I've moved back to my country of birth and Taco Bell seems to be a thing here now.
I've tried the quesadillas and the crunch supreme and it's been... life changing.
What else should I be trying?

True Mexican food from an actual restaurant. For your health.
When I visit the US I do this exclusively from family-owned restaurants, hence why I've never tried Taco Bell.
But very few exist here, and none within delivery distance from me.
Mexicans love Taco Bell though. (Am half Mexican) And it's probably the healthiest of the fast foods. Plus, OP asked about what to eat at Taco Bell, so your reply isn't helpful
So many people shaming OP in here 😅
They never said they eat it all the time. Calm down everyone; let them enjoy themselves.
The black bean crunchwrap supreme can be made vegan if you order it fresco!
If you eat meat, the breakfast crunch wrap supreme is made by angels.
If Taco Bell ever releases a Breakfast crunch wrap supreme with impossible sausage, I will eat it 5 days a week and balloon to 400 pounds.
when they are available, the nacho fries are incredible also.
They have the new cantina chicken menu, but I haven't tried it yet. Looks good, though.
The Cantina Chicken Quesadilla is one of my favorite items lately. The new green sauce is pretty good too.
Try not eating taco bell.
But on the real, anything with a chalupa shell(deep fried gordita/flatbread) just elevates stuff there. Neither their gordita or chalupa are traditional in any sense of the word but fried bread is so good imo.
If you can get their potatoes when they are absolutely fresh, they are fire but if they've been sitting for any amount of time, the just taste like breaded cardboard.
Some of my favorites:
- Chicken flatbread melt (like a taco but with a fluffy flatbread instead of a tortilla)
- Beefy 5 layer burrito
- Cantina Chicken Quesadilla
- Breakfast Crunchwrap (preferably steak)
Definitely the Mexican Pizza. Drizzle w/ at least 2 packets of your preferred sauce (Diablo for me), and enjoy!
I'd argue you already tried the best two things, but maybe give the Chalupa a try as those are pretty good from what i remember.
