Taco Bell Revives Nostalgia with the Return of the Decades Menu Featuring Caramel Apple Empanada and Other Beloved Classics

 

Taco Bell’s Decades Menu Revives Caramel Apple Empanada and Other Favorites


Taco Bell is giving long-time fans a tasty trip down memory lane.

 

The fast-food chain has launched a special Decades Menu that features iconic items from its 60-year history. A selection of five classic items will make their comeback, each priced at $3 or less.

“The Decades Menu connects generations of fans who remember these dishes with a new crowd who haven’t yet tried the delicious Tostada, the famous Green Sauce Burrito, or the satisfying Meximelt,” the company shared in a recent announcement.

 

One of the items returning is the Caramel Apple Empanada, which first appeared in the early 2000s and was retired in 2019. The crispy dessert filled with apple and caramel will return on Nov. 21.

The additional four items will be available nationwide on Oct. 31, including the chain’s original Tostada offering.
