Students Decide Moe's is better than Taco Bell
By Megan Petero
Taco, burritos, and nachos, all for under $10. It’s a high school student’s dream!
However, these options are not scarce in Moore County, NC.
In Aberdeen alone, there are multiple inexpensive Mexican restaurants.
However, there are only two fast-food Mexican restaurants in this area: Taco Bell and Moe’s.
Both restaurants have similar menus, as well as similar prices, but one has to be better than the other.
Of the 50 students polled, 70% (35 students) preferred Moe’s over Taco Bell.
“Moe’s is delicious,” said junior Allyson Patti. “The people who work there are so nice.”
“I prefer Moe’s, but I do like Taco Bell,” said junior Trevor Morgan. “I like the Doritos taco and the Baja Blasts.”
The pie chart to the right is a visual display of Pinecrest students’ preference between Moe’s and Taco Bell.
