The TB cravings box is the GOAT of value meals - and you nailed it with the exact same “most food possible per dollar” strategy that I do: Crunchwrap, 5 layer burrito, potatoes. That Crunchwrap on its own by itself is $5 on the menu - so basically everything else in the meal is *free.* Pair it with the rewards points for ordering on the app and you can easily score free nachos bellgrande’s every once in a while to make a hell of a feast for a couple bucks.
Agree with the TB cravings deal. Mine is with a black bean Crunchwrap, black bean 5 layer burrito, Diablo sauce, cinnamon twists, & Mountain Dew zero sugar.
@@MrHypedHippo I'm not salty. I guess I came off that way, and shill does have a really negative connotation. I actually really like his videos and his personality. I like the various criteria he uses and his overall testing methodology. But it just seems a bit odd how much he focuses on Taco Bell and how often it comes out on top, at least from the videos I've seen from him. And to be fair, all the talk of Taco Bell has made me crave it like no other. So if he is a shill, he's doing it right.
@@bill4376 its ab how much value you get from the meal for $5 and an extra side is extra value so fair game🤷🏻♂️ Wendy’s also gives you a side of nugs with their side of fries with their deals too
I noticed a lot of offerings went up a tier! Bacon double stack used to be a $5 Biggie bag option but now it’s part of the $6 Biggie bag. I honestly just get a Dave’s Triple when I go 😂
I stopped going to Wendy's because of atrocious service. At least at the ones near me. I used to work fast food, when they still paid 7.25, it baffles me that workers now get paid double that and they are completely incompetent or just don't care to do basic things.
@@CadgerChristmasLightShow well they have to adjust that for inflation, like in the 1800s 1k is now a different price not still worth 1k. And I think people by you are just assholes then because Wendy’s by me has SOME of the best service
Taco Bell is also very customizable with a ton of non "Value" options, Which puts it way ahead for me. Getting two beefy melt burritos for $2 each leads to an immensely filling value meal.
Alot of places have auto soda machines, meaning that they are intentionally shorting people ounces despite how cheap soda is vs. advertised amounts. Which is crazy to me.
It's a crazy good deal, you can customize any part of it too. Like you can do a BBQ or chicken sandwich instead of a burger, 2 wraps as your sides, double up on fries / hushpuppies, pretty much anything they've got. And their shakes are gigantic
Sam I love how thorough and responsible you are with the content of your videos. I can always tell you’ve put a lot of thought and effort into them! Really excited about the next video!
Taco Bell's $5 cravings box is a great deal. I calculated it would cost over $13 at menu prices if you picked the most expensive items. McDonald's usually has a 20 nuggets and 2 large fries deal on their app which is about $5.70 in my area and would cost double that at menu prices. I think the Little Caesars large pepperoni pizza for $5.99 is still one of the best values and you could easily share that with someone else. Subway always has a BOGO coupon code that many people don't know about and you can get two footlongs for less than $8 using that.
subway hack use the BOGO coupon and make the first footlong how you like and the second a spicy italian with no veg, veg goes bad in the fridge. then tomorrow at lunch you throw that puppy in a microwave and boom hot italian sando
It amazes me how people don’t use food apps/order online …it’s 2023 - I literally have almost every fast food app in my area.. the deals on them alone are worth it. Fun fact: Little Caesar’s does a “Make It A Meal” deal when you order the Italian Cheese Bread ($5) + 2 liter of soda ($2.99) automatically when you go to checkout - it goes to $6 even. Pair that with a couple hot n readys and it’s a steal!
My Taco Bell raised it to the $6 box online only for the last few months and now all of them nearby increased to $9 box. I like Taco Bell but for that price. Might as well go somewhere else
I started watching with the taco bell documentary. I have to say I am so surprised that this channel isn’t a 500k+ subscriber channel. Gives me super size me with project farm vibes. Love it!
