Retired Taco Bell favorites will return to menus soon. Here’s when and what to know
Taco Bell is bringing back a few favorites from decades past.
Retired items will appear on the new Decades Menu, launching Oct. 31 at Taco Bell restaurants nationwide, according to the California-based fast food chain.
The nostalgic menu featuring offerings from the ‘60s to the 2000s was previously tested at select locations in Southern California. Now fans across the U.S. will be able to enjoy what Taco Bell calls “flavor flashbacks.”
The beloved caramel apple empanada is among the returning items, arriving a little later on Nov. 21, for a limited time, Taco Bell said.
The dessert was discontinued in 2019 but will re-appear alongside a host of other retired Taco Bell dishes:
- ‘60s - Tostada
- ‘70s - Green sauce burrito
- ‘80s - Meximelt
- ‘90s - Gordita supreme
- ‘00s - Caramel apple empanada
“The Decades Menu and the merch we’re creating are an ode to our rich history and a love letter to our fans, whether they’ve been rolling through our drive-thru for decades or are just about to discover their first Caramel Apple Empanada,” Taylor Montgomery, chief marketing officer for Taco Bell, said in the release.
Each throwback menu item will cost $3 or less.
