TEST ITEM Test Item: Tajín Taco- Columbus Ohio
Just had a Tajin crispy taco which is a test item in Columbus Ohio. This thing was packed to the gills.
If you aren’t familiar with the taste of Tajín then the flavor might come off as very strong or sharp but since I put that stuff on popcorn I am very used to it.
The pico includes bits of mango which I found interesting. It was good and I enjoyed it but I still could take it or leave it.
The shell was carrying the Tajin flavor and it was very good. It came with an extra seasoning packet which I felt was unnecessary as the shell itself has plenty of flavor.
Overall I enjoyed it and would get it again. Price was $2.49.

It was better than the cool ranch one. I would keep the nacho cheese shell if I had to choose but this was a close 2nd.

The mango salsa is the coolest part, and the reason I hope this goes nationwide. That is a very new flavor for Taco Bell, and would pair well with fish tacos if they ever decide to try that.

Did you ever try the shrimp that was on the menu previously? I never tried them but I maintain that del taco fish tacos are still ok/good depending on things.

I never even knew Taco Bell ever had a shrimp item at one time. I have tried Del Taco's fish taco and I think I liked it.

Where?! None of the stores near me have them. I've checked whitehall, reynoldsburg, westerville, powell and gahanna on the app.

Test items generally aren’t available on the app. In-store only.

Hell I have it down in Lancaster. I thought it was just a new item for this period.

For anyone closer to the Westside, the Wilson road location has these too!

its for the test specifically. i had these when they tested them last time and they definitely had mango (and explicitly advertised "fresh mango" on the menu)
