I felt so sorry for you Jacob, when you had your first look at the meximelt. Thank goodness you got the right one in the end lol. Glad Jen enjoyed it too. 15 hours driving wow in aww of you xx Bev 🇬🇧
I am SO excited and absolutely share your adoration of the Meximelt!! Hands down my #1 favorite cancelled Tacobell treat along with the chili cheese burrito! I had no idea until now it was back. OMG I can’t wait to get one tomorrow!! You made my day Jacob!
I remembered when Taco Bell used to have retro chairs and have the Choco Taco. I would get that all the time for dessert back in the '90s. Hope you have a great time Jacob and Jenn!
Tostada is my favorite. I was sad when they stopped. I always asked them to put the green sauce on it. Thank you for letting all of us know about the retro menu.❤

You were at the Taco Bell in my town of Lakewood, NY in the Chautauqua Mall parking lot - about 3 minutes from my house! They have always been terrible. Screwing up orders, mis-making food, etc. The employees just don’t care. It’s endemic of our region, unfortunately. On behalf of myself and the citizenry of our area, let me apologize for your less than stellar meal. I’m glad you found a decent location a few hours later. I was happy to see that you were in town, though I wished I had known. Just want to shake your hand for the years of entertainment you’ve provided for me. Anyway, keep that dirigible in the air, my friend!
Now I could eat about ten Taco Supremes. I ❤️ Taco Bell…,and I love both of you and the fun times you share with us. Jenn, I want that sweater! It’s so pretty!
Years ago burger King tried to bring back the yumbo. It wasn't even close to be the same. The bun was wrong, the meat was dry and there wasn't enough cheese.
Not nostalgic for Taco Bell, but am for Zantigo’s, who sold the original Chilito, yum! All our Zantigos were closed and taken over by the inferior Taco Bell. That highway sign mural was amazing!
I remember the playgrounds with metal jungle gyms and gravel for the ground and the gravel imbeded in my knees, the good ol days lol. I miss the Taco Salad at Taco Bell. I love taco salads and the crunchy shell. I wish they would bring it back . 🌮
I feel you Jacob, when comes to Taco Bell. My favorites are the Crunchwrap “hexagon of heaven”, the grilled stuffed burrito, and the double decker taco. The grilled stuffed is gone, but the double decker taco here in MI is back.
I have a similar Meximelt story. I had no idea they even existed until I went with a friend one time and he ordered some. I tried it and it was an instant love. The Meximelt and the Baja chalupa were my favorite things they ever had, but of course they got rid of the Baja sauce several years ago, so you can't get the Baja chalupa anymore either. I'm hoping they will bring back the Baja sauce someday, but I hope it will be the original recipe and not the one they started selling in grocery stores, because it is NOT the same. (I'm as passionate over Baja sauce as Jacob is over Meximelts. lol)
Disciples of the Meximelt REJOICE! IT HATH RETURNED! I'm right there with you! The Meximelt was the first thing I had from Taco Bell when I was little, and it was my absolute favorite.
My ex didn't really cook much, but one thing he was proud of was his "TacoRito", which was basically a large, wet burrito smothered in a beef-gravy sauce. He'd spend hours making them, and they were very good. I recently realized they were just homemade Enchiritos, which I seemed to have missed at Taco Bell (I was mostly a Jack-In-The-Box guy). I'll look for the retro items.
My favorite that is no longer, is the "Enchirito". I wish they would bring it back. BTW, I met you at Queen Mary's Dark Harbor. I was the one with the walker working at the exit to the Breakout Maze. ❤
Taco Bell destroys my stomach now so I don't really eat it anymore, but that meximelt looks amazing. 🤤 I remember the scary Lucy statue. I hate that the artist quit doing what makes him happy. I hope he was able to feel happiness again. I'm sorry for your loss. 🙏
I worked at Taco Bell in 78 . It was my senior year. There was a sandwich called the Bell beefer . It wasn't too appealing lol . The name tickled the funny bone every time. There is a set of ingredients that they mix and matched and called each item something different. There was also a Beefy Tostada. They definitely skimped on the ingredients on the toastadas you had .
I'll be over here waiting for the Mexi-Melt rambling to end. I didn't know you could make a 20 minute or more video over the Taco Bell menu. LOL. I drifted off at 25 minutes.
Jacob I love them as much as you! They are great, also the cup from the second Taco Bell is from the 60s I managed a Taco Bell for a couple of years in the 80s my all time favorite food
We had gravel when I was a kid, most of the ones when my kids were little had grass and dirt. My son was born in 1981, too! My daughters were 1975 and 1978.
Forget all those items. Nothing was better than the Texas Taco Sandwich from the 90s. It was short-lived and became the Gordita. It was the BBQ sauce that made it special, but they went away forever.
After watching Jacob eat that giant steak in Texas, I'm seriously interested in seeing how many meximelts he can eat at once! It would be a great way to say goodbye to his favorite!
Hello Carpetbagger and Jenn. This video had me laughing so much. Starting when you said Jenn can you push me. Bummer that they used the wrong tortilla.
