## Story

Whether you think it’s a great idea or a horrible one, Taco Bell’s newest menu item has people talking. Taco Bell’s Cheetos Quesadilla will be available only at the chain's locations in the Philippines, according to a recent Mashable article.

This is not the first time we have seen Cheetos being used by a fast food chain to bring excitement to new limited time menu offering. This year Burger King introduced Cheetos Chicken Fries and Mac N’ Cheetos to increase buzz about the brand.

It’s also the second time that Taco Bell has decided to fuse together snack food with their own food, as they did with the Doritos Locos Taco. Canadians were exposed to Cheetos at Taco Bell earlier this year in the chain’s Crunchwrap.

As expected, the new menu item is a big hit on social media with many customers posting photos of the quesadilla on Twitter and Instagram.
