Did Taco Bell change Mexican Pizza recipe Company denies rumours

Fans detect a change in the flavor of Taco Bell's Mexican Pizza (Image via @tacobell/Instagram) Taco Bell brought back earlier this month. However, fans believe it's not the same pizza they have showered with love in the past. The Mexican fast-food chain took the item off the menu in September 2020, leading to a consumer outburst accompanied by numerous social media posts and a petition with over 100k signatures to bring it back.

Fans believe that Taco Bell s Mexican Pizza has changed

The pizza was added to Taco Bell's menu in 1994. It is made with two tortilla sheets, layered with pizza sauce, beans, seasoned beef, tomatoes, and a melted three-cheese blend. However, fans who purchased the item after its re-release shared that they sensed a change in the item. The difference is very subtle and probably connected to the tortilla base. Reporter Colette Bennett explained the change by saying: "This shell has less of the lip-smacking flavor of the original, and the texture has changed a bit as well. The taste was a bit more flour-heavy, and while the crunch was still there, it was not as pleasurable as the original." One user posted on social media saying that the original was "lighter and flakier and didn't taste like corn tortillas." Numerous Twitter users felt the same way, and here are some of their reactions: Does anyone else think the Mexican pizza tastes different now that it’s back? ?Does anyone else think the Mexican pizza tastes different now that it’s back? ? Taco Bell brought back the Mexican pizza, but it tastes different Taco Bell brought back the Mexican pizza, but it tastes different Just got a mexican pizza from Taco Bell and it is not the same.

Twitter user @somedetroitguy posted: "Was so disappointed with the new Mexican Pizza. The old fried flour tortilla was amazing - changing it to a hard, tostada-style corn tortilla is a huge downgrade and made it inedible." This could be true, looking at Taco Bell's statement upon the return of the dish. The statement read: "The masterminds in the Taco Bell test kitchen worked to streamline operations and ingredient sourcing, and leave a lighter footprint at the same time." However, upon being questioned about any changes, a company spokesperson confirmed that no ingredients were changed in the Mexican Pizza.
