Taco Bell locations are running out of Mexican Pizza less than two weeks after its return

Taco Bell is running out of its Mexican Pizza, less than two weeks after the chain brought back the menu item.

The chain, owned by Yum Brands, said in a statement that it’s working with its restaurants and suppliers to get the item back on its menu permanently by the fall.

“We are working as fast as we can to restock Mexican Pizza ingredients,” the chain said on Twitter.

Taco Bell’s take on pizza includes seasoned beef and refried beans between two shells with a pizza sauce, melted cheese and tomatoes. Vegetarians can ask for it without the beef.

Demand for the Mexican Pizza was seven times higher than the last time it was on the menu, in November 2020, according to Taco Bell. The chain had cut Mexican Pizzas, pico de gallo and shredded chicken from its offerings as part of a push to simplify operations and focus on more popular items.

But after fans begged for Mexican Pizza to return, Taco Bell brought the item back, on May 19. One restaurant, in Roseville, California, sold more than 1,000 in one day, the company said.

I've never had one. I go every now and then, but I'm not a fan of Taco Bell. Anywho people at work were raving about it being back. Some one said the line at the drive through was very long
