INDIANAPOLIS (WXIN) – Nearly as soon as it returned, some Taco Bell loca- tions across the United States sold out of the Mexican Pizza – and it’s unclear when the fan favorite will be restocked.
“Because of the incredible love for the Mexican Pizza, we have begun selling out across the coun- try. Our restau- rant teams trained weeks for what we knew would be a big return, we just didn’t realize how big, and replen- ishing the beloved menu
item is taking longer than we’d like,” read a statement
on Taco Bell’s website.
Some locations have signs up signaling the Mexican Pizza is sold out, while workers at other Taco Bells have been telling cus- tomers the menu item is sold out before they even begin to order.
Taco Bell’s web- site said, “We’re working diligently with our restau- rants and suppli- ers to get more [Mexican Pizzas] back in the hands and stomachs of our biggest fans.”
It directed cus- tomers to follow its Mexican Pizza FAQ page for the latest details and information.
The Mexican Pizza returned to Taco Bell menus on May 19, about 18 months after it was removed in November of 2020 to the out- rage of many fast food lovers.
Taco Bell is also pushing back
its Mexican Pizza musical starring Dolly Parton and Doja Cat. It was originally sup- posed to pre- miere on TikTok May 26.
National Road Trip Day Marks The Start of Summer Travel Season
By Ben Hooper
May 27 (UPI) -
- National Road Trip Day, celebrat- ed annually on the Friday before Memorial Day, was started by a truck stop chain in 2019 to mark the unofficial start of the summer travel season.
The holiday was created in 2019 by Pilot Flying J, the largest opera- tor of travel cen- ters in North America, to cele- brate the tradition
of summer road trips.
The company said in a news release announc- ing the creation of the holiday that the Friday before Memorial Day was chosen because the weekend marks "the start of the summer road trip season."
Other holidays and observances for May 27, 2022, include Carb Day, Cellophane Tape
Day, Don't Fry Day, European Neighbors' Day, Heat Safety Awareness Day, National Cooler Day, National Death Busters Day, National Grape Popsicle Day, National Gray Day, National Heat Safety Awareness Day, National Title Track Day, National Wig Out Day, Nothing to Fear Day, Old Time Player Piano Day and National Sunscreen Day.
