Thank you 🙏

I was there in the hospital room in 1935 when they delivered ReportofTheWeek. His first words were "that delivery was robust". A legend was born that day.
I could actually imagine him rating the hospital food after being born.
With his Beautiful smile 🎉
"And now we'll remove the umbilical cord so it's stops staining the suit."
I thought his first words were "everything's there"
16mm film of it or it didn't happen.
Looks like you got your meal directly out of a Taco Bell commercial. I've never seen such a neat taco or an evenly dispersed burrito from them before.
Right ? Our Taco Bell is usually broken shell, a smattering of lettuce and a mess ! Constantly.
@@ssshadowwolf6762if its from delivery its probably that, from the store thats just poor service 😂
Same! But he probably didn’t go at 1am 😂
I was literally about to just say that 💯. Also that taco wasn't sitting for more than 5 mins after it was made or the beef would be falling out of the bottom of the shell
@@jtunderwood5545lol 😂😂
Me: How much Red40 food dye?
Taco Bell: Yes
😂😂😂
Precisely! I loved those tacos as a kid. As an adult, however, it’s hard to justify all of the funky stuff that’s in the food.
Still going to get one, though! 😆
@@squeakyb.7709 same 😂
Is there a way to make it glow.... like a VOLCANO!? Or maybe the burrito could erupt like an elementary school science show experiment?
How I feel.
When I was a kid, the volcano burrito was the first thing I had that wasn't a soft taco from Taco Bell. Blew my little mind, and then they took it from me.
Your villain origin story...
@@ColderBacon As the kids say now adays, it was his cannon moment.
Same for me but with the volcano taco.
I'm in pretty much the same boat, I was a picky ass kid and this thing was one of my favorites lol. I'll be surprised if it lives up to my memory of it though
same here man i remember when it came out it was my first time trying taco bell and was the only thing i got till they got rid of it. i dont go anymore till now
I’m crying. 15 years ago I was criticality depressed. The volcano beef burrito saved me. I dropped out of high school and ate two of those every day for the next 3 years. Those where the best 3 years of my life. I finally decided to get my first job and apply at Taco Bell. I didn’t get the job, but it’s about the burrito friends you make along the way.
Truly a story of hope and triumph. Thankyou for telling your story.
Thank you for your wisdom and the solace this brings to me.
What is it with these dumb stories in the comments? You should of started with "Once upon a time" while you're at it. Burritos stop your depression!? Nonsense. If that's the case you DON'T have a damn clue what depression is about and how horrible it is for those who actually suffer. Such idiotic comments get a life, seriously
What a story lol
How can you be denied a job at taco bell lol
They must have seen you coming, that's the best looking Taco I've ever seen from Taco Bell.
exactly what I was thinking hahah
Well you get a bit more respect in a 3 piece suit with slicked back hair at TB.
KEEP IT ON THE MENU TACO BELL. PLEASE. I CANNOT WAIT ANOTHER 8 YEARS.
It's only for 2 weeks
@@SMPMS8389 I'm going to have to do a Homer Simpson Ribwich-Style tour across the country then.
@@SMPMS8389where did they say for 2 weeks?
You think they would do what people want for once

Thanks for the review Bra. Keep up the great content. ❤ You always make me smile, while giving the most informative reviews on the platform. Nobody does it better. ❤❤❤
This is the person the world needs most. A well-mannered man reviews, analyzes and evaluates junk foods.
I'd love to have him review Restaurants......
… and he does it in one take. Bravo
Well okay I tell you what, after this he definitely going to have a fiery taco poop and burn his little well-mannered hiney hole.
@@danielueblacker9118 he reviews fast food because he knows it's more commonly what people (north americans) can access and afford. kind of pure tbh he has a good heart
it's iconoclastic in the most obscurely universal way possible?!!
The volcano taco is the second best thing to ever come from Taco Bell and I’m so glad it’s back! I’m excited to put the volcano sauce on the Crunchwrap
What’s number one?
Yea what's number 1?
Maybe number 1 is either the Zesty Nachos, Nacho Fries or the Crunch Wrap supreme, or possibly the Mexican Pizza?
I was just thinking about how excited I am to put lava sauce in a black bean crunchwrap supreme
@@DewDewMegaDeeDeeI’m a Vegetarian and love the black bean replacements! Factor in that my friend is Indian and I get home cooked spicy food -once in a while we want Taco Bell and very happy to get the veggie stuff ! I hope the sauce is near the heat level of her chili paste ! ( no one can make her flavor though-she’s known for her cooking ). I do enjoy the crunch wraps though !
