I havent eaten taco bell since they got rid of the mexican pizza. If they bring it back i will come back. It was the only thing i wanted to go there for.
Mexican pizza was the main thing I always got every time I went to Taco Bell, I would always get 2 or 3 of them, they were great!! When I pulled into the drive thru and learned they discontinued it, I was pissed!! Since then, I really dont eat at Taco Bell anymore! BRING BACK THE MEXICAN PIZZA!! PLEASE!!!!
Have you asked if they still carry them? All my local TB's don't have them on the menu board anymore, but they all still have them available if you ask. Strange but true.
I get the feeling that we are being played and left wanting so that they can get a massive resurgence of the Mexican pizza to help their bottom line. I admit, If they do bring it back, I will get one immediately. It and a regular crispy taco are my favorites. I was heart broken when they took the Mexican Pizza off the menu, then I was angry.
It has been gone for a good while, so, I do wonder IF they would REALLY bring it back. That whole packaging BS surely had been a lie. Just change the packaging to cardboard, duh....
@@juliegogola4647 yum brands still has to think about Pizza Hut cardboard use. Ha. It’s good for optics to try to be on the side of “recycling”. But no, to the used sauce packets. Gross. I want the Mexican pizza back and the volcano menu!
Two taco Supreme and a Mexican pizza. I make em better and cheaper at home Now anyway wth unadultered real foods. Not preservative soaked veggies and horse meat lmao.
I LOVED the Taco Salad, where you get to eat the salad and then get to eat the bowl. After it was dropped, i managed to fill the space with Mexican Pizza. After it was dropped, i would get the Nachos Party Box, which was like 3 orders of Nachos Supreme, enough to last thru a whole ball game on TV. The last time i looked online, it was also discontinued. I have no reason to go there anymore. Whoever's brilliant marketing strategy it was to get rid of all the Fan Favorites ought to be hung from the Taco Bell sign, bell ringing and all. Needles to say, Taco Bell is deleted from my computer's Fast Food List. 👎
The original Pizzazz was great, and so was the Mexican Pizza. Haven't eaten there since they pulled it or the Burrito Supreme. The menu is garbage now, (and it wasn't great before). Mt Dew and garbage ain't great.
it was a dumb idea to get rid of the best sellers so we'd have to buy the left over junk that no one wanted. Lousy way to clear out slow moving products.
I worked at the first Taco Bell that had the Mexican Pizza on their menu. Fall of 84, I transferred to a Taco Bell R&D restaurant in Santa Ana, CA that test-marketed new items. The Mexican Pizza was already on the menu. In the Spring of 85, it went on a national rollout. It was a HUGE success!
I really think they are stupid to get rid of their best Seller! Did you guys ever have Bell Beefers? In the 70s they had them and they were like a Sloppy Joe. I liked them!
For over twenty years I would order the Mexican Pizza every time with no matter what else I ordered. I barely go now because I can’t get one. Good way to lose a regular customer and I’m Italian so I love pizza.
yeah. good item. but then they dropped the onion, then they refused to cut it ?? I mean it's a pizza, personal, yes, but kind of big & unwieldly. I miss it. : (
I haven't eaten Taco Bell a single time since they got rid of it. I've eaten mexican pizza since I was a young child. It was and still is BY FAR my favorite fast food item of any franchise. It was the only reason I went there (cheesy fiesta potatos were also a plus). I signed the petition the week it was posted and I have not given them any business whatsoever since then. I've also asked my family not to eat there as well. I used to get them at least once a week, at MOST every 2 weeks. I'll be happy to be a TB customer again.
Taco Bell has been a favorite of mine since i was a kid but i haven't ordered a nacho supreme in years ..i can't believe they got rid of it and Mexican Pizza and also Double Decker and the other flavors of Doritos tacos..are they trying to lose customers?
Let's all admit the pizza had gone downhill for years. They ended black olives and green onions, and then quit even cutting the damn thing. It was a complete mess with all the toppings in the corner of the box. It was only a matter of time before they added rice to it, to cut costs.
If you can wrap a Taco in paper, you can also wrap a Mexican pizza in paper as well. Think about it everything is recyclable. Simple solution, use a different recyclable container. Dropping customers favorite items will also drop customers. If every restaurant did this there would be no more restaurants.
There's a problem... (had been a Taco Bell customer for many years, including the time the Pizzazz* Pizza started in '85) The sauce and fat in the bottom ground beef layer makes paper wrapping nearly impossible as it will fall off the sides. The only exception is the CRUNCHWRAP and that is because it is wrapped in an extra burrito-sized flour tortilla. If Taco Bell made a CRUNCHWRAP PIZZA then it could be wrapped on paper... * I've noticed back then it is the same name as one of the characters in the Jem and The Holograms cartoon, but only now I've figured the food item came nationally OVER 6 MONTHS EARLIER.
