The Dollar Menu, a nostalgic fast food value menu, and huge draw for fast food chains…has been a thing of the past for some time. Now Taco Bell is revamping it’s $3 or Less Cravings Value Menu.
While it’s not a dollar menu, the $3 or Less Cravings Value Menu will feature 10 items with some at $1, and it will launch on January 11th.
The new menu was tested in the Louisville, KY area and Phoenix, AZ area a few months ago to gauge customers reaction to the prices.
$3 or Less Cravings Value Menu
- Cheesy Double Beef Burrito – $2.49
- Double Stacked Taco -$1.79
- Spicy Potato Soft Taco – $1
- Cheesy Roll Up – $1
- Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrito – $1
- 3-Cheese Chicken Flatbread Melt – $1.99
- Chicken Enchilada Burrito – $2.29
- Loaded Beef Nachos – $2.79
- Stacker – $1
- Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes – $2.29
It’s not all good…the Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes, however, seems to have gone up in price to be included on the $3 Value Menu. The side dish has been $1 (or not much more) at many locations, for years, and now it’s at $2.29 on the new Cravings Value Menu.
One commenter on Reddit reacted to the news that the menu was testing, saying:
“It’s only another excuse to raise prices. They aren’t reducing the price of anything to put on that menu they are just increasing the price on some of the smaller value menu items in most markets. The prices it list in that article are not accurate. I’ve seen menu boards for it. Maybe those are the base prices but every franchise will Jack them up.”
It looks the a few items have been removed from the previous Cravings Menu, notably the Cinnamon Twists, and the Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito.
Taco Bell just announced a partnership with Walmart to offer the Cravings Kit at the retail giant nationwide. The kit gives customers the chance to make two Taco Bell classics at home. The CrunchWrap Supreme, and the Cheesy Chipotle Chicken Quesadilla.
