US-based Mexican-inspired brand Taco Bell has added a $2 Duo combo item to its restaurant menu.

Available across the US, the $2 Duo menu item features a triple melt burrito and a baja blast, or any other beverage of choice.

Taco Bell chief brand officer Marisa Thalberg said: “We have already passed the half-way mark in our commitment to introduce 20 new $1 items in 2018 with no intention of slowing down.

“We know consumers are smart enough to discern the difference between ‘cheap’ vs. being offered something they really want, at an amazing price.”

“It’s part of our continued commitment to deliver unsurpassed craveability with unsurpassed affordability.

“We know consumers are smart enough to discern the difference between ‘cheap’ vs. being offered something they really want, at an amazing price. That is the definition of true value, and that is where we will continue to land.”

The triple melt burrito is made using seasoned beef, a shredded three-cheese blend and warm nacho cheese sauce.