I can't deny it, I absolutely LOVED those volcano burritos and I was actually pretty disappointed when they took it away. Always gotta ask for light rice and extra beef, and you HAVE to eat it immediately so the fiesta strips are crunchy enough to matter.
Thanks for your Reviewbrah!
My pleasure!
Dude, you’re absolutely right. In summer of 2012, I had just finished 9th grade and was so freakin sad whenever they discontinued it. But I was ridiculously excited whenever I heard they were gonna bring it back. I immediately bought a burrito and 2 tacos yesterday. You absolutely have to ask for light rice on the burrito, because they put wayyyy too much on the volcano burrito for some reason.
Only Reviewbrah can make a 16 minute video about a single sauce worth watching
At 2x speed and skipping 10 seconds several times
Times sure have changed. Use to get two regular tacos and two bean burritos for under $2. Now 1 spicy taco for $2.49 🤯
I asked for a quesadilla with onions , cheese , jalapeños, chopped onion and it was 6.00!
I remember the I think it was the 59 79 and 99 cent menu
@@ssshadowwolf6762oh the cheese one add jalapeños is delicious
Times have changed in just the last 3 years. Only gonna get worse. 😡
@@gena682779,89,99. I worked at Taco Bell during that time
As a taco bell employee i can confidently say this sauce is the best one we have. It’s literally great. Would totally recommend on a beef chalupa :)
Oh also a chicken taco is coming soon, we watched our training videos for it today
Oh oh a new chicken taco. Ty Ty Ty
Pls tell me it's the chicken flatbread those were the 🐐🐐🐐
Leak some more stuff ab the volcano promo pls lol
Because only a Taco Bell employee has access to all the sauces?
When are the rolled tacos coming back
Hello TheReportOfTheWeek, I was wondering, what is your all time favourite 10/10 item?
Man went on to have the classiest case of the volcano runs, ever.
This review is one for the history books. The Volcano menu is one of the most mythical fast food icons
I loved the volcano sauce when it came out. I'm actually kind of excited to see it return. used to get sauce on the side and just soak a beefy 5 layer burrito in it. cheapest filling lunch around back in the day
Reviewbrah is a ray of light in humanity's darkest days. God bless this young man.
I'm new to this God's channel. The channel name is "The Review of the Week", and he refers to himself as "Running on Empty". Where is "ReviewBrah" from?? 😅
@@iChiiefreviewbrah was created by people on the internet making memes-he didn’t come up with it lol
@@iChiief I think he's even embraced his meme name because if you search for Reviewbrah volcano, this is the top of the list. He knows about the meme and adheres to it. It's in his own tags now.
He is really amazing.
YES!!! It's back and delicious!!! Ask them for a side of lava sauce and dip the chicken quesadilla in it!
Next to the Mexican Pizza, the Volcano items are the best thing Taco Bell has ever had and I’m glad it’s back. They’ve been running this limited time for a really long time and it’s always successful and appreciated.
Get Mexican pizza with lava sauce
@@keonhobgood1551 im trying this next time I get tb
The last one I had didn't have chopped green onion on it. I was bummed out.
I have actually never seen a more aesthetically pleasing, presentable taco. I'm serious, it looks like the advertisements. Normally the hard twcos look like a child slapped them together and the beef is practically invisible. They must have made that especially for you!
Was thinking the same thing
A funny fact about Pepper products especially when used as a condiment like in a hot sauce, is that when there is a good amount of dairy products such as sour cream and cheese, they will absorb quite a bit of the capsaicin in that pepper product, so that you will end up experiencing less of a spicy sensation, then with a product that does not have such dairy products.
That's also why they tell you to drink some milk if you eat something too spicy
@@Kintsugi23xactly which Is why this has always been known but the op just wanted to use "Fun Fact" or in this case, Funny, known fact.. we all had mothers as children.. 😅
Capsaicin is an oil and when it binds to fat it can continue down your throat instead of clinging to the inside of your mouth
@@NonProphetz truth!
Another fun fact - the same pain receptors in your mouth responsible for the heat are also found at the *other* end of the digestive system, hence the day after reward of Dave’s Insanity.
The Volcano taco is the best menu item they ever had. I still don’t understand why they don’t package the volcano sauce!
Half to make you go into the restaurant, half because corporate executives don't know their аss from a hole in the ground.
