I was thinking of the beef at first and was going to call you out on the 'protein' that 90% styrofoam filler had. But yes...the beans! Taco Bell in Korea got rid of the bean burrito and made a kimchi burrito...so I haven't had that delight in a long time.
Also no mention of the ICONIC Beefy Crunch Burrito - the best thing taco bell has ever created. For being only $0.99 they were *huge*, and the flamin' hot Fritos were just icing on the cake. That's what kept me fed in college. A real tragedy that they've never brought it back - though I'm sure the thing would cost like $6 today
I've never forgiven Taco Bell for discontinuing the original Grilled Stuffed Burrito. It had an incredible sauce that the XXL versions lacked which made them significantly less good.
That's the Baja Sauce, a type of pepperjack ranch. No, the stuff they sell in stores under the same name is not the same stuff. It also came on the Baja Chalupa/Gordita and the Cheesy Gordita Crunch. They replaced it with some sort of spicy ranch stuff that just doesn't taste the same.
I worked in the marketing department at Taco Bell Corp in the mid 90’s. You missed Border Lights, Taco Bell’s attempt at healthy menu items with half the fat. Ironically enough, these were offered just prior to the bacon menu items that came next. They were all on the menu at the same time for a few short weeks.
Hi do you by chance remember some kind of chicken Monterey soft taco or something like that? I was a young kid but I still remember how much I loved it but don’t remember the full name or what exactly was in it
@@BenPTV-lc5lr "Border Lights"?! haha that name would never happen today. at that point they may as well have made some kind of tortilla shell called the Border Wall
You missed the brief appearances of Chocotaco a couple decades or so ago, and the Carmel Apple Empanadas (and other Empanadas) as well. Actually you missed a lot, but those stood out to me.
My mom could get me to install a wing to our house if she said I would get one of those. That was my favorite item. I would get two and an order of beans and put the beans on top of it. When they brought it back in the 2000's, it didnt taste the same. I still ate it though.
yo forgot all about my favorite tacobell iteam though i ordered it with out the pico so it was just a tube of meat and cheese......ahhhhhh good times, also this video feels like a fever dream
Meximelt was my fave. For a long time you could still get stores to make them by ordering a soft taco with no lettuce, add pico and put it in the steamer. Alas, my local Taco Bell’s say they don’t have the steamer anymore 😢
The rolled chicken tacos they were pushing during the last winter before covid spring to mind. Getting some of those w/ the ranch dip on a day out Christmas shopping is one of those memories that just randomly stuck with me for no reason.
I'm going to look for the their video in the right hand side of my browser and when I find one of them I'm going to right click and hit the DO NOT recommend channel again. Last time it happens
Taco Tuesday was Taco John.. who also started the 6 pack and a Pound for Around $5... No Idea what it costs now. No Taco Johns anywhere near where I live.. hell, they never heard of them wear I live in Florida.
@@PolPotsPieHole Had one back in Minn when I lived there. Tasted Better but also Cost a bit more.. Now in the town I Live in here in Florida, we have a TB and like 10 Mexican Places, Not including all the ones using Trailers.. and a Actual Restaurant. The Resta costs me Almost $40 and TB Would also cost Between $30 and $40... When TB Use to cost me $10 to Fill me.. and TJ $12..
@@ravenlorans I am old enough to remember 29 cent tacos at TB. My mom would give 2 dollars a day for lunch. I could by a couple tacos and a small joint for lunch break, lol.
Man you forgot a ton of things from the late 80's and early 90's. Mexi-Melts, Nacho Supreme, Taco Bellgrande (long taco supreme), Pocket Tacos ( I loved those) chicken and steak fajitas, then the chicken and steak soft tacos. Double Beef Burrito supreme, Burrito Supreme. Then they did a bunch of chicken variations. And there was the burrito with tater tots in them and I am sure I am forgetting something and that was just for the 3 1/2 years I worked there.
There are a ton of items missing from this list. There were even shots of menu boards thar listed them. Hard and Soft Taco supremes, Taco Bell Grande, Taco Lite, Fiesta Taco, fiesta Soft Taco, chicken and steak soft tacos, mexi-melt, country bfast burrito (the best), sasauge bfast burrito, bacon bfast burrito , fiesta burritos, combo platters 1,2, and 3. I know there are more.
FUN FACT about Demolition Man! Taco Bell is practically non-existent in Europe so for the European release of the movie they switched it to Pizza Hut and had the actors record extra voice lines.
