This Fan Tracked Her Baby’s Growth Using Taco Bell Menu Items
Pregnant women today love sharing on social media how big their baby is growing week-by-week. We’ve all seen the fruit and vegetable comparisons telling you your baby is the size of an avocado, but we’ve never seen a comparison quite like this before. Kentucky resident and Taco Bell fan Kelsey McKain really wanted a unique, creative way to document her pregnancy journey, so naturally she chose Taco Bell.
“I was brainstorming with my family and my brother-in-law suggested Taco Bell and I thought ‘Of course!’ It seemed so obvious. After that I looked through the Taco Bell menu and created a week-by-week spreadsheet with how big the baby would be and chose a corresponding Taco Bell menu item. I’ve been working from that every week,” Kelsey said. And Baby McKain seems to agree with mama’s choice. According to Kelsey, her baby girl moves around like crazy after she eats it.
