I dunno. I just snagged the list from their site -- didn't go looking for
others/alternates or go to some other site that might have been put up to prove
a point. If Taco Sloppo is using cellulose (ground up history texts - as I
often accused my school cafeteria of doing) their taco filling is certainly
more tasty than lunch-room grub. 

And, as I have stated here before - Taco Bell is not the premier Taco Stand in
the fats food business. Just the biggest. Del Taco and Taco Tico (Southern
California chains) are *much* better. Nearly any taco truck is better.
