Taco Bell worker reveals menu changes: “They’ve basically scrapped the dollar menu”

A Taco Bell worker took to TikTok to reveal some big menu changes, some of which might have a negative impact for customers.

In a TikTok video that’s since gone viral, gaining over 485,100 views, Taco Bell employee Caleb Lennon discussed some changes that the chain was implementing. He said that several new items would be returning to menus, but that many things were also being removed. 

“Did anyone notice how much Taco Bell’s menu has changed already this year?” Caleb says. “This year, we have already brought back five new items. Some are new and some returned, but we have a lot of new items already this year.”

He told fans that both the Loaded Nachos would soon be gracing menus, as well as the Beefy Melt Burrito.

“One of the bad changes we’ve had this year is we basically got rid of our dollar menu. There’s barely anything at Taco Bell that only costs a dollar now,” he reveals.

TikTok weighs in on Taco Bell menu changes

After the video was posted on the platform, it showered TikTok in a wave of nostalgia. Many people were eager to share some of their favorite items, that the chain had since pulled from menus. 

“Can anyone tell me if there’s another way to order the Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito? My husband is mad it’s gone,” one user pleaded, followed by a crying emoji. 

“I need the Meximelt brought back,” another exclaimed. 

“Cheesy potato griller and chicken chipotle griller need to come back,” one proclaimed. 

Many couldn’t get over the chain getting rid of cheaper items, stating: “Barely anything is $2 anymore, let alone $1. Chips and cheese costing 2.50 is crazy.”

“Cheese roll up being $1.19 is unhinged,” another concurred.
