Taco Bell is removing the 7-layer Burrito from its menu [Updated]

Update, July 20, 2020: After sending a frantic email to Taco Bell on Friday about the fate of beloved 7-Lyesterday Burrito us I finally received an email confirming our worst suspicions:

“Taco Bell is simplifying its menu to simplify operations,” wrote the unfortunate public relations representative who probably woke up this Monday morning in an inbox with tens of thousands of angry emails to reply. While some of the fan favorites, such as the 7-layer burrito, potato bites, and loaded grillers, may be removed from the menus, we are excited to permanently introduce the $ 1 meat burrito to the value menu of Cravings and the $ 5 Nachos Grande Box Return for a Limited Time. “

But here is the problem, Taco Bell: the 7-Lyesterday BUrrito has been a staple food for vegetarians for decades: For meatless masses, it’s as iconic as the Big Mac, or a certain very special chicken sandwich. And why, in the name of God, would you ever choose one of your most beloved menu items when it requires no special ingredients and takes you 20 seconds? to assemble? Certainly, all your locations will still have rice, beans, guacamole, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and cheese in their kitchens. And considering that for the past year you’ve been bragging that your menu has been vegetarian friendly long before the rest of the industry fell in love with fake meat and cow farts… I mean, none of this makes sense. Then again, nothing in 2020 makes sense.

A7-L sideyesterday Burrito a many other things are going crazy. If you have a special place in your heart for any of these items, You better get them quickly before they are cruelly stolen from you in August:

• Grilled Steak Taco Suave
• Nachos Supreme
• Fried Beefy Burrito®
• Spicy toast
• Triple-layer nachos
• Spicy Soft Potato Taco
• Potatoes with cheese and party
• Loaded grillers (potato with cheese, beef nacho)
• Chips
• Mini Skillet breakfast bowl

Our Taco Bell Contact, who remains firmly in my prayers, made share a happy news: Although Quesaritos will be removed from restaurant menus, they will still be available online and in-app, so they won’t actually go anywhere. They are just being shy for some reason.

Original post, July 17, 2020: The rumors began to spread this week through r / LiveMas, the self-described “subreddit for everything related to Taco Bell”, that the beloved fake Mexican chain planned to update its menu starting on August 13.

A Taco Bell employee reported that the Caja Grande Nacho was returning, but the great news was that a lot of items were about to be discontinued: Quesaritos, Loaded Grillers, Triple Layer Nacho, Beefy Frito Burrito, Spicy Tostada, Nacho Supreme, all with potatoes and, The most Tragic is the 7-layer burrito (although that last item remains unconfirmed).

We have already lost a lot this year, starting with the Cool Ranch Doritos Loco Taco. Do we also have to lose the 7 layer burrito?

The Redditors have already planned campaigns to save the potatoes, which, as we all should know by now, are essential to the best version of a mexican pizza. Some have suggested using reverse psychology since, as argued, “if you ask Taco Bell to keep an item on the menu, they will remove it, but they will constantly bring back things that people don’t care about as much as LTOs” .

People of America, it is time to act. Raise your voices. Smooth Taco Bell’s hard heart into a merciful omelette, expansive enough to hold all seven layers. Now is the time!