The packaging excuse was lame, all they had to do was put it in a paper sleeve or wrapper just like a crunch wrap. Oh, it'll get stuck to the top you say.....it did in the paperboard packaging too! It's not rocket science, who cares if some cheese and sauces gets stuck on the paper, it never looks like the pictures anyway😒
After they discontinued it, I was motivated to create them myself. I use the beef with my own blend of taco seasoning and also created a recipe for enchilada sauce. It's great people posted their own recipe versions online, too! 🎉
Our visits to Taco Bell have unfortunately SIGNIFICANTLY DIMINISHED since their pulling of the Mexican Pizza and Meximelt. The crunchtada is not even close. 🙄
They got rid of so many of my favorite items all while increasing the prices of the few that I still liked. I've stopped going to Taco Bell for a while now. Shame because it was quick, easy, and for the most part, cheap.
@@NewFastFood If I want fast food "Mexican" I just go to Del Taco. But where I moved to, I literally live a block away from a taco truck that makes amazing authentic food.
The Mexican pizza was soooooo good and I didn't understand why they took it off the menu..I'm just glad that they brought it back.. And please bring back the enchirto and the chili cheese burrito and the wild sauce..
$0.99 Cheesy bean burrito. Off the menu delight. Original grilled stuffed burrito before it was XXL. Extra grilled with double baja sauce. Staple for late night drive thru. $0.79 hard shell tacos. Get a bunch for cheap. These are the things I skipped philosophy class for in college. Still a great decision to this day. And always with fire sauce.
My favorite was the double decker taco supreme, that was also gotten rid of. I do not think I have been back to Taco Bell more than once since then. Thanks for the video.
I don't think Yum Brands really cares anything about its customers or its franchisees. They are bound to have lost business by cutting so many items. I know I only visit once a month now when I used to go 2 or 3 times a week.
The fact it takes almost 12 minutes to say, ”it took too long to assemble and the box was too expensive in the wake of the COVID pandemic.” is why I stopped watching halfway through.
No Enchirito, No Mexican Pizza, No Cinnamon Crispers. Taco Salad. Taco Bell sucks. It even TASTE different now. I used to work for them and NOTHING is the same as it used to be. I've stopped going there.
Taco Bell admitted they got rid of the Mexican Pizza because they wanted to save money on the packaging. They said they saved 7 million dollars the year they got rid of it. It was not about safety. It was about money.
Taco bell saying they got rid of the mexican pizza because of environmental impact of the paper box, while simultaneously adding the power bowls that come in giant plastic containers 🙄
Am I showing my age cause I remember when Taco Bell sold the Pizza Hut Personal Pan Pizza? I suppose they were both owned by the same corporation.....and it was identical to the pizza you got at the Hut. Every two or three years, I forget just how BAD Taco Bell food is, and I check one out. Two days ago, I decided to try them again. I went to the drive-thru, and ordered two combination burritos and a small Pepsi. I guess "combination burritos" aren't a thing anymore, cause she had to enter "Bean Burrito" and then "Add Beef".......It took a long time, but they got it, I believe I was charged correctly, and I received my food. When I got home, I discovered the "Drive Thru" lottery had cheated me......I had FOUR bean burritos only, no beef in sight. I would have gone back, but I don't intend to go back again. (well, maybe in two years when I've forgotten this experience)
Some franchises are co-branded Taco Bell/Pizza Hut and will sell some Pizza Hut pizzas. But plain Taco Bell franchises don’t have the Pizza Hut products.
I go to my local Taco Bell and order several items and then order a Mexican Pizza. When they tell me they no longer have that then I cancel my entire order and tell them I will go somewhere else.
I ate at taco bell every day prior to them dropping ALL my favorite items. I have not been to Taco Bell for the past 6 months at least. They dont care about their customers, I dont care if they stay in business, I no longer eat there.
This and hard tacos were the only thing I used to get from Taco Bell and unfortunately for some reason, they also closed all the Dell Taco's in St. Louis which was always my favorite.
I have been greatly disappointed in the deletion of the Mexican Pizza. I have since tried eating some of their available foods on the menu only to discover they have hard surface foods and I could not break the surface with my teeth. I had to throw the items away. Now, I rely on the crunchy and soft tacos for a quick bite. If Taco Bell continues on this course, they will lose customer loyalty all together.
