Ah! You have probably been wondering (along with everyone else) just where we went to eat for that first meal on US soil. And the answer: the Taco Bell closest to the Detroit Airport. The food we had all missed the most during our journey was Mexican food. And Taco Bell was a sure bet and offered the right amount of America to suit our hunger.

From dinner at the "Hong Kong-Mexico Society" to attempts at making enchiladas and tacos in Amsterdam and Scotland with more than a few missing ingredients, we had been fantasizing about good ol' Taco Bell--the one fast food chain we didn't find on the road. Unlike the movie "Demolition Man, " Taco Bell has not won the international fast food wars (that's a toss up between McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Burger King). In fact, we understand that they only exist in the United states and Australia (where they serve margaritas made with Midori liqueur).