Yeah I noticed that. I did not see a Taco Bell in London, Paris, or in Germany, or Austria. The only chains I seen in continental Europe was McDonald's, Burgerking, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, and KFC well and Starbucks. There was probably more but I did not notice them. In France O'Tacos is good for French tacos, lol.
You forgot the Taco Light, introduced in the mid-80's. Basically, it was a taco supreme in a fried flour tortilla shell, instead of a corn shell. It. Was. Amazing. As I recall, it got cancelled due to public confusion about thinking that the term, 'light', meant it was somehow a diet taco... which it most definitely was not, nor ever advertised as such. Taco Bell NEEDS to bring it back - even if only for an occasional limited time thing.
Im 52 now and pretty much avoid all fast food except Taco Bell. Its my guilty pleasure. During my days as a bodybuilder i hated I couldnt eat it but in the off season. i was there almost every day.
It's insane that they took it away, they have every single ingredient necessary back there lol - you can still order one if you just customize another burrito.
My favourite was the 7-layer Burrito. I haven't been to a Taco Bell in years since I moved to a small town where the nearest TB is 10 miles away, so I was devastated to hear it was discontinued!
I agree, that was my favorite burrito as well. I still remember it and wish for it's return. Even if it returned at double it's original price, I would grab that in a heartbeat as it was a simple but very filling and delicious burrito. For around $2 back then you got a big grilled burrito (weighed around a pound, much like the XXL Grilled Stuft Burritos) with Pinto Beans, Spanish Rice, Creamy Jalapeno Sauce, Nacho Cheese, Cheddar Cheese, and Pepper Jack cheese.
You forgot one of my favorites, the Beef Meximelt, a soft taco with beef, pico de gallo, sour cream and cheese all melter in the flour tortilla, it was available maybe from 1990 until 2013
You forgot to mention one of my favourites, the "Texas Taco". You included the footage of Jack Palance eating it however. There was also the Taco Lite. The shell was light and flaky, like the bowl for the Taco Salad. Not to be confused with the Light Taco, which had a shell that was white in colour and had lass carbs to it. It also had less fat in the beef and the sour cream was fat free. Those didn't last very long. There was also a release of some specialty tacos, I wanna say, in the mid 90's that there were three varieties of. They each had a different sauce, one had corn in it, one had black beans, can't remember the third unique item. The sauces were awesome though. They were cream based. One was green in colour, one was pink, kinda like thousand island dressing, the other was light brown and had a smoky element to it. That was my favourite one. Wish I could remember what they were called. And finally, my absolute favourite item, the Cheesy Beefy Melt. Which was a Meximelt on steroids, without the nasty fiesta salsa.
This has a glaring error. What you call the gordita is actually a cheesy gordita crunch. The original gordita was just the flatbread. A cheesy gordita crunch started out as a secret menu item that was passed around by the workers at TB. it became so famous that they made it a menu item. Weird food history, you guys should shave a fan scout the script for errors.
Yep, and they said also versions of Gordita is on the menu today, ummmm no… just one, cheesy Gordita crunch only. This video had massive issues all over it.
I remember back in the mid 2000's there was a combo platter that came with a grilled stuffed burrito, rice, beans, chips, and salsa. Easily my favorite at the time and I wish they'd bring it back.
My family had a fast food Friday or Saturday once or twice a month in the 70s and when I wasn't in the mood for tacos or burritos I ordered the Bellburger! I LOVED it but never had it again before it was changed on the menu!
@@therealwilfreddierkes9980 prep a pound of taco meat, add a 10oz can of red Enchilada sauce and a can of refried beans. Stir and add water to break up the beans and make the mixture smooth. It is a good all purpose chili sauce.
I liked the naked chicken chips and the fully loaded nachos. Two menu items you actually forgot to mention in the video. There are so many items released over the decades you would have to make a 2 hour video talking about them all.
what got me hooked on the bell in the mid 2010s were the loaded grillers and quesoritos. i remember when the loaded grillers were $1 from 2-5pm during happy hour. those were the days
Think i read somewhere they were only in the pacific northwest so most people don't even know. they were better than tater tots, they were shredded thinner and just different than tots. similar though. Really wish they would bring them back more than anything but i dont think it will happen. I used to get a pinto and cheese and mexi nuggets and put the nugs in the pinto..... so fire.
