Through our extensive history, we’ve amassed a treasure trove of delicious products that our loyal customers have grown emotionally attached to. We’re always seeking innovative ways to re-introduce those items that provide the comfort and worth they desire. Taylor Montgomery, Taco Bell’s Chief Marketing Officer, shared this excitement. Now, we’re excited to bring together two groups of fans: those who fondly recall these menu items and those who are yet to taste the joy of a Caramel Apple Empanada or their first bite of a Meximelt. This menu is designed for both!

Currently, Taco Bell representatives refer to the reappearance of these five items as a trial, even as they hint at a nationwide launch coming up in the remainder of this year. For more details about each item, check out the information provided below.

  • ’60s – Tostada: The Tostada was one of Taco bell’s original menu items when it opened its first location in 1962. 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.