They'd make money off of it fs
@@williamthetermiteit being limited drives more people to want it so they’ll get their money anyways
Could be limited as they probably cant get a year round supply of whats needed to make the stuff 🙄 . Cant have pumpkin spice all year kind of thing
@@Ayoitsdavid813 but you can have "pumpkin spice" all year,it was just a regular everyday spice mix for centuries.
When I was in high school I would grab volcano tacos and hangout with friends so it coming back is a huge hit of nostalgia, so damn excited. Been waiting on this for years.
I gotta say, that is the best looking taco I've ever seen come out of a Taco Bell. It's like what they show in ads. Everything I get is sloppy or broken, but that's immaculate.
Or soggy as hell
They must have known it was ordered by the king
They had a taco with 2 shells and cheese in between them a while ago, they were impossible to eat the shell was broke in half.
Used to work at Taco Bell back in the day. You're entirely correct about the Volcano Burrito being a bit less spicy. The reason for that is that the sour cream brings the spice level down a little bit. Tbell does this pretty often for menu items that include a spicy ingredient(examples: the 5 Layer Burrito has their nacho cheese on it(which is Jalapeno Style Nacho Cheese, according to the box that it is delivered in), so they balance that with the sour cream. Another one that comes to mind was the Cool Habanero Double Stack Taco, Habanero sauce with sour cream). If you want to subtly change the spiciness level of the item, ask for extra sour cream for less spice, remove sour cream for full spice.
Great tip
I think the sour cream was taming the heat on the burrito even though you couldn’t really taste it. I go my early access Volcano items yesterday and everything you said matched my experience 100%. The only thing I’d say is the burrito is more flavorful and the strips add a good crunch as well.
Taco Bell in my area still has their lobby closed and the entire restaurant closes at 10 PM. If you place an order through the app, you still have to wait in drive thru because, as stated, the doors are locked and the lobby is closed. With all that inconvenience, I'm still gonna deal with it because I love the Volcano Taco.
Wow, that location must not be able to staff anyone, or have a difficult manager/owner to work under (or cheap)
7:00 I remember the Volcano sauce was quite close to the Diablo sauce packet condiment as far as heat goes. I remember buying Volcano burritos and crunch wraps frequently during the previous run.
i love the no time wasting fashion and the cuts where needed. Shows the dedication to experience over a cash grab via viewtime which isnt needed. keep up the good work and i will continue to watch you ❤
Reviewbrah seems like a person I would like to sit down with and analyze the meal we order for lunch together haha.
Love his review format and his gimmick with the suits, looking forward to your next review!
Everyone buy these items so they keep the volcano menu around. Best thing they've ever had(in my opinion)
OMG I am so happy that you did this review I had recommended it and I have no idea if you read any of my comments but it totally made my day so much better yes I am happy to say that you make my days brighter when I see your videos a thousand thanks and many blessings to you!! Huge fan !
After a rubbish two days I thought to myself: "Wouldn't it be brilliant if Report of the Week posted?" I didn't think it would happen - but here you are, on excellent form! I never considered making burritos before but I think I might try after seeing the cross section 🔥
I’m so excited to try these items! I’m thankful to have insightful reviews like this as the spice speed is truly something at the top of my concern list. A slow heat is good to be aware of! Appreciate your detailed and entertaining food reviews! It’s hard for me to try new foods without knowing what I’m getting myself into, so these videos help me make informed food choices 😊
I’ve been anticipating his review far more than the actual Volcano Menu items 😂
Two things, the sour cream probably mitigates some of the spiciness in the burrito plus the red taco shell might add to the spiciness of the taco.
That intro instantly brightens my day. Wish I had his mental focus and ability to enjoy the smallest of joys like he does.
I like all your reviews. They are very informative and professional.
You look great man! Thank you for your food reviews!
Homie needs to trim those coke nails though 😂
Glad to see this from the review, loved the volcano taco back in high school and read that it wasn't very popular. Can't wait to try it again tomorrow!
Dude they havent had their volcano menu for over a decade!!! Im so psyched
Taco bell menu is like ok we have exactly 9 ingredients. which of these 38 ways do you want them presented for you? 🌮👀
Oh man so excited this is back. I was a much younger guy the last time the volcano taco was out and now it’ll be a volcano going in and coming out haha
Volcano burrito is my favorite Taco Bell item EVER. Volcano Taco is my second favorite. Been waiting a looooong time for these to come back. Cannot wait to try these tomorrow. I would have tried them first day but it was a $5.95 delivery fee in the Taco Bell app so I’ll just wait the 2 days to DoorDash it lol But seriously Taco Bell: MAKE THESE PERMANENT!!!