Having worked at Taco Bell as my first HS job somewhere around 2015-2016, I'll say that you missed one promotion item that I was absolutely in love with when they did it. It was their "$1 Crunchwrap sliders" that came in different ways. You also forgot the absolutely goated Taco Bell Grillers they had. The Chipotle Chicken Griller Beefy Nacho Griller and Loaded Potato Griller. Never forget what they took from us.
"Every item"? You are missing a ton. Also important to note, in early 90s (1991-1992), Taco Bell had a "Lite" menu, which was aimed at making slightly lower calorie items and had a "lite sour cream". You missed all of the nacho items, such as Nacho Bell Grande, and when TB changed it from normal tortilla chips to the air fried chips they serve now. You missed the 8 layer burrito, which was a 7 layer with beef and was introduced at 99 cents. For movie promotions, 1995 saw the Congo promotion, which is were the "Fire" sauce originated from.
I didn’t see the loaded grillers. The loaded potato griller with bacon was by far my favorite thing they ever had! I wish everyday they would bring it back!
Woah how are you going to make a video of "every" Taco Bell item over the years and fail to mention the much beloved and very much missed molten concoction that was the caramel apple empanada?
I would love if they actually brought back the chili burger. Sounds super delicious! Also, the more recent Crispy melt taco! The combination of the white corn shell, and the nacho cheese and cheddar cheese was absolutely delicious! They say all good things come to an end, but why? 🤷🏻♂️💯😒😂
Yes! This! I thought it was funny that when they started again with the breakfast that so many people acted like they had never done it before. My husband worked there in the 90's and vivdly remembers how annoying it was to close at 2 am and then re open at 6 for breakfast.
7:47 As an obsessed Gordita lover, I have to point out that the original Gordita did NOT have a crunchy tortilla in it. The original Gordita was just a flour flatbread wrapped around the fillings. The Chalupa saw that flour flatbread get fried. Now, Taco Bell has the "Gordita Crunch" which brings a corn tortilla into the mix. Sacrilege! 😉
Unabashed Taco Bell lover here. The best item on the menu today, and it's not even close, is the breakfast crunch wrap with steak and Diablo sauce (something not mentioned). But back in the 1990s I virtually lived doff of Beef Meximelts.
As somebody on the East Coast also born in the 90's . Every Tacp Bell up here has always sold the Chili Cheese burrito. I get it almost every time I got to Taco Bell. I've been eating them since I was a kid back when they were only like 79 cents.
What about the Five Alarm Tacos? And the Cheesy Gordita Crunch? And the Texas Taco Sandwich-you used a clip from the ad with Jack Palance. And my favorite item from back in the day: the Three Cheese Melt?
My usual Taco Bell order is a beefy 5 layer burrito with a cheesy bean and rice burrito. I was disappointed when they dropped the double decker taco, however. But if they get it then you can bet i'll be sure to snag one.
How could you not at least mention some of the other well beloved Taco Bell items, like the Loaded Grillers they use to have? I'll never forget those smaller but still awesome burritos, especially the spicier Daredevil Grillers they had.
My favorite (discontinued) taco bell items were the XXL burritos and the fritos burrito, usually when I go these days I get the cheesy double beef burrito or chicken enchilada burrito.
I worked Taco Bell early 90s we had a Monterey jack chicken soft taco and a Ranchero steak burrito. I remember having to pump 2 different cheeses nacho and Monterey jack .
You forgot the nacho menu items, like the Nachos Bell Grande, and briefly there was a larger version of that in the early 00s, the Much Bell Grande Nachos, which I sorely miss. There have also been smaller nacho offerings on their various value menus.
when i was in school they had taco bell buritos with a cat on the package it was beans and cheese with a red suase it was the best taco bell burito i ever had but trying to find it now seams inpossible anyway to find it and its ingridents so i can enjoy that child hood memory again please help us all thease buritos were exlusive to the school ied love to have it mde again this age and avilabe for all of us who remember them
I haven’t seen it but for a while they have an enchilada bowl. Soooo good. Now they have a chicken enchilada burrito and it was a buck something. Now it’s like 2 something. And I missed the XXL steak burrito too. Now days I make a bean cheese and rice with steak or whatever. And I totally remember olives and miss those too. Oh and I also was mad when they got rid of the steak soft and I think hard tacos. They had a sauce that some lime sauce. The avocado isn’t the same.
