Taco Chain Cheese Blends

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Taco Bell Has a New Line of Shredded Cheeses Based on Its Iconic Flavors

— January 27, 2019 — Lifestyle
Taco Bell is making it easier than ever to enjoy the chain's signature flavors at home with its new shredded cheese blends. Whether you're whipping up homemade tacos, burritos, or quesadillas, these tasty cheeses will kick any dish up a notch.

Designed for the home chef who appreciated convenience, Taco Bell has debuted four new cheese blends that come pre-shredded for easy cheesing. Of these four blends, the 7-Layer Blend is perhaps the most impressive with seven kinds of cheese in one handy package. There is also a Zesty Ranch variety featuring Monterey Jack and ranch seasoning, and a Salsa Verde variety with Monterey Jack, three types of cheddar, and salsa verde seasoning. Finally, there is the Breakfast Fiesta flavor, which combines cheddar cheeses with bacon and added smoke flavor.

For cheese lovers eager to get their hands on the new collection, all of the cheese blends can be found at Meijer.
