Taco Bell Lovers In Ohio Getting Burrito with Core of Cheese

Taco Bell keeps pulling a boundary when it comes to belt-busting, quick food mashups producing this one of a kind cheesy and slimy new burrito.

According to Brand Eating, the fast food chain is testing out a reverse quesarito, called a "core burrito," in Toledo, Ohio. If you've been following the Taco Bell test market trend, you'll know Toledo, Ohio is an important market that helps dictate a potential national release. 

 Not to be confused with Ben & Jerry's new "core" flavors - which launched last week - Taco Bell's core burritos feature a center "core" of cheese surrounded by rice and a layer of seasoned meat, all wrapped in two soft tortillas. They are also not to be confused with the original quesarito, which featured a cheesy quesadilla wrapped around a meat core.

So far, two flavors have been released for the new bomb food. The first is called a spicy core burrito and includes hot sauce in the outer layer and chunks of jalapeños in the cheese stuffing.  The crunchy core burrito is similar, but it substitutes red tortilla strips for the jalapeños. They currently are being tested in Toledo for $1.99.

Construction-wise it looks to be a flour tortilla, seasoned beef outer layer, then premium latin rice, and a Cheesy Roll-Up-style center.  The Spicy Cheesy Core Burrito has jalapeño peppers in its cheesy core which look to be made up of nacho cheese sauce (possibly includes a three-cheese blend/creamy jalapeño sauce).

The Mexican-American sequence contrasted the dual versions of a new Core burrito- radically one burrito wrapped in another, with a slimy core of queso.

The Spicy Core Burrito appears to underline an outdoor covering of beef (seasoned belligerent beef, chicken, or steak), a center covering of rice and prohibited sauce, all surrounding a core of nacho cheese, shredded cheese and jalapenos pressed inside another tortilla, On The Space reports.

According to Fox News, news of the core burritos comes a few days after Taco Bell released several new breakfast dishes to add to its dollar breakfast menu, which includes a mini skillet bowl and sausage flatbread quesadilla.
