I’ve moved back to my country of birth and Taco Bell seems to be a thing here now.

I’ve tried the quesadillas and the crunch supreme and it’s been… life changing.

What else should I be trying?

    Chalupas (I think these are basically the same as their gorditas but with a fried shell)

    And honestly their regular, basic beef soft tacos are pretty good, especially with some fire sauce (or whatever your preferred level of spice is).

      Fucking chalupas. I’ve tried to recreate the dough at home but they come out far more like actual bread than the pancake like texture they have.

    So many people shaming OP in here 😅

    They never said they eat it all the time. Calm down everyone; let them enjoy themselves.

    The crunchwrap supreme and burrito supreme I think encompasses the whole menu of flavor from Taco Bell.

    But for me, who remembers multiple tacos for 99 cents from Taco Bell: their basic and unmodified tacos with hot sauce is the only thing I need from Taco Bell.

    A bidet.

    But seriously - you and others already mentioned the quesadillas, so I’ll add pintos and cheese as a side.

    It’s just beans and cheese and their sauce in a little bowl but it’s good.

    Also, do they still have meximelts? Can’t remember if they did away with them or not. Oh and gorditas.

    Try not eating taco bell.

    But on the real, anything with a chalupa shell(deep fried gordita/flatbread) just elevates stuff there. Neither their gordita or chalupa are traditional in any sense of the word but fried bread is so good imo.

    If you can get their potatoes when they are absolutely fresh, they are fire but if they’ve been sitting for any amount of time, the just taste like breaded cardboard.

    The quesadillas. Again. And again.

    I can’t stop eating them. I prefer their quesadillas over authentic ones tbh. It’s the sauce! And the baja blast!

    Breakfast.

    People laughed about it when they announced that they were doing breakfast, but I love to try weird foods so I thought I’d give it a shot.

    No joke, the Steak Breakfast Crunchwrap is my favorite piece of fast food breakfast. And (I’m mildly ashamed to admit) I’ve eaten A LOT of fast food breakfast in my life. It’s especially good if you ask for extra creamy jalapeño sauce.

    Pretty much any time I have to be somewhere early in the morning these days—I’ve become quite lazy in my permanent work-from-home schedule—I motivate myself with Taco Bell breakfast.
