“At Taco Bell, vegetarians are not an afterthought. We sell more than 350 million vegetarian menu items each year, but until now haven’t been vocal about it,” said Brian Niccol, CEO, Taco Bell Corp. “The recent launch of ta.co, which makes customization easy made this the perfect time to move our vegetarian menu from the background to the forefront to further illustrate our commitment to delivering food that fits our customers’ evolving lifestyles.”
Taco Bell’s vegetarian menu offers 13 AVA-certified menu items, such as the 7-Layer Burrito and Cantina Power Veggie Bowl. Customers can also customize their order with 35 AVA-certified vegetarian ingredients, 26 of which are vegan.
