Taco Bell is a Mexican fast food chain from the United States. It gained popularity for tacos and burritos made by order, and currently has 6,000 stores worldwide, mainly in the United States. Although it opened in Japan in the 1980s, it soon withdrew, and the only domestic stores were in the US military base. This time it will be reopened.

Taco Bell's classic menu is "Tacos", which is made by baking corn flour and wheat flour and wrapped with ingredients such as meat, lettuce, and cheddar cheese, and "Tacos", which is meat, salsa, rice, and vegetables wrapped in tortillas. "Burrito", "Quesadilla" with plenty of cheese, etc. All are made after receiving an order, and the meat and ingredients can be customized. In Japan, "Shrimp & Avocado Burrito" and "Taco Rice" are also offered as limited menus.
