1. Taco Bell is introducing a new Grilled Cheese Dipping Taco nationwide on August 3. This is the first time the chain is using slow-braised shredded beef in their offerings. 2. The new item is inspired by quesabirria, a popular Mexican dish. The taco will be filled with the shredded beef and a three-cheese blend, and served with two dipping sauces: warm nacho cheese sauce and a savory red sauce. 3. The Grilled Cheese Dipping Taco will cost $3.49. Early reviews, including those from TikTok creator @YungFoodBeast and YouTuber Jack On The Go Show, have been generally positive, though some have questioned whether the price is worth it.
