Rigid and fried, the corn shell holds seasoned ground beef, shredded lettuce, and cheddar cheese in the chain's basic taco format. It's assembled the same way at every location, usually served in pairs or as part of combo meals. Compared with softer options in the lineup, the fried shell stays brittle until the first bite, then cracks and flakes. The filling is straightforward: warm beef, cold lettuce, and a little dairy from the cheese. At roughly 170 calories per taco, it's one of the smallest items on the menu, and one of the easiest to identify by sight alone.
