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?

    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.

    nacho fries. I don’t do fast food much now but man the crunchwrap with nacho fries or a breakfast crunchwrap. Oh always get the tacos and breakfast stuff fresca style. Basically on anything that does not rely on the cheese or sauce for flavor which is not a whole lot.

    Cantina chicken burrito with the green sauce in the packet. It’s better than you’d get at most of the fake Mexican chain restaurants in my city. Not as good as the authentic places but the price can’t be beat.

    Some of my favorites:

    • Chicken flatbread melt (like a taco but with a fluffy flatbread instead of a tortilla)
    • Beefy 5 layer burrito
    • Cantina Chicken Quesadilla
    • Breakfast Crunchwrap (preferably steak)

      Exactly. Read the OP’s question in the title and immediately thought the answer is “Literally any other restaurant.”

    Try everything. Why the hell not? Cheesy Gordita Crunch, Crunchwrap, and Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrrito are the best. Baja Blast is the real deal.

    Also, here comes the baby boomer diarrhea jokes. Every time Taco Bell is mentioned, it’s the same joke. I don’t even think it’s NOT that funny, but it’s just the same joke over and over.

    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!

    I’d argue you already tried the best two things, but maybe give the Chalupa a try as those are pretty good from what i remember.

    Double Beefy Crunch Burrito. If it’s made right, goddamn those hit the spot every time.

    Other than that, try a Baja Blast freeze if they have them.
