Taco Bell expanded its breakfast menu in 2021.
Taco Bell announced its plans to make breakfast available at 90% of its restaurants nationwide in 2021.
The company also added several new items to the menu, including the Cheesy Toasted Breakfast Burrito, the Grande Toasted Breakfast Burrito, the Hash Brown Toasted Breakfast Burrito (with and without steak) and the Cheesy Toasted Breakfast Burrito Potato.
In 2022, the fast-food chain teamed up with comedian Pete Davidson and embarked on a cheeky ad campaign to apologize for two breakfast menu items — the Naked Egg Taco and the Waffle Taco — which previously flopped. The restaurant also revealed that it was sticking with more traditional breakfast offerings.
“Taco Bell got too caught up with today’s hustle and forgot people like to ease into their morning with tasty, simple food. Here to stay are delicious burritos and Crunch-things or Crunchwraps or whatever they’re called,” Davidson said at the time.