I literally stopped going to Taco Bell when they took away the Mexican pizza. All the new items Taco Bell comes out with are all junk trash nasty . Best thing on the menu they take it off I don’t understand it . I can’t wait for May 19
The Del Taco Crunchtada could also be called a Chalupa. I used to know them as a Tostada. Its a crispy tortilla topped with beans, meat, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes (or pico de gallo) and sometimes sour cream. The Mexican Pizza is just a Tostada with an extra tortilla on top.... My wife really misses the Mexican Pizzas and I really miss the Enchirito. Way back in the 1980's, Taco Bell served an Enchirito with black olives on it. I would always get extra olives and cheese on mine. Later they stopped putting the olives on them. And then quite a few years after that they dropped the Enchirito altogether. Although many stores would still make them anyways, even though it wasn't on the menu. This happened way before the big COVID menu purge.....
If anyone knows Dolly Parton, let her know about the mexican pizza. I read something lately that her favorite fast food place is Taco Bell, but was disappointed when they dropped the pizza.
They need to bring back the Encharito, mex pizza, bellburger, tostada and pintos n cheese. Their current menu is total trash. Taco bell has been replaced by Taco Casa for me because they have 4 of those 5 items on their menu here in Texas.
The last 15-20 times I had the Mexican Pizza, the crispy shells had a slight bitterness which was different than the 10+ years it was my favorite. Remember the Chilie Cheese Burrito? Remember the Meximelt? It seems to be a common theme with these current giant conglomerates.... They seem to cut the exact items on their menu's that happen to be my favorite items on their menu. Also, the Mini-Corndogs at JCI, The Roast Beef at Cheddars Scratch Cooking, these are other casualties I loved. I know you can think of some of your favorites that have been discontinued. These things bring me sadness. lol
I miss the Mexican pizza. Now I make it at home. Using the Mexican 4 cheese. Refried beans. Hamburger meat mixed with taco bell sauce. Olive. Tomatoes. I drizzle a little A1 sauce on top.
I go to Taco Sombrero now to get the Mexican Pizza in my hometown, Gulfport, MS. I do not miss Taco Bell anymore since they got rid of my favorite menu item. Mexican Pizza, come back!!!!
Their claim of the paperboard box being bad for da earf is so fucking stupid. They still had other items that used the exact same type of packaging and, in some cases, significantly more packaging like that huge ass nacho party pack thing. The taco salad came in a big box, too, and they still had that. Then, they bring the Mexican Pizza back...in the exact same kind of box. Yeah, sure, Taco Bell... And, that's not even mentioning all the PLASTIC they use in containers, utensils, straws, etc.
They just don't want to have to fry the pizza shells for just one item. Originally the Taco Lite and the Mexican pizza used the same tortillas to fry up. Its about saving money, not pleasing customers.
Okay, what’s the deal with this so called shortage of Mexican pizzas? The ingredients are basic components to make other menu items. Cheese, bland beans, meat of choice, the same flour tortillas used for soft tacos just deep fried and tomatoes. Is it the chunky red sauce?, is that the product that ran out to put the recently reintroduced Mexican pizzas “sold out” everywhere? Or is it all just a publicity stunt?
They keep getting rid of the things I like(Mexican pizza, nacho cheese chalupa, volcano burrito.), so I have no reason to go back to Taco Bell unless the bring something back for a promotion.
I stopped going to Taco Bell when the Mexican Pizza was taken off the menu. I just drove by to see if the rumors were true about it being put back on the menu, only to see a sign that said they were sold out. I bought the stupid tacos, because I was already in line, but it was gross.
Frankly Del Taco actually puts filling in their food, and the prices are the same, or even cheaper. Every Taco I get from Taco Bell folds flat,,,, and they got the nerve to charge as much as a Del Taco which is actually filled.
I've been on a "Taco Bell boycott" since 2017 and I'll continue to boycott until they bring back the Meximelt and Double Decker Taco. Del Taco is getting my business and will get my business until the Meximelt and Double Decker Taco, my favorite Taco Bell items, return
@@gwenhenson5005 Because I despise tomatoes, I would cancel the pico de gao and go with just the beef and cheese with some sour cream on the side to dip it in. It was smashing!!!
I don't go to Taco Bell anymore since they got rid of my two favorite items which were the 7 Layer Burrito and the Mexican Pizza. Actually, the offerings from the Fastfood industry lately are so pathetic and overpriced. I just don't order any Fastfood now. I just make my own food at home avoiding having to "park it", getting the order wrong, and the general overall disappointment in the products. Also, my wallet is a lot happier now as well as my taste buds.
I liked the beef and bean double taco. Could eat it on the go and because the soft shell around the hard shell you got the crunch without losing it in nerds. I now make them at home and rarely go to the 🔔.
I miss that and now they don't even do the spicy Chipotle tostadas anymore :*( taco bell can bring those back to they always bring back somthing I DONT BUY!
I just tried the bowl and was able to change items like black beans for refried beans. Its my new go to just let me choose an extra tortilla as chipotle does. ❤
