Inspired by all things nostalgia, Taco Bell's latest is a nod to the over sixty years the brand has been serving customers.

What is on Taco Bell's 'Through the Decades' menu?
Taco Bell has curated a menu featuring one popular item from throughout the brand's history. The Through the Decades menu will take Taco Bell fans from the store's beginnings to the beloved brand they frequent today.
The tostada represents its inaugural era, the 60s. The original menu item consists of a crispy corn tostada shell layered with refried beans, tangy red sauce, lettuce, and shredded cheese.
For the 70s, they have the Green Burrito. The green burrito contains savory refried beans, crunchy onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and green sauce.
Next up is the 80s, represented by the Meximelt. It contains freshly prepared daily pico de gallo, a blend of mozzarella, cheddar, and Monterey jack cheeses melted with seasoned beef in a tortilla.
