Unwrapping Taco Bell’s Cantina Chicken Menu

Unwrapping Taco Bell’s Cantina Chicken Menu

On March 21, Taco Bell launched its new Cantina Chicken Menu to consumers nationwide. Eager to try these new items, I visited the Taco Bell in Northeast Park, Minneapolis, and sampled a variety from this chicken-centered menu. My order was: Cantina Chicken Bowl, Cantina Chicken Quesadilla, a Coke and a Baja Blast and the Cantina Chicken Burrito and Taco Meal.
