This Taco Bell combo is a cheap lunch play built around a Burrito Supreme, crunchy taco, and medium drink, with the Burrito Supreme doing most of the filling. The regular menu pricing makes the bundle look strong on paper, especially versus ordering each item separately, and the no online order or rewards account requirement is a plus. The main knocks are that the burrito can taste bland or mushy, and app checkout has been glitchy, with some orders jumping to full price or failing to refresh. A decent value if the deal price actually sticks.
The combo can work as a cheap lunch option when the deal price applies at checkout.
The Burrito Supreme inclusion can make the combo more filling than the Duo option.
The deal can be obtained without requiring an online order or rewards account.
The Burrito Supreme's high a la carte price can make the $4 combo feel inexpensive by comparison.
The app can show the promo selected but still charge a much higher price at checkout.
The app upgrade can make it harder to refresh quickly, which can prevent grabbing the drop.
The Burrito Supreme can be mushy and bland, which can reduce satisfaction even when the deal price is met.
Takeout presentation can suffer, with the burrito reportedly looking like soup when ordered to go.

The $99 dish, roasted with herb butter under the skin, comes with crunchy sourdough stuffing infused with foie gras and mashed potatoes whipped with butter.
Its creator, chef Harold Moore, who counts a Michelin star among his many honors, likens the harmony of his ingredients to another near-flawless dish: the Crunchy Supreme taco from Taco Bell.
"There is everything in the perfect bite," Moore said of the vaunted marriage of ground beef, shredded cheese, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and rich sour cream in a corn shell. "It's hot, it's cold, it's crispy, it's also supple. There's spice, but then it has sour cream that calms it. It's a very complete experience."
The "Live Más" lifestyle gets más love from chefs.
"The combination of the crunch, the fat and the brightness of the acidity of the crema, it's all there for a purpose: To make your mouth happy and to spark neurons in your brain," said chef Bricia Lopez, who co-runs what the late food critic Jonathan Gold once dubbed "one of the best Oaxacan restaurants in America."
That might come as a surprise.
In America's wild and often maligned fast-food kingdom, Taco Bell is a polarizing brand. Long before the chain became associated with this summer's cyclospora outbreak, the Bell reliably served as a stand-in for jokes about the perceived quality of fast food. "Taco Bell's Five Ingredients Combined in Totally New Way," read one classic headline from the Onion.
Still, the crown jewel in the Yum Brands portfolio engenders a loyalty that seems to last for life. Chefs and cooks—from haute cuisine to everyman grub—count themselves among the most devout.
"A lot of people think that chefs need a really home-cooked meal, fancy food or something that's intricate in their off time, but the answer is 'not really,'" said chef Dung "Junior" Vo, a co-founder of Noko Hospitality in Nashville, Tenn. He turns to Taco Bell for a reliable late-night, post-shift meal.
When Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin throws a going away party for an employee, it's often Taco Bell—and a lot of it. "It's a staple for a lot of service industry people," said the chef, restaurateur and three-time James Beard Award nominee in San Antonio.
Of course, mere convenience hardly captures the full love story.
Last year, when the Crunchwrap—Taco Bell's beloved toasted hexagonal foodstuff—turned 20, it inspired a grande-sized outpouring of affection. More than 100 million were sold. Many chefs have even created their own versions, replacing the original's rethermalized ground beef and nacho cheese sauce with fussed-over ingredients like pernil, bulgogi, birria and scratchmade salsas or sauces.
Dobbertin, who spent years in Thailand, created her own crunchwrap featuring a tortilla wrapped around marinated chicken in a khao soi coconut curry with avocado basil ranch and crisp wheat noodles for added crunch.
It was the Crunchwrap texture that Vo most wanted to emulate in one of his restaurant's grilled-cheese sandwiches. "You pick it up with your hands and when you bite into it, it has the truffle aioli, a little bit of saltiness from the prosciutto and the buttery crunch from the bread itself," he said. "It's as close to that kind of bite as possible."
Vo's own go-to Taco Bell order audaciously nods at the chain's encouragement of personalization: A chicken quesadilla bulked up with steak and ground beef. "It's kind of like a perfect meat lover situation that you can eat in the car without a mess."
The taco-driven symbiosis between the company and chefs goes back to the beginning. Founder Glen Bell operated a hot dog stand across the street from Mitla Cafe in San Bernardino, Calif., whose owners first taught him about the magic properties of the crunchy taco.
Brett Pluskalowski, a senior manager on the Food Innovation team, argues the company's Doritos Locos Taco, launched in 2012 and made with a Doritos-coated shell, opened a door for culinary experimentation that remains visible in the wide availability of fusion tacos fashioned from bao, roti, pita or nori.
"You can turn anything into a taco shell now," he said.
Taco Bell certainly has, using fried chicken, biscuits, waffles and even fried cheese. Pluskalowski has recently become obsessed with making a taco shell from tahdig, the scorched rice at the bottom of a pot of Persian rice.
It hasn't panned out yet, but if it does, chefs will be waiting. Some may even try to beat him to it.

Maybe BK will sell more nuggets because of the new recipe. But Whopper is unchanged except for the appearance. That's less profit because of the paper box.
