing Taco Bell for their egregious use of the word “beef” to describe their brown-flavored meat filling. According to the firm’s test results, the mixture is only 35 percent beef, which is about 35 percent more beef than we ever suspected was inside of it.

Taco Bell is already gearing up their defense, and they’re opting for the “Miracle on 34th Street”: “We’re happy that the millions of customers we serve every week agree.”

That’s right: if enough people say it’s beef, then what choice does the government have but to agree?