I really enjoyed that comparison and I agree with the evaluation completely. Love the Taco Bell craving box options. And the cheesy G is without question the best fast food item out there!!! Can’t wait for the next episode at the TB head quarters!
Not that you need more ideas - but if you do - comparing kids meals would be interesting. Which places could an adult eat kids meal that would be filling?
@@therealsamreid i have seen some people that talk about how they are sometimes a better value than adult meals - so thought it might be up your alley! Carter binged some Studio Revue episodes this afternoon. You are doing a great job!
The taco bell cravings box is an even better deal where I live since it's actually $5. Nothing cheaper than it actually, so the $5 trio is still around as well for some reason.
as someone who obsesses where I'm going to spend $5 or less on a quick convenient fast food bite...this is SO helpful! and you thought of everything, even subtracting the weight of the plastic bowl when measuring the potatoes! fantastic informative vid!!
In my location the taco bell cravings box is actually only $5 and it's an absolutely amazing deal for the amount, price, and taste. UPDATE: it just changed to 5.99 😭
@@demetri58 yea the box that would be $5 in 2018 is now $9 with the same items and the $5 box now only has Taco Burrito and Drink . They used to come with Taco , Burrito , Chalupa (whatever you wanted ) + nacho fries or anything with drink now costs $9 instead of $5
Wendy’s has been my choice for a quick a cheap filling meal, I found the best value you get is when ordering for 2 or more and taking advantage of the online/app promos. I usually pickup two 5 dollar biggie bags and upgrade to a large drink and fries each are then like 7 or so dollars making me eligible for their 3 dollars off promo so in the end I pay 12 bucks for everything. Sad that fast food has gotten so expensive that a small family can easily spend 50 or more dollars on what should realistically be a 30 dollar meal, so I’m hopeful that more places implement these value oriented deals.
I just cooked an 8oz filet mignon and baked potato for $11 😊. Fast food is way over priced now but very addictive, I could taste a QP with cheese right now thinking about it.
I had never seen or heard of you before this video. I watched the whole thing kind of in the background and I must say I'm impressed. After the video ended I was surprised to say the least, that you had under a few hundred thousand subscribers.
The taco bell cravings box is such a good deal! And because you have to use the app you get the rewards points anyway for free food later. Of all the fast food places, i feel the best about eating at taco bell. The choices are relatively more healthy (in my opinion) and as long as i dont overeat, i dont feel super crappy. In this day and age it’s hard to balance price, convenience, health, and satisfaction.
everyone on here must be blessed. the Taco Bell in my town is so god awful bad. They cheap out on the ingredients. the food is old. the workers are slow. I refuse to go to it any longer. It's like this all hours and has been for years and years. The next closest is like 20 or so miles which is just more than I'm will to drive for fast food when I have other options. Wendys, McDonalds or Long John Silver...
Been eating the taco bell cravings for years cause of its value. I usually get one 1000+ calories box which I share for only 5 bucks. You can't be leaking all of our secrets man.
I forgot the name of the restaurant i went to while i was in TN and you actually reminded me of it showing cookout LMAO thanks for fixing the mind block
As a British person looking at this they all seem like ridiculous deals. We wouldn't get a meal like any if them for less than 15 pounds (Like $20 I think?)
i cant eat fast food because of celiac disease and i probably wouldnt anyway because im vegan too but you make these videos so interesting and I love watching them :D
Great video, this was my first video I've seen on your channel and I'll definitely be subbing to see more content like this. One suggestion, it would have been nice to see a visualization for the calories per dollar since I'd argue that's more important than just raw weight.
Once Wendy's gave us an entire bucket of chicken nuggets for FREE it was incredible to be honest. I think so anyways because when I asked my dad right now he says he doesn't remember, might be my memory but I remember us all being shocked when we got a bucket of chicken nuggets.
