Quesadilla + Chalupa = Taco Bell Genius - Food Feeder | Tokyo
Information | History | View | Sightseeing | Video
Someone must have told the folks at Taco bell that their Chalupa (a taco inexplicably wrapped in deep-fried bread) wasn’t high enough in fat. Good news! They’ve fixed it! they’ve added more cheese! Subscribe: http://goo.gl/Z7lbS Yup, Taco Bell has invented a new menu item called the Quesalupa, which we guess is a slightly better made-up word than Chalupadilla, but only by a little. It’s the, um, traditional (?) chalupa, with cheese baked into the flatbread wrapping, which melts during preparation, making this basically a stuffed-crust taco. If this were the second grade, Pizza Hut would be throwing a tantrum and yelling “STOP COPYING ME, TACO BELL!!!” Taco Bell is testing out the Quesalupa out in a limited market area around Toledo, OH. That technique isn’t unusual, but they’re adding a social-media peer pressure element, wherein the Taco Bell PR team is encouraging people to bully their Toledo-based friends into buying Quesalupas, so the product launch succeeds. Peer Pressure. That’s very… middle school of them!

Well, trying it through the face hole wasn't that good because I have these things called taste buds. But going through the butt hole, wasn't too bad I must say especially if hou turn the tortilla inside out and use the cheese as a lubricant. And butt chuggin it gave me less diarrhea and bloody stool so taco bell marketing, get on that. Live mas, through your ass. This stuff writes itself.

I stopped by the area and had some of these, and I'm not a huge fan of taco bell or fast food in general but those things were delicious.

This looks good
Could you be honest sometimes about the ones you like plz -
I live in Toledo.... I tried it, not that great the shell was greasy and not as much cheese in the shell as I had expected, I would rather have the cheese on the Taco. On a 5 star scale, I would give it a 3 star. Would I order it again? I would only order it again if everything else was closed and this was the only thing Taco Bell was serving. Sorry to burst your bubble, I just did not like it that much. A teenager might though!

"If they don't like it, America won't get it"
That's continent-sized peer pressure lmao -

-
it might would be good if they, you know, used actual meat and cheese and stuff...
-
He had me rolling with the "mentally unstable taco" comment. I can't stop laughing. :D And the image of people shoving tacos in their butts...LOL. This dude never disappoints.
