The ironically named Corona Virus has indeed claimed Cinco De Mayo in the pandemic precautions. The virus has already taken St Patty’s Day traditions from us, but the gang over at Taco Bell will not sit idly by and allow the celebration of Mexican Independence to go un-partied.
While we may be celebrating in the safety of our homes and in smaller groups, the Taco Bell At-Home taco Bar kit is sure to kick this fiesta into a full-blown throw down. Intended for socially conscious groups of 6, the taco bar kits arrive deconstructed, packed and sealed, with eight flour tortillas, 12 crunchy taco shells, six ounces of nacho chips, seasoned beef, shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, sour cream, refried beans, nacho cheese sauce and hot sauce packets among other things. Taco Bell will also share recipes for its iconic menu items like the Double-Decker Taco, plus inspired cocktails and mocktails.
The timing is no accident, either. The popular restaurant chain notes that it wanted to have the taco bar kits rolling out just in time for Cinco De Mayo. “Our food has always been a catalyst of bringing people together, and we’re finding new ways to do this from a safe distance until we can all be together again,” Melissa Friebe, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing and Consumer Insights at Taco Bell, said in a press release. “No matter the meal they create, we’re excited to give fans a new at-home Taco Bell experience.”
The At-Home Taco Bar from Taco Bell is available for delivery now and certain Taco Bell drive-thrus for $25 USD. The special recipes should be up on the Taco Bell blog now.
