If something goes wrong
The menu name looks duplicated
- Cause
- Taco Bell listed this row as a Black Bean Grilled Cheese Burrito followed again by the words black beans when the burritos page was first read on 19 August 2026. A second, narrower fetch of the same page returned the shorter name.
- Fix
- Treat the repetition as a listing artefact on the company's own page. The price and the calorie count were identical on both readings.
Why is the black bean version cheaper?
- Cause
- Taco Bell posts $5.19 against $5.69 for the beef build and publishes no explanation. The same pattern appears on the Crunchwrap Supreme, where the black bean version is 90 cents cheaper.
- Fix
- Take the 50 cents as a real and published saving. Ten calories separate the two builds, which is inside any margin worth choosing on.
Black Bean Grilled Cheese Burrito is not in my app
- Cause
- The row appeared on Taco Bell's burritos page and nowhere else on the company's site, so its first-party footprint is a single page. Vegetarian builds are also among the rows most often skipped by individual restaurants.
- Fix
- Look under the standard Grilled Cheese Burrito and check whether a bean substitution is offered. Where it is, the price may not match $5.19.
The best return above four dollars, and it is meat-free
Sixteen burritos, eight of them priced at $4.19 or more. Rank those eight by calories per dollar and this row comes first, at roughly 131, ahead of the Quesarito at 122 and the beef Grilled Cheese Burrito at 121, and a long way ahead of the Burrito Supreme at 69. The vegetarian build wins its half of the section outright.
It also costs less than the build it replaces. Taco Bell posts $5.19 here and $5.69 for the beef version, with calorie counts of 680 and 690, so 50 cents comes off the price and ten calories come off the plate. Both numbers were printed on the same company page on the same day.
What's in it
Black beans, seasoned rice, nacho cheese sauce, chipotle sauce and reduced-fat sour cream in a flour tortilla, wrapped with a layer of melted three-cheese blend grilled onto the outside. The external cheese layer is what distinguishes the Grilled Cheese builds from everything else in this section. Calories are the only nutrition figure Taco Bell publishes, and for a bean burrito the missing protein number is the one people actually want.
Is it worth it
Against the beef version, plainly yes on the published numbers: cheaper, and within ten calories. Against the cheap half of the section it loses like everything else up here, since a Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrito returns 268 calories a dollar at $1.49. The honest framing is that $5.19 buys a construction, not a quantity.
Read across the menu and Taco Bell's treatment of black beans looks systematic. This row undercuts its beef equivalent by 50 cents, the Black Bean Crunchwrap Supreme undercuts the standard Crunchwrap by 90, and the Veggie Mexican Pizza, which substitutes vegetables rather than beans, is priced level with the beef version at $5.69. Three pairs, one consistent rule, and no published statement of it anywhere.
No outside list carries this burrito. Published prices recorded in August 2026 reach four rows in this section and none of them is a vegetarian build, so the company's $5.19 is unchallenged and also unconfirmed, with the usual note attached that prices vary by restaurant. For a row that beats every other burrito in its price bracket on the company's own arithmetic, an absence of outside interest is a slightly odd thing to find, and it says more about how those lists are compiled than about the burrito.
