In my experience, this is the norm. I never get the Crunchwrap as it’s always thing and loaded to one side

Theyve taken quite a nosedive in quality over the years. You usually end up with a whole lot of nothing followed by a pocket of cheese at the end.
In my experience, not even going double meat tends to help.
I switched to the cheesey gordita crunch for my boxes a while ago
Small_Tax_9432
Yup, that’s how it is now. 🙁
Aweksus
whaat why is everyone saying normal i get some loaded ones
joostinrextin
Depends on who made it. I get some like that. When I snagged the $1 drop on Tuesday, it was packed full like it should be. Pretty much all their items now vary by who makes them.
Godiva_Shaman
it’s fairly common, but not the norm. it’s definitely supposed to have more in it. TB quality control, especially of the crunchwrap, varies SO much. thankfully my go-to location does a pretty good job of filling them up.
Internal-Motor
Mine have all looked like that.
DatMikkle
Isn’t Taco Bell literally getting hit with a lawsuit of false advertising over their Crunchwraps? Because they always look this thin and pathetic now.
I remember back in the day when they actually had filling and looked like they did in the ads. I haven’t had one in years now.

70% of the time, yes that’s normal.
But 30% of the time you’ll get a perfect, loaded, incredible crunchwrap. And once you have one, you’ll be chasing that high forever.
Disastrous-Zone-5335
Yup. That’s why they are the worst item.
Sea_Bottle5003
THAT IS NOT NORMAL. If that’s normal for anyone, please find a new Taco Bell!!!!
CheesyGorditaMaster
Definitely not normal…
Chippers4242
A little thin, but they’re never actually full. This is more normal than a stuffed one.
orchestralgenius
Unfortunately, yes. That’s partly why I only order them when they are part of the Taco Tuesday drops. I’d pay $1 for this, but not $5-ish.
popsmoek
if OP or anyone has a moes southwest grill near them i highly recommend stopping by and getting yourself a stack. it’s their version of the crunchwrap and it never disappoints!!
Acrobatic-Web9881
Mine was like that yesterday. Will not be getting a crunchwrap again
cconnorss
Honestly it all depends on location. My closest location does a good job about 70% of the time. We just got a couple last week that were some of the best Crunchwraps I’ve ever had! With the cheese it cracked in it. They absolutely packed it.
I miss the double Crunchwrap, because it was actually stuffed and one was enough.
TheSpanishKarmada
no most places i’ve gone to don’t make it this thin
originalGhosty
You have to tell them it’s your birthday…
ballwallz
Back in the day they used to actually look like the photo, filled with meat… this is more of the reality these days sadly :/ that’s why I never get them anymore.
Notmekid
I’ve noticed if I go through the drive thru my food will be skimpy as hell like this. But when I go in and say it’s for here not to go then it’s hooked up almost every time. Any fast food I go to now I go inside say it’s for here and then take it to go lol. Little fast food hack I guess
whackjob_med_student
There’s one in Cleveland that gives good portions, but the rest I’ve been to have been near empty like that one. The last time I ordered tbell, they forgot both of my crunchwraps, and then when I went back and showed them they gave me beef instead of black bean. Couldn’t eat em.
No-Significance387
They are so hit or miss. Occasionally I get one made right and it’s a 10/10. Usually i get them and they’re a 4/10.
Gamerbrozer
Not normal but also not surprising
themeltedmonkey
Sub beef to chicken Add creamy jalapeno
Best version of the Crunchwrap
MattMattavelli
Back in the days, they used to be the most filling single item on the menu. They were stuffed with beef.
Now they usually look like what you got. I just ordered one the other day, and unfortunately, it will be my last.
420xGoku
It’s the “new normal”, yeah
joopityjoop
This is normal smh. Which sucks because the crunchwrap can easily be the best item on the menu if they make it right.
If you’ve never made homemade crunchwraps before, I highly recommend it. Go to store and get some 12 inch flour tortillas, some canned nacho cheese (or make it yourself), buy some sour cream and mix it with a bit of water so the consistency is like TB’s sour cream. Sky’s the limit. They turn out STACKED and delicious.
twokidstwoangels
I just tried the new Cheez-it Crunch Wrap on Sunday, and it was huge. I subbed steak for ground beef and added refried beans, shredded cheese and extra sour cream. It was SO heavy. My Taco Bell is great most of the time. They have issues with running out of things and staffing, but they have some really nice people and they do the best they can.
gd2121
Bro that’s one sad crunchwrap
scallopedtatoes
It’s normal at my location. Sometimes it’s a little fuller, but it’s not a filling option. I can buy a few items off the value menu for the same price and be more full.
kog
Most overrated thing on the menu
logan_fish
100% Normal. Right on the button 🎯 And thats the way it is. This is their way……..
standdownplease
The last time I had a good crunchwrap was the time I was dumb high at Walmart and bought a $10 Crunchwrap kit.
SportsBall89
I don’t have that issue in WNY but god damn they did you wrong
optiplexus
Location matters! It’s all about who’s working the kitchen. You gotta find the “good Taco Bell” in your area and only go to that one.
MooseMullet
They messed me up on a couple of beefy5 at mine. Hoping it isn’t standard practice because for what you pay it’s a massive bummer to open the bag at home to find the things empty.
Dry-Committee-9867
It is nowadays.
Choice-Second-5587
Sadly it is now. When they first came out it was a whole ass pocket of food easily close to like a pound or half pound, either way it was heavy and filling. Now it just enrages me. I’ve stopped getting them despite loving them years ago.
SandraLynnS
I stopped ordering them altogether, even though they used to be my favorite. There’s just not enough filling, even when you pay extra for more meat. It’s better to modify the stacker.
Busy_Challenge1664
I get the blackbean one and its always pretty full
NewDrew-2
Not normal. Many employees are told to skimp on ingredients. There is no way that should be 5.50. They robbed you.
Ed-3-
Now = Yes Originally = No It use to have more meat
Sidrelly
Add rice or potatoes. I add both to my crunchwrap and I haven’t had a bad experience in years
BeautifulBoy92
Yeah, the cheese and sour cream will also be confined to different quadrants of the tortilla as well.
