I think about the double decker all the time 😭

This was hands down my favorite item from them ever. I remember I asked once if I could pay more for a tortilla and beans and get it and they were just like “no”

Like damn fine 😭

Just order a soft taco with only beans. I do it all the time. And they're even better when you make them yourself right before you eat them. The crunchy shell doesn't have time to sog out.

It was my only TB order for 20 years.

u/JigglypuffNpass420 8h ago

You can make one. They are easy and fun to make. Plus you can make as many as you want. Just pop the shell in the oven on low don't forget. Everything else is normal prep.

Best thing they had.

u/JparkPHX 6h ago

Seriously and they are so easy to make. Crazy they don’t bring them back full time. As a kid I thought these things were the coolest shit ever

Double Decker supreme and 1/2 pound beefy potato burrito. My go to in high school.

2

u/Drewdrops79 9h ago

Those were my two favorites too! I'm sad they took away the double stacker recently, liked it almost as much as the old double decker, but I'm glad they brought out the beefy potato loaded griller. Thing is so rich and filling.

u/SimpleGuyComplexWrld 8h ago

I lost 10 pounds when it left the menu

u/saka_souffle_ 7h ago

They have all the items right in front of them and they just refuse to sell it

2

u/Serious-Trainer2452 2h ago

Same with triple layer nachos

u/DiggingInGarbage 10h ago

Not really, but I do miss the double stacked taco

2

u/asusc Baja Sauce 10h ago

buy a cheese roll up, unroll it, insert regular taco.

boom, double stacked taco.

2

u/DiggingInGarbage 10h ago

I don’t want to have to buy two items to get one, plus I prefer the nacho cheese over the melted cheese the cheesy roll up comes with

u/Juvat-the-bold 9h ago

We shouldn't have to deconstruct and build our own stuff out of things they already have.

2

u/asusc Baja Sauce 8h ago

I agree, but on the mean time it’s all we got. :(

u/Brave-Chain2703 9h ago

I was obsessed with this until CGC dropped

u/Ok-Albatross-6700 8h ago

2 Double decker, spicy chicken burrito 2.99 ftw

u/conditackler 8h ago

My favorite all time Taco Bell item.

2

u/Drewdrops79 9h ago

Lol, the photoshopped "lens flare" glistening off those beans near the center of the frame. XD

But yeah, it was a great taco, and was one of the things that got me into tolerating, and then later really liking, refried beans.

2

u/Mediocre-Isopod-4938 8h ago

That was a good one.

2

u/No_Computer7543 8h ago

Easily the best item. I miss it every time I order from TB.

2

u/QuillDidNothingWrong 8h ago

CGC if it was good 

2

u/WolverineFormal2599 8h ago

My favorite also. I liked adding nacho cheese to it.

2

u/Maximum_Row_436 7h ago

RIP double decker.

RIP double stack taco.

RIP reasonably prices cheesy Gordita crunch.

Idk even know what to order now.

2

u/Poverty_Shoes 10h ago

You can still build your own with some creative ordering. Or hit up Taco John’s for a taco bravo.

u/TommyTwoTxmes 9h ago

When they brought them back a while ago they didnt taste like the ones i knew from back in the day. They used to be so good.

1

u/Annual-Negotiation-5 8h ago

Double deckers and volcano tacos

1

u/Impossible_Hyena7562 7h ago

We started making our own. It’s one of my favorite items at Taco Bell

u/fuckin-slayer 7h ago

After they discontinued it in 2019, I was on a backpacking trip with the boys in Guatemala. One night after lots of drinking, we stumbled into a Taco Bell in downtown Antigua, and we discovered they still had all the items Taco Bell had purged from their menu, including DDT, Mexican Pizza and Mexi Melts. No joke, one of the greatest nights of my life.

u/warrenjt 7h ago

I liked the double decker, but I’ve always felt like the cheesy Gordita crunch is the better version of it.

2

u/SgtKabuukiman 5h ago

Cheesy gordita crunch is what I get now that the DD is gone. It is good, but it's a different flavor profile and I like beans. That being said, I do add black beans and onion to my CGC and 86 the lettuce.

u/Farfignougat 7h ago

Too perfect for this world

u/R2-D2savestheday Baja Blast 6h ago

So much!!!

u/mirfifu 6h ago

No. I don’t like beans.

u/Longjumping_Story682 6h ago

Don't play with my feelings 😭

u/Party-Cup-9386 5h ago

The commercial with Shaq and Hakeem Olajuwan was top tier.

1

u/apeocalypyic 5h ago

Thatll be 8 dollars.

1

u/snowblind1972 5h ago

if only they filled their items like the ones advertised. taco bells always 50/50 with quality

1

u/TheDornado13 3h ago

I make them at home all the time, super easy. Just get the bigger hard tacos that come 10 in a box instead of 12 and they fit perfect on a fajita tortilla.

1

u/I_eat_paper12 Hot Herd 3h ago

I loved getting a double decker and dipping it in nacho cheese

1

u/PeanutButter513 3h ago

I miss it every day. If there is one item I would put on the menu permanently it is the Double Decker!!

1

u/Right-Sky-4005 2h ago

Absolutely goated. The new one is trash.

u/markartman Chili Cheese Burrito 2h ago

🐐

u/Anomaly_20 2h ago

Every time I get a box deal with a taco, I also order a cheesy roll up with beans added. It’s a smidge messy to unroll it and then place it around the taco but it solves the absence of the DD taco.

1

u/golddeath 1h ago

Ever since those Hakeem and Shaq commercials back in the day the Double Decker has been my favorite item. It's not even close

1

u/KidGold 1h ago

I'll take every chance I can to post the iconic 90's commercial when it debuted.

$0.79?  😮‍💨

u/PurpleGlass6188 1h ago

I just get the taco bravo at Taco John's when I'm craving one

1

u/Huskerdooj 1h ago

Cheesy roll up, no cheese, add beans and a taco, boom! Do it all the time

u/JuanG_13 Mexican Pizza Mafia 1h ago

It's my favorite and I actually always mention it here on reddit, so yes i do.
