TACO BELL — CRUNCHY TACO, $1.49. They looked the same as they ever did — maybe even better.
The hard corn tortilla was slightly cracked on the bottom, and the meat juices had soaked through slightly.
There was a fluffy pillow of shredded lettuce and cheese.
The beef was juicy and saucy with a springy bite, and the crispy, albeit watery lettuce provided sharp, fresh contrast. The cheese added a barely noticeable tang.
All-in-all, you get what you expect from a Taco Bell Crunchy Taco: a satisfying, light, and well-balanced snack.
BURGER KING — CRISPY TACO, $1. This dense, malformed food creature should have stayed in the bag.
Burger King's taco was much smaller. At first glance, the filling was a mystery, and the outer shell was strangely warped.
And upon biting into it, I was even more bewildered. The beef wasn't there at all, and the filling actually tasted more like beans.
The cheese was melted, even though Burger King's description promises shredded cheese. The hot sauce was nowhere to be seen, found, or tasted.
Even though BK's Crispy Taco is almost 50 cents cheaper, it's much smaller and tastes worse than Taco Bell's Crunchy Taco.
If I'm craving a classic hardshell, I'm sticking with Taco Bell's. It's more than worth the premium.
