The Supreme has it all while the Sliders unfortunately only have 1/3 as much. Ultimately, it's just unfair to compare these Sliders to the Supreme. If you have had any of the loaded chicken Loaded Grillers, this has almost the exact same flavor.But the same problem I have with the Beefy Cheddar is present here as well - the Fritos were water logged by the time I dug in. I personally don't mind the shredded chicken and enjoy it with the chipotle sauce, which gives it just a hint of heat and a good amount of smokiness. The big issue for most people here is going to be the shredded chicken, which seems to draw divided opinions. The Spicy Chicken Slider is Taco Bell's shredded chicken with chipotle sauce and Fritos. That said, it tasted good, but I would still order the Beefy Frito Burrito over this Slider any day. I just wish so desperately, that the Fritos had stayed crunchy. This is the only Slider with a filling flavorful enough to combat the 4 layers of tortilla. I waited not more than the 3-4 minutes it took to take photos before digging in and the Fritos had lost all of their crunch. So the real question is, how are the Fritos? And the answer is: extremely soggy. Anyone who frequents Taco Bell (and isn't a vegetarian) is familiar with these flavors - you are essentially getting Taco Bell's bread and butter. The Beefy Cheddar Slider is the most similar to the Supreme since it has beef and the warm nacho cheese, and quite frankly, it's a combination that works. If you are looking to feel full, this isn't the Slider for you. The only issue is that this item is, quite frankly, not nearly as filling as the other two. I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed the BLT Crunchwrap slider - the pairings of all the flavors worked and the Fritos offered the proper amount of crunch. The Fritos were extremely crispy and the ranch dressing was great in place of mayo. To my surprise, there was a fair amount of bacon and tomatoes in there as well. How could I not expect this to be awful? I honestly expected nothing but iceberg lettuce with a small amount of Fritos sprinkled in. Out of all of the Sliders, this was the one I was most worried about going in. The BLT Crunchwrap Slider comes with, as I'm sure you guessed, bacon, lettuce, and tomato as well as creamy avocado ranch dressing and Fritos. As such, in my mind, the Sliders never stood a chance of being a truly great dollar item due to the overwhelming amount of tortilla. With the Sliders however, almost the entire Slider has four layers of tortilla due to the way it's folded and there just isn't enough filling to combat that. Normally it's only the bites of the outermost edge and there is enough filling for them to still be enjoyable.
On the Supreme, some of the edge pieces can be a little bit less enjoyable since you have to eat through four layers of tortilla. BUT, the size does make a difference when folding. As you know, the sliders are smaller than the Supreme which is not an issue since you are paying much less for them. Each comes with Fritos along with various fillings detailed below.īefore I get into each one individually, I need to address the major issue with all of the Sliders. Taco Bell rolled out three varieties: BLT, Beefy Cheddar, and Spicy Chicken. The most obvious change is the lack of a crispy tortilla, a handful of Fritos have been substituted in to provide the crunch and saltiness. Since they are a dollar, Taco Bell obviously had to cut some corners. That's right, for four quarters, 10 dimes, or 1 Sacagawea you can purchase one of three Crunchwrap Sliders. Taco Bell rolled out three Crunchwrap Sliders and each one retails for only a dollar. Depending on your Taco Bell it can range from $2.50 to $3.50 and while I will pay this much for such a perfect entree, sometimes you're balling on a budget. Combined it makes for literally the perfect Taco Bell item. When you take that first bite, you get every single food sensation there is. Then it is placed on a sandwich press to give it a nice browning.
For those who are not fortunate enough to be able to do that, it's a large tortilla filled with taco meat, nacho cheese, sour cream, lettuce and tomato topped with a crispy tortilla puck and then all folded to create a hexagon. For those who have never had the pleasure of eating one of these hexagons of joy, please stop reading, go to Taco Bell, and try one. In a previous post, I gushed about how much I love the Crunchwrap Supreme and, with that being said, I want to gush over it some more. It's been a while since I've written anything for the blog but good ole Taco Bell got me to come out of my hibernation 1 with its new Crunchwrap Sliders.
