With Taco Bell’s Triplelupa and a four-patty Big Mac, now we can eat our feelings
It somehow feels right that this week, as we watch our 401s crater and face the prospect of missed paychecks and school closings, two major fast food chains debuted oversized versions of their already elephantine offerings. On Thursday, Taco Bell began selling something called the Triplelupa, which you might have guessed is an extended remix of its popular chalupa.
Alas, it turns out that adding protein doesn’t improve this icon. The mega-meat situation dwarfs not only the bun but also takes over the rest of the elements, particularly the ones that I like best. The sharp tang of the onion was lost, as was the sweet-and-briny notes you get from the pickles. The special sauce didn’t seem quite so … well, special in this concoction.And this behemoth is a beast to eat. Try wrangling seven, count ’em, seven layers into something you can bite into — it’s a feat.
It’s a triumph: compact, right-sized and perfectly balanced — and if you’re looking for excess , maybe order a couple?
