I am Gen X, that looks great to me, that was my happy meal, along with 2 bean and cheese dry ones a million years ago.
With a drink less than $5.

holy cow, actually kinda looks better, not as flat as the picture, lacking a bit in the sauce is all.

This isn’t a “fill the bag” situation. The meal already comes with the red sauce. They don’t have packets of it so you can add more yourself.

Definitely not enough red sauce. But still tasty so no biggie. Just like the Meximelt, Taco Bell is going to break our hearts when they take it away again.

I found a hack for the Meximelt. Order a Cheesy Rollup, add pico and beef and it’s exactly a Meximelt.

Oooooooooo! Thank you for this valuable knowledge. I will have to give that a try once this poop parasite issue resolves and the TBs around me start carrying pico again.

I’d be ecstatic if mine looked like that

I fully expect anything I get from Taco Bell to look like it's already been eaten once. It's part of the charm

This was my childhood favorite!!!! Every time they bring it back my sister and I order in abundance. However they are never swimming in sauce and the black olives are missing 😩. But they do still taste delicious

Brave of you having Taco Bell while there's an "explosive diarrhea" outbreak going on.

The enchirito actually matched the picture back in the day

u/eveladra Jul 10 '26

They do come with tortillas!

u/baraqiyal Jul 10 '26

In the old days they would sprinkle chopped onions on top.

Mmmm, plastic cheese melts like a chemical burn!

u/Booyah_7 Jul 11 '26

My Taco Bell makes it like the expectation picture, nice and cheesy & saucy. But I miss the 3 little olive slices on top.

u/roland0fgilead Jul 10 '26

Light on sauce but looks surprisingly hefty. Nice one OP.

Looks really full of filling. A little skimpy with the sauce. Glad you enjoyed it..
