It turns out that there is an entire unspoken world of secret menu items in the fast food world. I decided it was my duty to go and explore these possibilities  starting with my favorite fast food haunt - Taco Bell.

These "secret" menu items have apparently been a fad for a very long time, and have poked up in various articles all over the Internet. I came across a thread on Reddit while doing some "research" for another blog I was working on. As I was reading through all the secret food items I've been missing out on, one stood out among them all!

THIS GLORIOUS CONCOCTION:

Ladies and Gentleman what you're looking at is a Cheesy Gordita Crunch, but with a Doritos Crunch shell instead of your typical corn hard shell. This was one of the items suggested in the Reddit thread, and it was the first one I sought to try for myself.

I wolfed down two of these bad boys, and the final verdict was Two BIG thumbs up from me! So next time you're at a Taco Bell, ask them to replace your hard shells in your Cheesy Gordita Crunch with some delicious Doritos shells! You're not going to regret the decision!
