Waxman Staff Writer Feb 24, 2014 8:11 PM UTC After testing it in select locations for about a year, Taco Bell’s Waffle Taco will appear on the chain’s national breakfast menu, beginning March 27, [the Associated Press reports](http://www.8newsnow.com/story/24806790/taco-bell-adds-waffle-taco-other-breakfast-items). During its test run, the “sandwich” — a waffle wrapped around a sausage patty or bacon with eggs and cheese and syrup on the side — had been selling for [89 cents](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/05/16/taco-bell-testing-out-waffle-tacos/) and reportedly had about [460 calories](http://bigstory.ap.org/article/taco-bell-expanding-test-waffle-taco-breakfast) and 30g of fat. Reviews have been mixed. A Los Angeles _Times_ [taste test](http://articles.latimes.com/2013/may/14/news/la-dd-taco-bell-waffle-taco-first-bite-20130514) called it “rubbery” and “mushy.” **MORE:** [Taco Bell Is Testing a Waffle Taco](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/05/16/taco-bell-testing-out-waffle-tacos/) **LIST:** [13 Sassiest Brands on Twitter: Taco Bell](http://newsfeed.time.com/2014/02/07/sassiest-brands-on-twitter-ranked/slide/taco-bell/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/9483/behold-taco-bells-waffle-taco/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/9483/behold-taco-bells-waffle-taco/"},"headline":"Behold Taco Bell's Waffle Taco","datePublished":"2014-02-24T20:11:22.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:07:17.672Z","description":"The fast-food chain is adding the curious culinary creation, a waffle wrapped around a sausage patty or bacon with eggs and cheese and syrup on the side, to its breakfast menus nationwide starting March 27","url":"https://time.com/9483/behold-taco-bells-waffle-taco/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Food & Drink","breakfast","Taco Bell"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt19fb330de749c0a6/698682fdcd804d2810cc971b/waffle_taco.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
