On Sunday night during her Coachella performance, the singer shouted to the audience"I brought back the Mexican Pizza by the way!" which was then confirmed Monday by Taco BellTaco Bell’s Mexican Pizza is made of ground beef and refried beans sandwiched between two flat crispy tostadas, with cheese melted on top.
What followed was months of outcry from fans of the menu item, lobbying from the aforementioned singer and songwriter, and even athat, as of now, has 171,735 signatures. In a news release from Taco Bell, superfan and petition organizer Krish Jagirdar spoke on the impact of the item's discontinuation.
“Like many Indian-Americans who grew up vegetarian, we had limited access to the ‘fun’ fast food, so Taco Bell became a bridge to belonging in American culture for many kids like me who grew up in immigrant households,” Jagirdar said.
The Mexican Pizza was discontinued in November 2020 in an effort to streamline its menu and reduce its environmental impact, according to a write-up by. The article states that at the time, “the non-pizza's packaging accounted for more than 7 million pounds of paperboard material each year in the U.S.”Ever since Doja Cat first tweeted about the Mexican Pizza, Taco Bell has been using her as the social influencer for this return.
The Mexican Pizza costs $4.49 and members of Taco Bell's loyalty program can order it two days before its reintroduction, beginning May 17. It’s also available vegetarian without the seasoned beef., it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we'd like to keep it that way. With local media under siege, it's more important than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
