For a limited time, Taco Bell is offering a trio of "Double Stack Tacos" which is a soft tortilla on the outside with some nacho cheese spread on the inside and a crunchy taco inside.
I was going to try all 3 but surprisingly, the Taco Bell I went advised they were out of items for the Spicy Sweet option.
The Cool Habanero has seasoned beef, shredded lettuce, reduced fat sour cream and Habanero sauce and cheese on the inside.
The Nacho Crunch has seasoned beef, shredded lettuce, crunchy red tortilla strips, cheese on the inside.
Neither taco I got looked like the ones in the ads. There was not much nacho cheese between the layers and the fillings were more sparse.
Both were like a regular taco, but with the tortilla on the outside, it didn't fall apart as easy as the tortilla with the cheese sauce on the inside helped to keep it held together.
As far a flavor, they were very similar with the Cool Habanero having a mildly hot sauce offset by the coolness of the sour cream and the Nacho Crunchy a little milder with the crunchy texture. If I had to choose a favorite between the two, I would pick the Nacho Crunchy as I liked the added bit of crunch on the inside, but everyone has their personal preferences.
They are a good deal for the price at $1; it is .19 cents less than a regular taco and get you an additional tortilla, nacho sauce and either crunchy strips or Habanero sauce and sour cream (depending on which you choose).
The downside is by having tortilla and nacho cheese, you are probably adding around 150 calories per taco so if you are on a diet, the lower calorie option would be to stick to the regular taco and consider making it a "Fresco" taco, which will replace the cheese with Pico De Gallo for an additional .30 cents.
