‘While this is truly a travesty, the police can’t do anything about this.’

A shortage of tacos at Taco Bell may be a “travesty," but it certainly isn't a good reason to call the police. That was the message from officers after they received a call from one disgruntled customer in Louisiana.


“It's been a while, but another 'we can't make this stuff up' story," the Slidell Police Department wrote in a Facebook post. “Somebody called in to complain that the Taco Bell on Gause Boulevard ran out of both hard and soft taco shells. While this is truly a travesty, the police can't do anything about this."

First of all, they're called tortillas, sir. Also, this is taking it a little too far y'all.

Police added that they hoped stocks would be replenished “in time for Taco Tuesday."

While police may not have leapt to deal with this particular emergency, it certainly struck a chord with people.

One follower on Facebook commented, “someone needs to call you guys about that Ice Cream Machine at McDonalds. It's always broken."

“They were absolutely right in calling. I went yesterday and yes, they were out completely. I told the lady to just change the name to Burrito / Nacho Bell," another added.

Anyway, we all love a good taco, so it makes sense that they run out of tortillas, but it is important that we maintain calm during an emergency.

Pete Hegseth Just Issued A Mandate To Treat Male Soldiers For Testosterone Deficiencies—And Everyone Is Making The Same Point

Critics fired back with the same point after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that service members age 30 and older will now be screened annually for testosterone deficiency in a bid to improve military readiness.

The decision to screen active-duty service members for testosterone levels and offering testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) when appropriate is part of an effort to keep U.S. troops on the "leading edge of lethality," Hegseth said in a video posted to X captioned "The High-T Department of War."
