Taco Bell's menu hit by nationwide shortages of ingredients
The menu at Taco Bell may be a bit limited these days, with the quick-service restaurant chain warning customers that it might not be able to fulfill their current appetite hankerings.
"Taco Bell employee told me there was a 'national shortage of everything right now,' and I have decided to get my economic news exclusively from drive-thru employees from now on," tweeted one patron of the Mexican-food themed eatery.
More specifically, a multitude of complaints on social media pointed to a lack of beef, chicken, hot sauce and 10-inch tortillas at the Yum Brands division, which runs nearly 7,500 Taco Bells, most of them in the U.S.
"Taco Bell has a 'district-wide shortage of hot sauce...times are tough," tweeted one patron. "For anyone craving Taco Bell tonight, I'll save you the drive, they don't have chicken or beef, national shortage or something. I just ate black beans in a hard shell," complained another in a separate tweet.

"SmartWater" first Va. indictment for theft. Lasts 5 years.
Petersburg man indicted in first case in Va. using liquid nanotechnology called 'SmartWater' - a substance that marks propertyA Petersburg man indicted in the burglary of an Ettrick business is the first person in Virginia to be charged with a crime based on the use of a liquid nanotechnology known as SmartWater CSI — a substance residents or merchants can use to mark property that could be stolen.
Gaines was confirmed as a suspect after police, using a special ultraviolet light, observed that his clothing was covered with smears of a colorless and odorless liquid that he had come in contact with when he allegedly entered the business.
The substance, known as SmartWater, is a traceable liquid that is coded with a forensic technology that contains a unique signature for each user. When brushed or sprayed on, it is undetectable except by ultraviolet light, where it glows yellow-green.
The SmartWater liquid stays on property for a minimum of five years. More than 200 households throughout Chesterfield — primarily in the Bensley, Bayhill Pointe and Mason Woods communities — have used the liquid to mark their various belongings, police said. Police typically seek to have residents use the substance in neighborhoods where burglaries have been a problem.
When applied, the liquid provides information to police about that item’s place of origin.

🤣 1,000 Accomplishments of President Donald J. Trump - no really he had one made 😂
As we sat for the interview, the former president’s press secretary presented us copies of a bound volume: 1,000 Accomplishments of President Donald J. Trump: Highlights of the First Term. On the back cover is an American flag, the presidential seal, and Trump’s thick, jagged signature. The book totals 92 pages and is organized with chapters dedicated to the economy, tax cuts, deregulation, trade, and so on.
Great read. Pay wall.
