Talk about a (Baja) blast from the past! Taco Bell will soon serve up nostalgic fan-favorite menu items for a limited time with its new "Decades Menu."
In celebration of its 50th anniversary, you can enjoy the greatest hits across generations, including the '60s Tostada, '70s Green Sauce Burrito, '80s Meximelt, and '90s Gordita—all available starting October 31—and the '00s Caramel Apple Empanada, which will be available beginning November 21. Each item will cost under $3!
"Since its founding in 1962, Taco Bell has introduced craveable, Mexican-inspired products, delivering new flavors to fans through its menu innovation and creating a deep vault of favorites that fans are consistently pleading be added back on menus," Taco Bell said in a press release. "The Decades Menu helps unite generations of fans who fondly remember these menu items, with a new era of fans who have yet to experience the delight of a savory Tostada, taste the legendary Green Sauce Burrito, or take their first bite of a Meximelt."
Below is a little breakdown of each Decades Menu item:
- '60s Tostada:
- "An O.G. menu item, which was one of six menu items released in 1962 at Taco Bell’s first walkup location in Southern California. It is comprised of a crispy corn tostada shell, layered with savory refried beans, tangy red sauce, crispy lettuce and shredded cheese, for $2.19*."
- '70s Green Sauce Burrito:
- "One of our 'most-hacked' burritos and an item as edgy as the 1970s, this luscious burrito is filled with savory refried beans, crunchy onions, shredded cheddar cheese and green sauce made with green chili, tomatillos, jalapeño peppers and spices, available for $2.49*."
- '80s Meximelt:
- "One of our most requested comeback items and a member of every '80s clique, the Meximelt is made with freshly prepared pico de gallo, a blend of three cheeses: mozzarella, cheddar and monterey jack melted with craveable seasoned beef in a tortilla, available for $2.99*."
- '90s Gordita Supreme:
- "The ultimate ‘90s kid, the Beef Gordita Supreme returns for $2.99*, featuring a pillowy warm flatbread filled with savory seasoned beef, cool reduced-fat sour cream, crisp lettuce, blend of three cheeses: mozzarella, cheddar & monterey jack and topped with diced tomatoes."
- '00s Caramel Apple Empanada:
- "A star was born in Y2K as the Caramel Apple Empanada came on the scene with its golden-brown, crispy exterior filled with apple pieces and a flavorful creamy caramel filling, available for $2.99*. The Caramel Apple Empanada is continuously demanded by fans and will be available starting November 21 for a limited time."
In addition, Taco Bell will introduce a $7 Luxe Cravings Box, which will feature the '90s Gordita Supreme, a Beefy 5-Layer Burrito, a Double-Stacked Taco, chips and nacho cheese sauce, and a medium fountain drink.
But wait—there's more!
