I haven’t had Taco Bell in a long time. I always thought the best thing there was the 7-Layer Burrito, especially when you bite into a pocket of sour cream and guac. Well I ended up at Taco Bell one night and ordered both the 7-Layer Burrito and the new Sriracha Quesarito. The Quesarito was so much better. Just had good flavor. I didn’t need to add the usual necessary hot sauce packets. But I think the Quesarito probably could be even better with some sour cream.
Sam brought these Doritos Locos Tacos Doritos, the chip based on the Taco Bell Doritos Locos tacos based on the Doritos chip. There were Nacho Cheese and Cool Ranch versions. Each bag had a mix of two chips –Nacho Cheese and the Locos Tacos chip or Cool Ranch and the Locos Tacos chip.
I don’t think we understood when we first ate it. Some of us were like it taste like regular Doritos. Some of us thought it tasted like taco meat. You can tell which one’s which by seeing how much seasoning is on it. But honestly, I couldn’t tell the different that much anyway. Maybe the seasoning got mixed around in the bag onto other chips.
I thought it tasted almost like a plain taco shell with a little bit of Doritos seasoning. So kind of like a less flavorful Doritos. Weird. But I bet it’ll taste great with some taco meat on it.
You’ve guys seen the ads for Taco Bell’s new XXL Chalupa? It looks insane. No way they were going to stack that much beef on top of that deep fried flat bread. I got one today. It’s a decent size at $3.69 plus tax. I wasn’t expecting it to, but I would have been much more thrilled if it did looked just like the ads …and would’ve been willing to be pay twice for it …in more ways than one.
It tastes like their regular chalupa with a lot of nacho cheese. It got sloppy when it fell apart. It was also the first time I tried their Salsa Verde green sauce packets. It looked like green gel.
Here’s this video from Youtube. This one looks more stacked than mine. I didn’t realize they really deep-fried it to order. I thought the shell was delivered to the store that way. I guess I didn’t expect them to have a deep fryer at all. What else is it used for? By the way, that deep fried shell is surely the best part of the chalupa.