I worked at Taco Bell in the late 80s. We hated when customers ordered a maxi melt instead of a mexi melt. I jokingly said the next person who orders a maxi melt is going to get a pad covered in cheese. Nothing beats old taco bell when the beans and meat were made in house not boil in a bag. Also the enchirito is king when it comes to retro taco bell.
The Gordita and Chalupa came out at the same time. I am not a fan of the Gordita because I don't like the doughy shell. The fried Chalupa is so much better.
@@gdave53925_ you don't want to know. It's right there on the menu next to pintos and beans. This video really brought me back. When I would come home from work my sister would not be in the same room as me because I stank like Taco Bell
Hey Jacob! I LOVE THE MEXI MELTS. I would order about 4 each day for lunch when I was in High School. Back when you could leave school for lunch. Lol. I have Really missed these and now that they are back, I hope Taco Bell keeps them. Well gotta run to get some Mexi Melts. Glad you and Jen had a Great Vacation.
Jacob I’ve never had a MEXIMELT and can’t wait to have one just because of this video & story! lol 😆 I felt the disappointment that ya got because Taco Bell didn’t get it right for ya. 🌮 I didn’t eat at Taco Bell growing up either as I just make tacos at home. I love how they reused the signs as someone was very artistic, my favorite was the curly sheep 🐑 Oh gosh you got a MEXIMELT in y’all’s hands as it was like a beam of light down on Jacob holding it up 🌮💫💛
@@shawnmorris5693Eh, I don't see them as overbonded, because they both understand that they have to be apart a lot of the time, and they deal with that in a mature manner.
I AGREE!!!!!! MEXIMELT exactly how you described it,, memories/ nostalgia and to the weight of it! perfect man!! I LOVE THEM thanks both of you for the heads up!! ✌🏼 ✌🏼 ✌🏼 ✌🏼
I never thought I would see a presentation by a Taco Bell Connoisseur. Truly, a whirlwind of emotions, indeed. It was kind of interesting to see Jacob turn Food Aggressive over his Mexi-Melts though.
The two of you were so freaking funny. I do get it with certain foods. I have a couple of my own. I won't say I got a bunch and froze them LOL. I am happy for you Jacob it made my day for you to be so happy about your melt.
I used to work at Taco Bell. If you want a meximelt when they take them away again just order a soft taco, no lettuce, add pico and ask them to steam it. That’s it. 😊
That’s all I craved when I was pregnant in 1992.. TOSTADA! I can’t wait to get to Taco Bell this weekend! I’m getting one of each. Add some sour cream to the green bean burrito… memories 😊 I share your love of the Meximelt too. I have started ordering my own. Soft taco no lettuce add pico. Microwave at home to melt the cheese. I’m so excited lol
First time I ever ate Taco Bell was in the 80s with my old boss. I was a picky eater so he peer pressured me into getting a couple of Meximelts and steak soft tacos, never turned back!
Jacob, one of my Taco Bell favorites is the Chili Cheese Burrito and it is only available at certain Taco Bell's so when I find it I buy multiple and freeze them. Love having Jen in the videos as she is such a delight!
I worked at TB Summer of 1993 in Gainesville when I was going to UF. They had a WILD menu for awhile. Everything had WILD sauce in it and it was amazing!! it was a Tangy Hot Sauce sort of like a Buffalo style! Good times until your friends come thru the drive thru late at night a little tipsy and want you to hook them up with some FREE food! Ugh!
I got just as excited about the Double Decker taco when they brought it back a few weeks ago. Tell Jen that if she likes their tostada to try the one at Del Taco if there is any near you.
I ran right out and got the meximelt today (after I voted of course). This was my first time trying it, and it was pretty good. It's much better than a regular taco. My favorite is still the grilled cheese burrito with chicken. I think Jenn would like it, I too used to only buy the chicken quesadilla and didn't like beans or sour cream until my husband introduced them to me
It's only truly retro if they go back to 39 cents ..
YA RIGHT. Those days are over. Thank our friends in office
Ikr lol
As a West Virginian, I'm so happy my state could provide you with a positive MexiMelt experience!
I really miss the taco salad I wish it would come back
I’m with you
That was good too!
Yes! It was so good.
I used to work at Taco Bell in high school. The BEST way to eat a Meximelt is adding sour cream and creamy jalapeño sauce to it. Thank me later!
YUP! you a real one. also the new avocado salsa verde on them is fire!
Only the carpetbagger would do a 53 minute vlog on the return of the sacred mexi melt!
😊totally worth it
@@mollysmith1226I've often said that Jacob could unwrap a single slice of American processed cheese and make it interesting.
Genius You Tuber talent.
@maryblaufuss7533 i agree
What a tender moment with the maxy melt, I thought I saw a tear in Jacobs eye.
I had my first mexi melt today, it was made correctly, according to you, it was the best, thank you
Thanks for the shout out. The Meximelt is the Goat
The enchirito is the GOAT.
I felt so sorry for you Jacob, when you had your first look at the meximelt. Thank goodness you got the right one in the end lol. Glad Jen enjoyed it too. 15 hours driving wow in aww of you xx Bev 🇬🇧

