College students generally are quite familiar with fast food. Fast food restaurants are providing quick, easily-affordable meals to students which are cheap and on the go and thus have developed a formidable presence around college towns; some even run their joints on the campuses.

One of the most distinguished of these at the University is Taco Bell, with an articulate location on the first floor of Talley Student Center. Nevertheless though students have their quick meals of tacos and burritos but still the restaurant has come under fire on a national level.

A woman from California has brought a false-advertising lawsuit against the Taco Bell Company, arguing that the meat filling in their tacos is actually only thirty five percent ground beef.

Attorney W. Daniel Miles III discussed the figures stating that research showed the rest of the meat to include substances like water, wheat, modified corn starch, oats and an anti-dusting agent.

Taco Bell did not respond to the suit immediately, but when it did, it was a firmly defensive stance. The company on last Friday ran a full page ad in numerous high-profile publications, including Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

The ad and subsequent press release had the lead line stating "Thank you for suing us." This was followed by Taco Bell's official stance on what they assured customers comprised their beef. The company vowed to have eighty eight percent ground beef, with the remaining twelve percent being the secret recipe in their meat.

Greg Creed, the president of Taco Bell vouched for the secret recipe, promising that it was made up of spices and other ingredients added to bring in flavor.
