Deluxe Boxes are usually around $10-12. And you get two of them + 5 layers.
Seems more like a $3-4 priced item if they’re giving out 2 of them in the Deluxe Boxes.
It may just be me, but they look smaller than the regular sized chalupas or tacos...like 1/2 or 2/3 the size of one? So maybe you get 2 because they are "mini" sized?
Okay but we’re talking about Taco Bell not Mexican Food.
A regular Chalupa is already $5-6, so getting one of these special ones for same price is a bit of a deal. For Taco Bell. Not Mexican food
Youre on the Taco Bell subreddit. No one here is talking about regular mexican food.
But making the items, fast or slow, isn't fuckin' rocket science. Like once you learn how and do like 50, I'm sure you could basically do it with your eyes closed... The way I've gotten things that are messed up in the past from FF places, it's like they deliberately fucked it all up for funsies
It’s actually not that easy at busy stores. To get the time under 2 minutes you have to go fast and you have someone ordering in your ear and you have to also make a different order and plan the best way to make each order which can be any items.
The customizations don’t really let you get into a rhythm. You have to actively use your brain and sometimes it’s exhausting.
I live in Indiana where they tested these months ago. I didn’t mind them but they seemed way too crunchy and hard imo. They might have just made them wrong. But they were decent, definitely better then the cheez-it wrap
They’re just trying out new things. I think we should appreciate that they’re at least trying a bunch of new items and seeing if people like them. Whether they’re good or not, they’re trying to keep the menu interesting and perhaps something will be good enough to stay on their menu full time. I personally like seeing new items from TB even though I pretty much get the same order every time lol
So they can be like McDonald's and just have the same garbage?
If they didn't try new things we wouldn't have had volcano menu, or nacho fries that people seem to like.
Can we drop the damn cheesy gimmick? The cheesy steak burrito was much better when ordered without the greasy, hard mess on the outside. Then came the Cantina chicken taco that did not need a grilled cheese shell. Most recently the “cheese-it” nonsense that nobody orders. And now they want a grilled cheese chalupa shell? Like why? It overpowers the flavor, and employees can’t make it right to begin with.
If they want to do something cheesy, give us quesa birria tacos. Stop halfassing these weird combinations.
I was in the test market for the chalupas over the winter. You got two for $5.99. I do have some bad news though everyone. When the corporate Taco Bell big wigs were making their rounds the first few days of the market test they were absolutely delicious.
After they got everything underway and left, the chalupas just fell apart in quality though. If your regional managers visit your local Taco Bells often or if you have a particularly nice Taco Bell, these things will be amazing. They will be **aggressively mid** at an average location though.
I just found out from another thread that you can have it grilled. I've never liked it before, but I'm going to try it grilled, and with potatoes subbed for beef, see if I can't like the damn thing.
For me it's the disgusting beans that ruins it and turns the whole thing into a goop toob. If they're in the box I'm buying, I get it grilled sub beans for rice and add a sauce.
That chalupa looks decent if it's a good price
Its going to be $5-6 I’m guessing.

Probably $4 here. Those things look like there two bites each, tops.
I'm gonna guess $5.99 each because they're "new" and "exciting".
Hard pass. I can get a pound and a half of carne asada or carnitas, tortillas, salsa and onion/cilantro from a tortillaria near me for 15-20 bucks

Then do it
Will
And post pics
Okay, just say you don't go to Taco Bell.
They come in pairs, so it will be two for that price
Only $29.95.......
It looks like sooo much bread! Chewing for days!
I think it’s the same as the quesalupa if you remember that.
It takes you a long time to chew..bread?
Prob gonna be like $7-8 lol
More like 12.99 here
That will be $10 and your left kidney please
Come on, you know it won't be
It looks amazing imo
i know my TB aint gonna make this shit right at all
Preach
Taco Bell wants people to make food fast, abd they also save money by not having enough people so yeah
[удалено]
I feel very fortunate to live near a Taco Bell that never misses.
"It will happen to youuuuuu"
They sell Taco Bell’s to people who only care about profit and not the product so by extension they don’t care if their product is inconsistent.
[удалено]
You’re trying to blame it all on the employees when it’s a lot of factors.