Thank you, both of you for making me smile and laugh out loud. Yes, its supposed to be a plain flour tortilla.
My favorite part of this whole thing was Jacob saying well I have 4 more but we can go through and get you one hahahaha ❤
I only have five! I can't spare any! 😂 Honestly I don't blame him if these are his favorite lol
I remembered when Taco Bell used to have retro chairs and have the Choco Taco. I would get that all the time for dessert back in the '90s. Hope you have a great time Jacob and Jenn!
Choco tacos! I forgot about those
@@StinkyGringome too!
70s & 80s Tacos were the best.
Tostada is my favorite. I was sad when they stopped. I always asked them to put the green sauce on it. Thank you for letting all of us know about the retro menu.❤
Oh sure carpetbagger, make us all crave the Mexi Melt now
All a part of his master plan! By making us all want the meximelt, it becomes popular and thus stays on the menu forever! Mohahhahahahaha!!!
I’d say it’s time to fill the car kitchen with only Meximelts 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The playground in my town growing up had woodchips. My school had tiny rocks in it’s playground.
You were at the Taco Bell in my town of Lakewood, NY in the Chautauqua Mall parking lot - about 3 minutes from my house! They have always been terrible. Screwing up orders, mis-making food, etc. The employees just don’t care. It’s endemic of our region, unfortunately.

Cinnamon twists in the end yall rock u and Jen don't forget that!

Jacob you need to visit 1 of the SPIRT CHRISTMAS stores!! We need those in every state!!!
I absolutely love when you and Jen are together! The chemistry is electric and you both are so fun!!
See!? See!

Sometimes it's the simple things that are the most valuable. Like, right now. 😊

How hilarious and how observant of you. I wonder if it was intentional.
@@maryblaufuss7533everything ok Mary?
I hope you can get some well-deserved rest. The body can only handle so much. Please take care. 🙏
I also love the Mexi-melt more than any other TB menu items!!!
They need to bring back the taco salad!
You’re not alone Jacob. I’m right there with you. The meximelt is the greatest thing on the menu. I’ve also been sad since they took it away!

I’m going to Taco Bell now lol! You both are the funniest people to watch. I learn about different places! And food🥰
I hope Taco Bell brings back the Enchirito!
Enchiritos in the 70s & 80s were thee best!! They DO need to bring it back!!
What is funny is I actually have an original Taco Bell cup I saved from being a kid in the 90's. It's in my retro room. I want to get some now!
This was so cute! I'm going to Taco Bell tomorrow.

You all are super brave, Taco Bell on a long road trip
😂
There's a side on the ladybug, preventing grownups from climbing aboard. No fair.
Love TB!!! Meximelts rule!! You and Jen together is awesome too.
5 meximelts = 1 hour of walking. Since you to walk a lot, I don't think you'll gain any weight. Thank you for the food review of decades of Taco bell.

I used to love the Taco Light at Taco Bell in the 80's the shell was a really crispy light shell , yum yum!!!! was sad when they discontinued it

OMG! Celeron is down the road from where I live! WOW that’s so kool
I loved the tostada. They changed it and the newer ones weren't the same either. Definitely going to go get my favorites soon!
I just ate Taco Bell but I didn’t get their retro menu. Looks like Waynesville went Red I noticed 😂
I can’t wait for them to bring back the 7-layer burrito
The second mexi melt were like I remember.
I worked at TB Summer of 1993 in Gainesville when I was going to UF. They had a WILD menu for awhile. Everything had WILD sauce in it and it was amazing!! it was a Tangy Hot Sauce sort of like a Buffalo style! Good times until your friends come thru the drive thru late at night a little tipsy and want you to hook them up with some FREE food! Ugh!
I got just as excited about the Double Decker taco when they brought it back a few weeks ago. Tell Jen that if she likes their tostada to try the one at Del Taco if there is any near you.
I ran right out and got the meximelt today (after I voted of course). This was my first time trying it, and it was pretty good. It's much better than a regular taco. My favorite is still the grilled cheese burrito with chicken. I think Jenn would like it, I too used to only buy the chicken quesadilla and didn't like beans or sour cream until my husband introduced them to me
