Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! That perfectly solved my issue; though I'm not entirely sure how to grep the value of all keys without knowing what they keys are named, but that much I can figure out. I really appreciate the fast help! Thanks again ;)

Update

Figured it out: 

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
use JSON::XS;
use File::Slurp qw(read_file);

my $lines = decode_json( read_file("test.json") );
my @results = grep { grep { $_ =~ /taco/ } values %$_ } @{ $lines };

print Dumper \@results;

Thanks again hdb!