You missed one. I loved their Frito Burrito. It was a chili burrito with Frito chips. It was super crunchy and delicious. But it may have been a Texas only thing.

No mention of the quesorito 😔. One of the best burritos they ever had.
I still miss quesoritos they were my favorite
It really was a simple yet amazing take on the formula.
A steak Quesorito loaded up with Diablo sauce is the best item to date.
I do miss the Volcano nachos as well…
I remember how to make them. So if you ever came to my store I'd make one for you 😉
I really like the Quesorito, but I LOVE and miss the Quesalupa. That one wasn't out for nearly long enough.

I worked at Taco Bell in the 80's, when we made everything from scratch. Hated the taco salad shells, they were always breaking .
Yes everything’s better when it’s made from scratch tacos taste better when there made fresh
hope your better and your ass stopped breaking

My family had a fast food Friday or Saturday once or twice a month in the 70s and when I wasn't in the mood for tacos or burritos I ordered the Bellburger! I LOVED it but never had it again before it was changed on the menu!
HOW COILD YOU FORGET ABOUT THE QUASORITO!!!!!!
Quesadillas burritos combination
I love their chili cheese burritos. A few years ago I figured out how to make the chili from them at home. Surprised how easy it is.
Ever try the Frito Burrito? It's the same but you add Frito chips to it. Awesome.
Hook us up. I’ve been missing those so much. ❤
@@therealwilfreddierkes9980 prep a pound of taco meat, add a 10oz can of red Enchilada sauce and a can of refried beans. Stir and add water to break up the beans and make the mixture smooth. It is a good all purpose chili sauce.
You can literally make a 7 Layer Burrito by customizing ingredients from the base burrito at $1.39.
They forgot to list The Meximelt which was my favorite. I'd order two and have one with chicken. It was cheap and satisfying back then.
You forgot Extreme Nachos from 93.
Those were so good! I can't quite describe the flavor, but it was my all time favorite
I liked the naked chicken chips and the fully loaded nachos. Two menu items you actually forgot to mention in the video. There are so many items released over the decades you would have to make a 2 hour video talking about them all.
One of a very few great narrators online.
what got me hooked on the bell in the mid 2010s were the loaded grillers and quesoritos. i remember when the loaded grillers were $1 from 2-5pm during happy hour. those were the days
How in the world did you miss Mexi Nuggets? There were on the menu for a long time. Seasoned little tater tots. They were amazing.
Think i read somewhere they were only in the pacific northwest so most people don't even know. they were better than tater tots, they were shredded thinner and just different than tots. similar though. Really wish they would bring them back more than anything but i dont think it will happen. I used to get a pinto and cheese and mexi nuggets and put the nugs in the pinto..... so fire.
Having worked at Taco Bell as my first HS job somewhere around 2015-2016, I'll say that you missed one promotion item that I was absolutely in love with when they did it. It was their "$1 Crunchwrap sliders" that came in different ways.
You also forgot the absolutely goated Taco Bell Grillers they had. The Chipotle Chicken Griller Beefy Nacho Griller and Loaded Potato Griller.
Never forget what they took from us.
Chili cheese burrito and the big beef burrito supreme were my all time favorites 😍
If you want Taco Bell fries just come to Canada, we've had several varieties for at least 30 years. Fries Supreme are the best!
All of Canada would like to know why Fries Supreme wasn't on the list?
"Every item"? You are missing a ton. Also important to note, in early 90s (1991-1992), Taco Bell had a "Lite" menu, which was aimed at making slightly lower calorie items and had a "lite sour cream". You missed all of the nacho items, such as Nacho Bell Grande, and when TB changed it from normal tortilla chips to the air fried chips they serve now. You missed the 8 layer burrito, which was a 7 layer with beef and was introduced at 99 cents. For movie promotions, 1995 saw the Congo promotion, which is were the "Fire" sauce originated from.
I didn’t see the loaded grillers. The loaded potato griller with bacon was by far my favorite thing they ever had! I wish everyday they would bring it back!
Woah how are you going to make a video of "every" Taco Bell item over the years and fail to mention the much beloved and very much missed molten concoction that was the caramel apple empanada?
I would love if they actually brought back the chili burger. Sounds super delicious! Also, the more recent Crispy melt taco! The combination of the white corn shell, and the nacho cheese and cheddar cheese was absolutely delicious! They say all good things come to an end, but why? 🤷🏻♂️💯😒😂
I really miss the XXL Grilled Stuffed Burrito with steak, that was my jam
I was always kind of wary of Taco Bell when I was a kid, not sure why in hindsight. I love them now, they're one of my go-to weekend choices.
