Taco Bell Brings Back the Quesalupa ✖ The past several months have been challenging for Taco Bell fans with the restaurant's menu changes seeing the departure of a number of long-time fan-favorite items, such as the Mexican Pizza and the 7-Layer Burrito. Now, though, Taco Bell is bringing a favorite back. After a five-year hiatus, the Quesalupa is headed back to the menu and not just back, but better than ever with 50 percent more cheese inside its double-layered shell. The Quesalupa debuted in 2016 and was an instant hit. The item combined the cheesy goodness of a quesadilla with the crispy chalupa shell to create the cheese-filled experience. The Quesalupa was one of the brand's biggest limited-time offers in Taco Bell history.