Where I am, the only fast food restaurant that regularly offers a value meal is Burger King. You get 2 small burgers (they vary which kind every so often; the best is when they offer the Big King Jr.) or 2 junior chickens (or 1 of each), small fries or small onion rings and a small drink. If you eat it in the restaurant, you can refill your drink as many times as you want to. Less than 2 years ago, they offered it for $4.99, then raised it to $5.99 and now it's $6.49 (Canadian dollars, of course). It's the best deal if you want to get relatively full without spending a lot of money. I just had it yesterday, but I wasn't wearing a lab coat when I ate it.
There's a hole in a wall burger joint that I go to, a hamburger combo is $6 but burger is flane grilled fresh, and exaggerate on fries, kid you not almost a pound of fries, with a medium drink. Very delicious and priced perfect.
Wendy’s enthusiast here. Where I am located, you can also upgrade the fries to a large for 60 cents or so, or substitute the fries for a chilly or a baked potato at no extra cost I think. There is also the Frosty Key Tag that you can use as well.
The taco bell mobile box for 5.49 with the gordita crunch, 5 layer, potatoes, and baja blast is amazing, also when you order that on mobile 2-3 times you get enough points for a reward, the best reward being the nachos bellgrande at 700 calories. Insane....
I absolutely love the $5 cravings box at Taco Bell, you can upgrade to a large drink for 10 cents which would have made the margin of victory even bigger.
Wendy's fries are slept on for sure! Maybe down the line some sort of Tex-Mex bowl comparison would be fun (Qdoba vs Chipotle vs Moes) using the Taco Bell Cantina Power Bowl as a control. Great to see you're doing well and making great content Sam!
im just here to see how many folks say you're owned by tacobell or something like that. as always pretty nice video, and thanks for the cheerful message at the end of each video. much love.
Solid research, I'm gonna have to check out the cravings box now. Here are some other meals/deals that rank pretty high on calories per $: -McDonalds app deal: "Free Med fries with $2 purchase" + $2.49 McDouble (+ optional $1 any size drink) -BK app deal: "Free fries w purchase" + $3.59 Bacon Double Cheeseburger (+ optional $1.49 4pc nugs or $1.69 chk jr) -Popeyes $6.99 big box (2 pc chicken, 2 sides, biscuit + thru app free drink) -Arbys 2 for 7 -Subway coupon codes can be found online, $5.99 ANY footlong in my area. You can get a $13 signature footlong too.
Wendy’s used to be you could get a bacon double stack for the 4 for 4 and get tomato lettuce and Mayo for free. And the upgrade for fries and soda to a large is like 1.30$ so for like 5.30 a large meal plus nuggets
I’ll say it…. Better than bill nye
This is the highest of praise
I second that.
Well done bruv.
He has gotten real bitter since the days of hosting his show.
Bill Nye the Science Guy or Bill Nye the Feelings Guy?
@@therealsamreid not really. His new shows are kinda lame.
can confirm "my cravings box" is an absolute staple, amazing value
Mine used to have a hard shell taco, but they took that out of the cravings box.
Yeah as soon as I saw the details on that, I knew it definitely was winning
Depending on what you get it could cost like 12$ individually it’s crazy
yea the deluxe cravings box (at least when i worked there) included a steak chalupa and that alone was about the same price as the box
@@Earth2McKay i remember when they had stuff for less than a dollar and they were giant burritos lol. I ate so much Taco Bell in highschool
The TB cravings box is the GOAT of value meals - and you nailed it with the exact same “most food possible per dollar” strategy that I do: Crunchwrap, 5 layer burrito, potatoes.
That Crunchwrap on its own by itself is $5 on the menu - so basically everything else in the meal is *free.*
Pair it with the rewards points for ordering on the app and you can easily score free nachos bellgrande’s every once in a while to make a hell of a feast for a couple bucks.
one day i discovered this randomly and now i go weekly to TB lmao
THEY TOOK THE NACHOS BELL GRANDE OFF THE REWARDS MENU!!!! I'm so upset I do the exact same thing as you and I was deastated when I saw it was gone
I get the same combo as well, absolutely goated 10/10
Agree with the TB cravings deal. Mine is with a black bean Crunchwrap, black bean 5 layer burrito, Diablo sauce, cinnamon twists, & Mountain Dew zero sugar.