The 2014 breakfast is the second attempt at breakfast by Taco Bell. They had it for a short time in the early 90s.
Yes! This! I thought it was funny that when they started again with the breakfast that so many people acted like they had never done it before. My husband worked there in the 90's and vivdly remembers how annoying it was to close at 2 am and then re open at 6 for breakfast.
7:47 As an obsessed Gordita lover, I have to point out that the original Gordita did NOT have a crunchy tortilla in it.
The original Gordita was just a flour flatbread wrapped around the fillings.
The Chalupa saw that flour flatbread get fried.
Now, Taco Bell has the "Gordita Crunch" which brings a corn tortilla into the mix.
Sacrilege! 😉
This one was fun!
The Pocket Taco was wonderful .... $5.00 in 1992 could get you 3 tacos, a drink and cinnamon crisp. I miss those days.
Missed soft taco, and many more great items. The giant $5 nacho was my favorite
The 7 layer burrito was just the best, and I still can't believe they got rid of them.
Unabashed Taco Bell lover here. The best item on the menu today, and it's not even close, is the breakfast crunch wrap with steak and Diablo sauce (something not mentioned). But back in the 1990s I virtually lived doff of Beef Meximelts.
As somebody on the East Coast also born in the 90's . Every Tacp Bell up here has always sold the Chili Cheese burrito. I get it almost every time I got to Taco Bell. I've been eating them since I was a kid back when they were only like 79 cents.
What about the Five Alarm Tacos? And the Cheesy Gordita Crunch? And the Texas Taco Sandwich-you used a clip from the ad with Jack Palance. And my favorite item from back in the day: the Three Cheese Melt?
The Doritos Los tacos test market was in Toledo OH. And man those things were(and still are) good.
My usual Taco Bell order is a beefy 5 layer burrito with a cheesy bean and rice burrito. I was disappointed when they dropped the double decker taco, however. But if they get it then you can bet i'll be sure to snag one.
How could you not at least mention some of the other well beloved Taco Bell items, like the Loaded Grillers they use to have?
I'll never forget those smaller but still awesome burritos, especially the spicier Daredevil Grillers they had.
My favorite (discontinued) taco bell items were the XXL burritos and the fritos burrito, usually when I go these days I get the cheesy double beef burrito or chicken enchilada burrito.
I worked Taco Bell early 90s we had a Monterey jack chicken soft taco and a Ranchero steak burrito. I remember having to pump 2 different cheeses nacho and Monterey jack .
Grilled Stuffed chicken burrito and the XXL Steak Nachos were the best since the Original Taco!!! 😮😂
You forgot the nacho menu items, like the Nachos Bell Grande, and briefly there was a larger version of that in the early 00s, the Much Bell Grande Nachos, which I sorely miss. There have also been smaller nacho offerings on their various value menus.
Nachos Bell Grande are my favorite but the crunch wrap is really good too
Gotta love those 80- mid-90's commercials
when i was in school they had taco bell buritos with a cat on the package it was beans and cheese with a red suase it was the best taco bell burito i ever had but trying to find it now seams inpossible anyway to find it and its ingridents so i can enjoy that child hood memory again please help us all thease buritos were exlusive to the school ied love to have it mde again this age and avilabe for all of us who remember them
The BLT soft taco was my favorite, hands down! Man were those good and they were out just as I started college so, perfect timing! 07:03
Caseoh is upset that you forgot the Steakhouse Burrito.
I haven’t seen it but for a while they have an enchilada bowl. Soooo good. Now they have a chicken enchilada burrito and it was a buck something. Now it’s like 2 something. And I missed the XXL steak burrito too. Now days I make a bean cheese and rice with steak or whatever. And I totally remember olives and miss those too. Oh and I also was mad when they got rid of the steak soft and I think hard tacos. They had a sauce that some lime sauce. The avocado isn’t the same.
You missed one. I loved their Frito Burrito. It was a chili burrito with Frito chips. It was super crunchy and delicious. But it may have been a Texas only thing.
Every Wendy’s menu item says the beginning
Left out so, so much. When did the quesadilla appear? Also, the Cheesy Gordita Crunch was introduced in 2001 and it changed my life. RIP Baja sauce.
