Are Cheetos The New Doritos At Taco Bell?
After the rather underwhelming and unsurprising launch of the Quesalupa last month, it appears that Taco Bell is attempting to replicate the popularity of its Doritos Locos Tacos, by once again raiding the pantry at Frito-Lay and stuffing Cheetos inside its Crunchwrap sliders — at least in Canada.
Taco Bell announced that the limited-time cheesy, chip-y creation, only available in Canada, comes in three options: spicy chicken, beefy cheese, or supreme.
The $3 mini meals are just a smaller version of the classic crunchwrap, but come with the addition of jalapeno-flavored Cheetos stuffed between pieces of meat and cheese.
“Bringing unique and innovative products to its customers has always been a top priority for Taco Bell and the Cheetos Crunchwrap Slider is no exception,” Taco Bell Canada said in a statement.
It “took months of tasting and trying different ingredient combinations” to come up the “epic collaboration between two fan faves,” the company says.
It’s unclear if Taco Bell will expand the limited-time offering south of the Canadian border.