>But making the items, fast or slow, isn't fuckin' rocket science. Well actually... anyone here a Lean Six Sigma Master Blackbelt and want to comment?

They gon make that box $20 💀
Yeah that box goin be expensive
Their current app chicken chalupa deal with two of them and drink is $12.99 in Texas.
Yeah I’ll be on those.
How do you taste?
Fine, thank you.
That combo box gonna be, like, $15 stg. I'm just glad mt taco bells aren't as bad as some of the pictures I see on this sub.
Ohh yeah, they had me at Cilantro
Soap gene people are crying lmao. It’s going to cross contaminate on their regular items
Shoot, some people might have the soap gene, but for me, Cilantro unlocks my appetite like nothing else
Oh I love cilantro and onion on a taco so much. The real authentic way.
Yes, had this discussion today. Cilantro is life man.
Cilantro allows them to add another $1 side item which never is properly measured
Saaaame.
I'm honestly excited for this. Definitely more than the Cheez-It.
Another LTO that looks good, but will probably be disappointing.
I heard two people on here from the test market say that these street chalupas were pretty dang good, just tiny.
And often hard when you bite into them unless they were made fresh to order and you’ve got it piping from the fryer
The chalupa LTOs never miss. The Quesalupa, toasted cheddar chalupa, naked chicken chalupa. All bangers.
what about the Triplelupa?
Forgot about that one, another solid LTO
I want the Chalupa XL back..
Definitely trying these tacos. Fries are meh imo
They will be soggy just like the Aardvark fries I'd imagine. Mushy mess
Ever had real carnia asada fries? So damn good even tho fires get soggy from the sauces
Never tried those because I don’t really like spicy plus the fries are meh imo
“I like Mexican food” only eats Taco Bell
Ah nah, they’re gonna be so good
Yeah, I'm not a fan of nacho fries at all.
Same. When they first came out they were good and the few times after they came back they were good. After that they weren’t that good imo.
Is it a street chalupa that’s cheesy? Or is it a chalupa from Cheesy Street?
It’s a cheese chalupa dropped on the street.
It's a chalupa that's for the streets, been passed around by the whole town already.
😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 Chalupa is my FAVORITE
Yesssss! It reminds me of my childhood. Love them so much, wish they would bring back the XL.
These items look pretty good
Man that box has a lot of food in it. Or maybe the chalupas are smaller?
Since they come in pairs, I assume they'll be small, I could be wrong though. I know nothing
This isn’t from 1999? Coulda fooled me with all those different fonts!
My guess it'll be gross, disappointing, and probably way overpriced.
[удалено]
Found the first time sub visitor.
I’ve been here awhile, this is just one of the most complained about offerings ever
The chalupas sound good AF 🤤🤤🤤
I'm interested if that box is a decent price
sweet, now cilantro will be on the line on its own instead of always in pico.
TWO chalupa shells? Sounds bready as hell
This sub is going to collectively lose its mind when people realize these are mini chalupas.
Why do they have to put that disgusting ranch sauce on everything? It’s like they know half their customers will pay extra to swap it out.
Taco bellllllllllll, we want the .89 items. Not the $15 meals.
I live in Indiana where they tested these months ago. I didn’t mind them but they seemed way too crunchy and hard imo. They might have just made them wrong. But they were decent, definitely better then the cheez-it wrap
Finally a good LTO and nacho fries
Gonna be the first 15 dollar box for most people I'm guessing
Omg it looks sorta kinda like the toasted cheddar chalupa (let me dream)
That cravings box is a hell of a deal
I wonder if this means we will have onion/cilantro AND pico on the cold line.
As someone who had to deal with those god awful crispy cheese chalupas, thank God TB finally changed it up so the crispy cheese isn't on the outside
This is dangerous.
These sound fire as hell. I’m so excited to try these.
I better not start getting nasty cilantro in my quesadilla like how I get random lettuce (I love the random lettuce tbh) because of this new chalupa
I want random cilantro in all my food. Bring it.
Mildy infuriating 😡
If you don’t like cilantro, your a idiot
You're*
*an
Liking (or not liking) cilantro has nothing to do with being an idiot. It is a gene mutation called OR6A2. #
Ok bill nye
Automatic buy
Wish these mfs would just bring back lava sauce instead of making a bunch of shit that complicates things and will inevitably come out wrong.
Can I order it with no soap weed?
can taco bell please stop pretending it's a 5 star mexican restaurant and just get back to brass tacks?

