those pics with the marketing images & the real image...I'm not sure I've ever had a taco from taco bell look at shitty & lacking stuffing ever. The Arby's - I mean if you smash the damn thing in a wrapper & leave it sitting there for 5 minutes, it's going to look like crap

The $1 AM Breakfast Taco with Sausage was delicious and put's DD's wakeup wrap to shame.

Breakfast burrito was pedestrian, IMO.

While there's a Taco Bell located just 1/3 of a mile from my house (and a Bojangles & Dunkin Donuts just across the street from TB) I'm not often in the position to grab a fast food breakfast. Though when that occasion does occur I've got no problem giving this stuff a shot.

The next time I'm looking for a 1,500 calorie breakfast I'll make a run for the border.

One of their breakfast items is 1500 calories? Pretty doubtful. That's a shitload of calories.

Hell I doubt any of Taco Bell's items are over 1000 calories. Now Hardees...they probably have something over that. I bet Wendys does too.

The linked article above states the caloric intake. You could eat once of each new item and it would still be less than 1500 cal.

It appears that Bacon Breakfast Burrito is the worst, at 490 calories and 28 grams of fat.

Actually, it looks like the A.M. Crunchwrap is the worst with 660 calories.

Sausage AM Crunchwrap combo
Crunchwrap - 710 calories
Cinnabon Delights 2 pack - 160 calories
Tropicana orange juice - 140 calories

Total: 1,010 calories

I could have a large Mountain Dew Baja Blast instead of OJ (410 calories) for a total of 1,280 calories.

^holy cow i bought the exact same combo. Here's my review




I'm Driving to work, i'm almost there and pass Taco Bell and see the breakfast sign gently waving in the wind like a greek siren, who you know is a hideously ugly woman, but her singing voice calls you into her rocky dangerous cliffs to be what is surely a most agonizing death, and I just impulse swerve into the next road, and circle back through the drive thru. Yes, conscious decision making, i debated like 8 times w/myself before I justified it by the following concessions

1.) Split them wiht my coworkers so i don't actually eat an entire one.
2.) Trip Report it so I can share this meal with others who may benefit from the knowledge I bestow upon them.


Item #1

This was the tastiest item, the Breakfast Bacon Crunchwrap. It's pretty much some standard garbage found in the trash, wrapped up in a delicious soft tortilla and then pressed on the grill they make other tacos with. The 'crunch' part is from the hash brown that is flattened and stuff into this terrible concoction.

Reason #1 why I didn't vomit instantly: It's hard to fuck up bacon, and the hash browns weren't terrible either. The flavor was good enough I could choke it down and feel pleased with myself. That being said, and same goes for the rest of these, for lack of a better word, shit-sandwiches, this shall be hte last fucking time I ever order breakfast from this restaurant. There was not one thing that was worth trying once, let alone twice. I did this as a favor to you. You're fucking welcome.

Breakfast Bacon Crunchwap



Item #2: This one was just laughable. A waffle taco? The gimmick alone led to the words 'sausage waffle taco' escaping my breath into the drive-thru microphone. I even asked the high-school kid at the drive thru how long is this breakfast shit is supposed to last. He smiled and said "I think it's permanent, sir". I thought to myself "just like your job, kid".

I gave this item the second place trophy in my tour-de-diarrhea of what mexicans like to eat in the mornings. I originally thought the waffle portion was going to be just a gimmick copy of the same crap they make mcdonald mcgriddles out of, you know the ones with the fake-y syrup flavor? Ya, no. This was pretty much a soggy version of an unsweetened fried dough cake you buy at state fairs. It came with syrup on the side, although I declined to use it. I really wanted my tastebuds to experience the full flavor of the meal in it's true, raw (literally) form. Regrettably, I wish I had eaten the syrup, not only to mask the flavor of this frankenstein of breakfast foods, but to coat my inner rectal lining so it doesn't tear my anal cavity upon exiting my bowels. The sausage flavor allowed me to stomach 3 bites, each subsequent bit smaller than the previous one, before I unceremoniously tossed it into the trash

Item #3: Steak and Egg Burrito. Insta-garbage. I took one fucking bite of this, what i thought to prob be my safest bet, and which had come upon the recommendation of the drive thru attendant when I asked him what he liked the most, and threw it away in the most slam-dunkest of fashions into the garbage. I now understand that this young fellow must have been instructed to always recommend the steak and egg burrito, because surely the meat that was inside it was from a raccoon found on the highway, and the store manager was trying to push it before the carrion turned completely to maggot pie.

There you have it. I'm recovering with a strict diet of black coffee and stool softeners. And in the words of the famous old fart Paul Harvey, "And now you know, the rest of the story. Good Day

I had the bacon crunchwrap the other day. Seemed like basically every other fast food choice out there. It's unremarkable, but edible. Fast and filling.

Bacon AM Crunchwrap is dank; the sausage there is worse than mcdonalds ( ), so I'll stick with Hardees sausage biscuits. haven't tried anything there with steak yet, but their taco steak is pretty awful

How brave do you have to be to write a review trashing Taco Bell breakfast?

Would you say it's Harrison Ford in "Air Force One" brave or Harrison Ford in "The Fugitive" brave?

We tried each one of the items this weekend, and its fucking terrible.

However, the cinnabon ball things are a party in your mouth. Amazing.

Got the bacon breakfast burrito. After pulling off the shitload of extra tortilla and adding some hot sauce, it's pretty good. $1.69 is a good price too as it's a lot more substantial than you'd expect from a dollar menu.

i had the breakfast burrito this morning, and the cinnaball thingies as well. while the burrito was was decent, the cinnaball thingies were glorious. but then again, anything greasy tastes like heaven when you're hungover.

Yeah pretty much. I had one with sausage. Bland as all fuck. Sonic's sausage and egg burrito is way tastier and gets bonus points for being served all day. I hardly ever stop at a fast food place for breakfast but if I do go her again I'll probably try one of those a.m crunchwraps since that fake maple syrup you get from fast food restaurants is disgusting to me and that eliminates the waffle taco.