I had the Volcano combo yesterday. It was amazing. Just how I remembered it. I can't wait to go back and get more.
I appreciate your choice of B&W monotone setting with matching suit and tie that really sets off the red orange taco shell. You are as always beautifully put together.
I'm so excited that Taco Bell brought back these delicious menu items. I ate so many volcano tacos when I was pregnant in 2008. Lol.
The last time i laid my hands on the legendary volcano taco.. i was 9 years old the Nostalgia for this being my taco tuesday lunch every Tuesday for as long as i can remember is flooding back in.. The day i got call of duty works at war.. with all my old buddies. It was the best time of my life.. i can only hope that the volcano taco remains for all of those nostalgic memories to flood back in the same way they were born. Thank you @ReportOfTheWeek for bringing this back to my feed so i may relive this experience.
Another food review from our friend Report of the Week. What a treat!
Honestly, I feel like getting the item in person rather than delivery is part of why you got much better looking examples.
I don't eat out often (very infrequent in fast foods), but takeout/delivery meals are ALWAYS prepared with less care and attention to detail than others.
As much as I enjoy your reviews, could you please state each time whether it is a pickup (in-person) or delivery?
Hope you are well reviewbrah!
I had the taco and burrito yesterday. I loved this menu back in the day and I was happy to see that it was back and that it tastes as good as I remember. That lava sauce is so good - it has a little burn to it, but such a great flavor. Even now I'm trying to figure out how to procure a lot of it and preserve it for the future. I will also say that the taco was far superior to the burrito to me. My thoughts on the burrito were similar to his, except that I tasted far more sour cream than lava sauce, but it was mostly rice.
The volcano taco and the double-down returned in the same year. It’s like all my food dreams come true!
Must have some below low standards for food.
@@raw_si_sihtsometimes there is nothing better than greasy shit food… especially when inebriated 😂
@@raw_si_siht 🤣 For junk food, definitely. 😁
The way he described the lava sauce reminded me of their Chipotle sauce (except maybe stronger in terms of spicy). It takes about 15-20 seconds to kick in, it works from the back of the tongue up to the front and of course it lingers. Interesting.
Tremendous video, as always. Few maintain the standards so expertly.
Also, extra sauce on the side. I always go for that when getting a gimmick item like this. Thank me later. :)
Great tip!
Thanks for the clear and concise info. I suspect that the amount of rice in the burrito thats used as filler is soaking up too much volcano sauce. Taco bell should try using something else to cut the amount of rice in half, like pico de gallo.
The lava sauce is the best thing ever made. Ive been waiting for years and the nostalgia hit hard.
The Volcano Taco reminds me of summer in Virginia Beach back in the 1980s (even though that was before the first Volcano menu came out)
The TV commercials for TB in the 80s and 90s were the best. 😁
They finally brought some of the best items back!
Well I know what I'm doing tomorrow 🌯... I just add like 12 packs of fire sauce to the burrito like I do everything from TB and it will be 🔥
Getting the volcano combo yesterday was as excited as I've been to put fast food in my body as I've been in a while. Reviewbrah has it right, these are very good items, maybe the best Taco Bell has. They definitely put more volcano sauce on my burrito because it was actually hotter than my taco, and the woman working the window gave me a large drink for free instead of the medium. So maybe that's influencing my decision a bit more positive here, but this really was great if you like spice. When the beefy crunch burrito comes back though I may actually pop a bottle of champagne...
I've been waiting for the Volcano menu to come back for literally years at this point. I hate that it's for a limited time.
I wonder if the "taco shell" being the deep red had some spice as well that added to the sauce, where the burrito was just a normal tortilla, I'm super excited to try this! Thank you so much for the review!
The taco shell is just food dye. Regardless the lava sauce is amazing.
Dude the Volcano Burrito back in 2013 was absolutely incredible. Had white rice with cilantro in it and was one of the best parts about it. Takes me back to the start of senior year of HS🤣🤣🤣
Dude same !
Had this today as the meal with both, Taco is definitely a good step up on the classic Taco Bell taco, burrito is just fine, totally with you. I think the heat level on the burrito is held back primarily by the big portion of rice
*Salutations* Sir John. Pleased as always to see a review and hear your educated opinions. Take care and be well.