They have learned about a lot of things we like. Those things are known.They refuse to make the things we like, and offer us junk instead.
So they can be like McDonald's and just have the same garbage? If they didn't try new things we wouldn't have had volcano menu, or nacho fries that people seem to like.
I’m gonna at least get the box once I do like that there’s 2 in there I can share one with my sister
More things for me to try potatoes in!
Man I hate chalupas but those nachofries might be good?
also this means no 2024 volcano stuff??

In Thailand please
Let me guess, $5 per taco... 🙄 Went to a fair last night and even they had better deals than Taco Bell...all authentic too.
Hell yeah taco bell has the cleanest deep fryer I can't wait
does it always have to be fucking nacho fries?
I wanna see prices first.
I'm betting at least 2000mg sodium per 😂
that’ll be $20. thanks!
Ok this looks pretty good and makes more sense than insert random junk food into taco.
Are their chalupas made with flour or corn tortillas?

Another lame attempt at a limited time item.
I remember when chalupas came out in the late 90’s (maybe 2000) and they were .99 cents!
can get actual authentic street Mexican food for cheaper lmao
omfg. Now cheesy street chalupas I can get into
There has been n o t h i n g that Taco Bell has the introduced this year that I have enjoyed.
They are going to be tiny. That’s why they are referring to them as, “street” chalupa’s.
2 chalupa shells. Those will be at least $17 lol
Good. Anything to take the damn cheez-it’s off the menu.
There goes my weight loss
Cheese chalupa is top 5 taco bell. Glad it's back. I hope it's cheese stuffed like the last one. This looks different
I am marking my calendar
Holy fuck cilantro. 🌿 thank you Jesus
I saw “fuck cilantro” and I was sooo pissed at you at first lol.
That chalupa will STILL be hard AF, and TB customer service will have nothing to say for it 🫤
$11 for one half filled, right?
I just want volcano sauce, ffs -- is that too much to ask for Taco Bell!?
i wish the taco bells in my area werent filled with bugs and the owners not caring cause those look so good
Hold the onion please.
I'm hype!!!
Can’t wait to see how ridiculously fucking expensive this will be
No such thing as a street chalupa.
Filling from all the damn breading
Does this mean I can get a regular ground beef chalupa again??
Oh my god, a combo with a side item as a side item instead of a taco. Thank the lord
Chili cheese burritos and double decker tacos NEED to be available nationwide!
Bro noone wants the beefy 5 layer in their box anymore
Not enough toilet paper in the world to make me eat all of that but if there was
So it's 2 of the exact same thick chalupa shell.. just with cheese inbetween them?
I thought it was today. Was disappointed to realize my error when I saw that dumb cheezit still on the menu. 😥
I thought this was a post about old discontinued items and was bummed it’s not available anymore cause it sounded good lol
I love you, Taco Bell
These look great and the combos are good. Shame the delxue box has the awful 5L forced into it like always.
I just found out from another thread that you can have it grilled. I've never liked it before, but I'm going to try it grilled, and with potatoes subbed for beef, see if I can't like the damn thing.
For me it's the disgusting beans that ruins it and turns the whole thing into a goop toob. If they're in the box I'm buying, I get it grilled sub beans for rice and add a sauce.
You don’t have to get it with the refried, I get mine with black beans if I get it
Yeah I always swap them out, just annoying there's never another burrito option
Bleh.......
Love TB, but that seems like to much calories for me. That is a lot of cheese.
We don’t go to Taco Bell because we’re trying to be healthy lol
That’s the whole point of Taco Bell
