According to USA Today, the Double Decker Taco Supreme is currently available for $2.69, which is also a dollar less than its last price. With 310 calories for the regular taco and 330 calories for the Supreme version, customers can enjoy a satisfying meal without breaking the bank.
Taco Bell Unveils New Menu Items
In addition to the Double Decker Taco, Taco Bell has introduced the Disha Hot Discovery Box, created in collaboration with Mexican-American musician Omar Apollo.
This meal option is priced at $8.99 and includes a Cheesy Gordita Crunch, a Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco, a Crunchy Taco, chips with Nacho Cheese sauce, a medium drink, and three packets of Disha Hot Hot Sauce. This special sauce contains a blend of toasted tomatillos, white vinegar, tomatoes, onions, peppers, lime juice, and a secret spice mix.
Customers can also add individual packets of the Disha Hot Sauce to their orders for just 20 cents each. Taco Bell continues to innovate with new items like the Big Cheez-It Crunchwrap Supreme, priced at $5.49, and the Big Cheez-It Tostado for $2.99.
For those looking for a giant snack, the a la carte Big Cheez-It is available for just $1 and is 16 times larger than the regular Cheez-It cracker.
The Double Decker Taco has garnered a dedicated following over the years. After being removed from the menu in 2019, loyal customers expressed their disappointment and called for its return on social media, according to AS.com.
Taco Bell listened to this outcry and brought the item back for a limited time last year, which was met with excitement.