I went to Taco Bell yesterday for lunch. Tempting though the volcano shell was, I still ordered my usual Mexican pizza combo. However, I was able to purchase a small cup of the Volcano sauce for $1. I put the sauce on my two hard tacos and two slices of my pizza and it was pretty darn good. It made everything have a nice kick of heat without being overbearing. It was also nice because the staff neglected to give me my requested hot sauce packets. Since the pandemic, my closest store has stopped putting the sauce packets out where everyone can put their hands on them.
I am honored to be one of the first few people to watch this video. Thank you Reviewbrah, for everything you do
The volcano menu will always hold a very special place in my heart. I personally believe T Bell’s downfall began once these were taken off the menu, so I couldn’t be happier that they brought them back. Appreciate you giving these the respect they deserve, Reviewbrah!
I wish you would have mentioned how the taco shell tasted. Did it have any of that lime flavor to it? Was it spicy or just colored red? 🤔🌮🌋🌮🌋🌮🌋
I did in my review
@Scoe910 Thanks I'll check it out! Appreciate it 😊
@amandathomas7952 no problem thanks for the follow i appreciate you
I had the Volcano combo yesterday and my goodness, that volcano sauce is so GODDAMN GOOD.
I was so excited when I saw they brought this back. Then I saw it was only the taco and burrito and not the nachos and my disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined. The Volcano Nachos are my favorite thing they’ve ever had.
Once it's officially "Out" you can probably recreate the nachos by mods at the ordering kiosk.
I'd Imagine that the sour cream in the burrito, ( Although you don't really taste it), lends some cooling qualities to the Lava sauce, which then quells the violence of the of said sauce, along with the rice,... but that's just my 2 cents. :D
I love you
Can you tell them to bring back the XXL Grilled Stuft Burrito? I feel like they'll listen to you
The hotness must really got to him. He pauses video and turned it back on.
The Report of the Week! Good to see you bud! 👍 hopefully everything is going well.
You are a national treasure, I could listen to all day, you make great points and optimism is top notch. Your commentary with review is appreciated as well.
I would do unspeakable things to hear him narrate an audiobook.
I just finished the last season of Peaky Blinders, and i was honestly hoping for a ReviewBrah cameo, pulling up in a 1933 Mercedes Benz, swagged out with finest suit of the period holding a tommy gun with a drum mag. I guess theres always room for improvement, even for peaky blinders.
I love your old radio voice , I could listen to you talk about anything. Many blessings.
Many moons ago when I was a lad I used to take the bus home after work every day, and the transfer stop was right outside Taco Bell. So I used to nip in and grab 2 tacos to eat on the bus on the rest of the way home. Along with the seasoned beef I always had diced tomatos, diced onions, sour cream and shredded cheddar. In those days you could choose your fillers. Not sure if you can any more. Sadly, I never ate at Taco Bell again after this. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada. And HAPPY CANADA DAY :-)
"And even those sips of Baha Blast that I took, did not quell the spice. So, it's definitely a spicy item. Even though it's not really materializing, it's like, I could feel my nose is starting to get a little bit runny, so it is manifesting a sort of physical reaction." prompted me to drive immediately to the nearest TB. Thank you, brah. I've missed it much. If you can do ANYTHING to get back Salsa Doritos, I will be forever in your debt.
The volcano burrito is an easy 10/10 for me. The sour cream and the lava sauce just totally compliment each other. I wish they'd make it permanent. I've gotten them like 4 times since this video, and I'm sure I'll be back for more before the run is up. I could practically live off of those things. XD
That “hello everyone” was friggin perfect.
i wish i could speak with such articulation like RB. He is really special!
The excitement from Reviewbrah is palpable on this one, goin in
The "hel - lo - every onnnne" intro is so bloody consistent that it's become my comfort blanket when i go online
Whoa, weird without the quiet eating portion of the video! Great review brah, I love you so much!
Mr. Brah, have you ever considered reviewing dishes too? I think it would be kinda funny to see you review weird Midwest potluck dishes or something like that
High quality reviews of low quality food, you gotta love it!
That painting behind you is very cool.
The volcano burrito used to be MASSIVE. Like at least the size of the current grilled cheese burrito. I'm gonna stick with the taco so I don't disappoint myself trying the burrito
Must be your location. I grabbed one today. It had some girth
I am thoroughly on team "don't cut the chewing"
I had the volcano burrito last night! wasnt a disappointment! im glad you're trying it!
I’ve waited YEARS for this to come back!!!!
