Toasted Cheddar Chalupa<\/a>, still makes a delicious enough mark on the ever-changing and always evolving Taco Bell menu.<\/p>\n![\"Taco](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Taco-Bell-Forbidden-Melt-Taco-3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&ssl=1\" "\\"Taco")

But, to this hungry Chicano, what truly makes the Forbidden Melt even better is the titular “melted” part inside the taco shell. Beyond the zesty meat, cool reduced-fat sour cream, iceberg lettuce, and shards of cheese is what has to be a good ladle’s worth of Taco Bell’s patented nacho cheese, poured along the edible fault-line, definitely making it even more verboten.<\/p>\n
The main problem \u2014 and this, sadly, is usually an issue with many Taco Bell products \u2014 is that while the molten cheese is a bright yellow cream dream come true, after a few minutes of sitting in the bag, the belly of this blue corn beast swells to a mostly soggy mess. The cheese sauce completely seeps through the specially-made taco shell.<\/p>\n
The one tip I have to defeat this meat-loosening bulge? Take some time, try to relax, and enjoy the Taco Bell Forbidden Melt Taco fresh out of the fryer, while the outside is still a crispy lark and the inside a gooey mess. Instead of going through the drive-thru, how about setting up in the dining area, quietly learning to love this blue corn-based forbidden fruit Taco Bell menu item.<\/p>\n
