I say, Crunchwrap???
Oh wow, they took the crunchy out of a cruchwrap, added some bacon, and gave it a Taco-Belled-Out name for “Torta.” I’m talking about the new Tortada at Taco Bell.
The other night, I surprised Baja with a Bacon Ranch Tortada for dinner, via his request. You know, the whole, “I don’t know what I should get - surprise me!” dialogue. Here are some of the comments I witnessed:
"A quesadilla! No, wait, it's just in a quesadilla wrapper."
"Bacon? Hmm. There may have been some on there..."
"Oh yeah, I think I tasted some ranch."
To me, the thing that most stood out was how crunchwraplike it is. I get what they’re doing; emulating a torta in their own way, but part of me thinks it is just time for the Bell to bring some real bread into the picture (a la the Bell Beefer days).
