Yo Quiero Taco Bell—But Not Always
Taco Bell is always full of surprises. Some menu items become instant fan favorites, while others miss the mark entirely. Love them or leave them, there’s no denying that certain creations spark serious debate. Let’s dive into the Taco Bell lineup and look at the items worth skipping and the ones we all love. Where do your favorites land?
1. Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme
This Crunchwrap delivers on structure but divides opinions on taste. Some love its hearty, plant-based filling, while others find the black beans too subtle. If you’re used to Taco Bell’s punchy flavors, you might have to reach for the sriracha to bring this creation to life!

2. Bean Burrito
Beans are great. Beans with nothing else? Less great. This is a soft, warm wrap filled with refried beans, with a few onions thrown in as if they’ll magically save it. Spoiler: they don’t. It’s filling, sure, but more in the way of a meal you settle for rather than one you crave.
3. Doritos Locos Tacos
A great taco needs balance—seasoned beef, crisp lettuce, shredded cheese, and a sturdy shell. But in this Taco, the Doritos steal the show. The result is a snack-food explosion that overpowers everything else, turning what should be a taco into something closer to a bag of chips with toppings.
4. Spicy Potato Soft Taco
Potatoes in a taco? Genius—or maybe not. While the seasoned potatoes are a fan favorite, some feel the flavors don’t quite pop without modifications. Try adding extra sauce or swapping the tortilla for a crunchier option.

5. Breakfast Salsa
Salsa for breakfast sounds great—until you realize it’s more of a milder drizzle than a bold dip. Some enjoy its light tang, but others wish it had more kick. If your taste buds crave adventure, this might not be the star of your morning taco lineup.

6. Cheesy Roll Up
Ever wanted to eat something that tasted like it almost had potential? The Chicken Quesadilla delivers just that. It’s cheesy, it’s warm, it’s… fine. But if you’re expecting spice, crunch, or something exciting, prepare for disappointment, as it’s more of a quiet background snack than a headliner.

7. Mexican Pizza
Nostalgia has a way of making things seem better than they are, and this item is proof. Fans once raved about its perfect blend of sauce, cheese, and tortillas, but the reality is underwhelming. The tortillas turn soggy in no time, and the sauce lacks the bold flavor it once had. It’s familiar, just not the classic worth craving.
8. Chicken Quesadilla
If you’ve ever microwaved a tortilla with shredded cheese and called it a snack, congratulations! You’ve already made the Cheesy Roll Up at home. It’s comforting, sure, but for something you can recreate in seconds, it’s not exactly a Taco Bell highlight.

9. Nachos BellGrande
A tray of cheesy, loaded nachos sounds like a safe bet—at first. The first few bites deliver flavor, but as the toppings sit, the crunch disappears, leaving behind a pile of soggy chips. The taste is still there, but the texture quickly turns disappointing. If you’re going for this one, eat fast.
10. Orange Cream Pop Freeze
It looks like a creamsicle in a cup, but the experience leans more candy than creamy. The orange flavor is there, but so is a heavy dose of syrupy sweetness. It’s fun for a few sips—then it starts to feel like too much.

1. Baja Blast
This neon-green elixir isn’t just soda—it’s a cultural icon. Originally exclusive to Taco Bell (until demand brought it to stores), its tropical-mountain-mystery flavor washes down tacos like nothing else. Sipping it feels like summer, even when it’s 2 AM in a drive-thru.
2. Crunchwrap Supreme
One hand on the wheel, the other gripping a perfectly wrapped hexagon of glory. Unlike tacos that self-destruct upon impact, this marvel keeps every bite intact. A crisp tostada, melty cheese, and seasoned beef locked inside a warm tortilla fortress—there’s no going back after this first bite.
3. Nacho Fries
Taco Bell clearly enjoys playing hard to get. They give us Nacho Fries, let us fall in love, and then rip them away like some cruel social experiment. Yet, we keep coming back. One dip into that molten cheese, followed by the nacho crunch, and all is forgiven.

4. Chalupa Supreme
The Chalupa is having an identity crisis, and we’re here for it. Too thick for a taco, too crunchy for a gordita—it refuses to choose. Instead, its fried, golden shell balances crispiness with chewiness while effortlessly stuffing in beef, sour cream, and cheese.

5. Cinnamon Twists
Cinnamon Twists often go unnoticed, possibly because they aren’t the main event or covered in cheese. However, their crispy texture and perfect dusting of cinnamon sugar make them an ideal sweet treat. This dessert always leaves room for just one more bite.

6. Quesarito
Taco Bell took a bold step by wrapping a burrito inside a quesadilla. The result? A layer of gooey grilled cheese surrounds seasoned beef and rice to create a perfect blend of flavors and textures. The quesadilla acts as a heat-locking shell, keeping every bite warm and satisfying.
7. Beefy 5-Layer Burrito
When hunger strikes, this burrito delivers a warm, cheesy hug. It’s packed with refried beans, seasoned beef, and nacho cheese. A scoop of sour cream and a second tortilla layer makes it even better. Reliable, filling, and everything comfort food should be—messy and indulgent.

8. Fiesta Taco Salad
You’re ordering a salad, but in reality, it’s just a taco in disguise. Crunchy shell? Check. Seasoned beef? Check. Cheese, sour cream, and all the usual toppings? Of course. The lettuce makes it technically a salad, but let’s be honest—the real reason to order it is the edible bowl.
9. Cheesy Bean And Rice Burrito
Three ingredients, one perfect bite. Soft beans, fluffy rice, and nacho cheese melt together in a way that feels way too good for its price tag. It’s a no-fuss, no-fail, eat-anytime kind of burrito. When you crave a late-night meal, and the budget is tight, this one always delivers.
10. Cinnabon Delights
What makes a perfect dessert? Is it the crunch of a golden shell or the moment warm frosting oozes onto your tongue? Cinnabon Delights checks every box. They don’t just end a meal; they demand attention, leaving you wondering why Taco Bell isn’t a bakery.
