"The Quesarito, which was introduced in 2014, was a cheese quesadilla rolled into a burrito shape and stuffed with beef, rice, sour cream, nacho cheese, and chipotle sauce. Of course, it could also be customized to each customer's liking. Interestingly, there are some reports that the Quesarito originated as a Chipotle secret menu item, which makes it all the more fitting that fans of the dish turned to Taco Bell's fast casual Mexican food competitor after it was discontinued."
"Anyone who has felt an aching void in their heart (or stomach) since the discontinuation of Taco Bell's Quesarito can order virtually the same dish at Chipotle using a clever menu hack. When ordering a burrito, just ask Chipotle to substitute the flour tortilla for a cheese quesadilla. As always, be polite when using Chipotle ordering hacks and secret menus."
Taco Bell discontinued the Quesarito in 2023, prompting strong fan backlash across social media and some customers vowing to stop visiting the chain. The Quesarito, introduced in 2014, consisted of a cheese quesadilla rolled into a burrito and stuffed with beef, rice, sour cream, nacho cheese, and chipotle sauce, and could be customized. Reports suggest the Quesarito may have originated as a Chipotle secret-menu item. Chipotle customers can recreate the Quesarito by ordering a burrito and requesting a cheese quesadilla in place of the flour tortilla. Online and third-party ordering logistics and staffing variability affect the feasibility of customizations.
