Every time Taco Bell creates a new item is a reason for excitement,
and the Crunchwrap Supreme is no exception. The engineers at Taco
Bell Corp., a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, Inc., (NYSE: YUM) really
must be encouraged to smoke a bowl or drop acid before coming
to work because aside from being a total taste treat, they are
really burnt ideas on display here. The Crunchwrap consists of
a huge grilled tortilla with ground beef in the middle. Atop that
they place drippy nacho cheese, a hard tostada shell, sour cream,
tomato chunx and lettuce. Then, don't ask me how, but they fold
the grilled tortilla up and around the whole thing and lock up
the top! I detected a hint of special sauce thought hey do not
advertise that in the ingredients. If you are a fan of Taco Bells
past triumphs you will no doubt like this one, as I did. Though
this will most likely not become a standard addition to the menu
like the Zesty Chicken Bowl, Soft Taco Supreme, Grilled Stuft
Burrito or the outrageous Chicken Enchirito, it is likely to gain
some fans for the short time it is around. That is of course,
if you can stand seasoned ground rats and cow hoofs and eyeballs.
I can, but only on rare occasions