Used to do this, but now that they raised the price I order 5 rice and bean burritos. Costs just as much, and is more food
I appreciate how this man até Taco Bell for a month- And still gives it such high ratings in taste. A true soldier💪🏻
Or a true shill. I am still not convinced he's not a Taco Bel plant.

Using the Cookout Tray as a control was a genius move
Not really because cookout gives you an extra side
@@bill4376 its ab how much value you get from the meal for $5 and an extra side is extra value so fair game🤷🏻♂️ Wendy’s also gives you a side of nugs with their side of fries with their deals too
@Dahm45 I love cookout sometimes I get the barbecue sandwich I like the shakes too and hush puppies
Cookout is $7 for a tray though?
@@Reefer-Rampage69 cookout isn't the only one there with 7$ lol
Wendy's has really gone downhill in my opinion. They always had great value but sadly they've really cut down on what they offered in 4 for $4s
The fries always keep me coming back though! 🍟
I noticed a lot of offerings went up a tier! Bacon double stack used to be a $5 Biggie bag option but now it’s part of the $6 Biggie bag. I honestly just get a Dave’s Triple when I go 😂

@@ohainickifyaaaaaaand it’s gone
You can switch out the drink on Wendy's value combos for a small frosty, which significantly ups it's value in my opinion.
I tired a chocolate frosty for the first time and it tasted like cardboard lol
Didn’t know that! Would definitely up the weight too haha
@@bigrod359 chocolate ice cream in general taste like cardboard even choco milk. You should of know better lol

wow the cookout deal sounds incredible, 7.50 for a good looking burger, chicken wrap, fries, drink, that sounds great
It's a crazy good deal, you can customize any part of it too. Like you can do a BBQ or chicken sandwich instead of a burger, 2 wraps as your sides, double up on fries / hushpuppies, pretty much anything they've got. And their shakes are gigantic
The food is great too. We have one an hour and a half from us and will still go out of our way to go. We always hit them up when we pass one too
Couple bucks extra turns the drink into a milkshake, 40 something flavors/mixes, so good
Cookout is goated

When you do your next video could you include a graphic with a total of the meal’s macros?
The answers we actually need
Solid research, I'm gonna have to check out the cravings box now.
Here are some other meals/deals that rank pretty high on calories per $:
-McDonalds app deal: "Free Med fries with $2 purchase" + $2.49 McDouble (+ optional $1 any size drink)
-BK app deal: "Free fries w purchase" + $3.59 Bacon Double Cheeseburger (+ optional $1.49 4pc nugs or $1.69 chk jr)
-Popeyes $6.99 big box (2 pc chicken, 2 sides, biscuit + thru app free drink)
-Arbys 2 for 7
-Subway coupon codes can be found online, $5.99 ANY footlong in my area. You can get a $13 signature footlong too.
I kind of feel like I just watched myself eat a bunch of fast food because I would’ve scored everything identical to what you did lol
Me while watching: i feel like he should also do it without the drink
Sam at the end: “and here are the scores without the drink”
Read my mind lol
I was curious how that would turn out!!
Yup a Diet Coke has 0 calories.
Omg now you got the Burger King theme song stuck in my head 😂
I am - and I cannot stress this enough - SO sorry lol
TB's trio combo 👌👌 glad they did it
It's a bit more than 5 but the $6.50 Big Mac combo is my go-to. Somehow they still have it on the app even here in Los Angeles.
great one ! 😁
Wendy’s used to be you could get a bacon double stack for the 4 for 4 and get tomato lettuce and Mayo for free. And the upgrade for fries and soda to a large is like 1.30$ so for like 5.30 a large meal plus nuggets
