"The quesarito, a burrito made with a quesadilla as the wrapper that was originally credited as a Chipotle secret menu item, was first launched by Taco Bell back in 2014. While it was seemingly discontinued for good in 2023, it will return December 18. The mashed-up quesadilla burrito will have the classic filling of seasoned beef, rice, chipotle sauce, and sour cream, and will retail for $4.99."
"This fast food comeback is also famous because a commercial for the product was aired by ESPN instead of the live footage of Jokić being drafted in 2014. Instead of showing the important career moment, the network simply displayed a graphic of Jokić's name under a video of actors chowing down on the burrito. Jokić has gone on to become one of the greatest basketball players of his generation, winning both an MVP title and NBA Championship,"
Taco Bell will bring back the quesarito on December 18. The quesarito uses a quesadilla as the wrapper and contains seasoned beef, rice, chipotle sauce, and sour cream. The item originally launched in 2014, was credited to a Chipotle secret menu origin, and appeared to be discontinued in 2023. The comeback will retail for $4.99 and includes a $1 promotion for Taco Bell Rewards members on December 23 for the first 30,000 participants via the Taco Bell app starting at 2 pm PT. The limited run has no announced end date. A 2014 ESPN commercial that aired during Nikola Jokić's draft instead of live footage contributed to the item's notoriety, and Taco Bell is inviting Jokić to try the quesarito.
