Have You Ever Wondered How Much "I'll Take One Of Everything" Would Cost?

Everything on the Taco Bell menu.

Have You Ever Wondered How Much "I'll Take One Of Everything" Would Cost?

If you're anything like me, ordering at a place with a big menu can be overwhelming at best. There's just so much to choose from... And at a place like Taco Bell, you know everything is good.

I use the term "good" loosely, of course. Because (as you probably also already know) everything at Taco Bell tastes almost exactly the same. I respect their creativity, but it's all just nacho/shredded cheese and meat in different packages. Also, generally nothing at Taco Bell is good for you. Again, respecting their creativity: There are a few items on their menu that are better for you, but still not great.

But, truth be told, everything that I've said is kind of the whole point of Taco Bell. Nobody's ever said, "I'm really trying to watch my figure, so I think I'll just get a light dinner from Taco Bell."

Nobody's ever said, "You know who has the best burrito in the area, hands down? Taco Bell. That's who."

We eat there because it's the best kind of junk food there is: Cheesy, warm, fulfilling junk food whose calorie count you aren't even thinking about because the second you turned into the parking lot, you had already given up.

So, staring at the Taco Bell menu and all the wonderful comfort food options it gives you, have you ever wondered, "What if I just got one of everything? What if I really just said 'Yeah, I'll take the whole menu. Yeah, I'm serious. Why would I make this up?' Would they do it? And would it cost my entire life savings?"

Maybe you haven't — but lucky for you, I have. For one, because when I can't decide on any menu I like to image I can order one of everything just to be safe. For two, because if I was ever filthy rich, these kinds of things are what I imagine I would spend my money on.

Because I like to be prepared should I ever be a billionaire pop-princess, I have calculated this scenario based upon information given on Taco Bell's website. These are prices that vary by location so it might be a little different at your favorite Taco Bell, just fair warning (in case you ever decide to take on this challenge, in which case my contact information is below as I would love to know that this actually happened in real life).

This price also assumes that you ordered every item by it's cheapest option; for instance, a beef quesarito instead of a steak quesarito. Additionally, it counts each drink individually by flavor, weird sides I didn't even know you could order (like chips and guacamole), and duplicates of items that are offered both a la carte and as part of a combo.

*drum roll, please*

$628.91

I can imagine going into Taco Bell, saying "I'll take one of everything", and spending this kind of money on fast food would feel like this:

But sadly, I imagine it ending more like this:

I guess for now, we'll just stick to the happy hour one-dollar deals and Live Mas by saving ourselves $628.91.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
