I found Chili Cheese Burritos on the menuboard at a Taco Bell/KFC in Cerritos. 13313 Artesia (corner of Artesia and Carmenita) It's an older Taco Bell next to a Korean market, and it's kind of run down, but it has the Chili Cheese Burritos. I bought 2 for $3.49! Tastes just like I remember!

Taco Bell is the ultimate late night pit stop grease pit for all young clubhoppers. I like these guys as an alternative to burgers, and I believe they have some sort of "healthy" menu with lower fat content. I've tried several items on this special menu and the food tastes exactly the same, likely because the meat is so highly spiced and salty.
One more vote for the Bell. This place rocks.

I just had a chili cheese burrito today! The Taco Bell in Glendora CA on Route 66 still serves them, and it was just as good as I remembered! For some reason it isn't listed on their menu, but they cost $1.49 each and were worth every penny. I bought 4 extras to take home!

I had two chili -cheese burritos fron TB in Rolla, MO over St. Pats weekend 2009. As an act of protest, I still order them as chilitos. And the Peerless Park, MO TB still has them, or did as of about 3 months ago.

I hate how Taco Bell keeps getting rid of my favorite menu items. I used to adore the chilito, and it's gone (I can't get them here even if I ask), and yesterday I tried to get a cheesy beefy melt but nope, that's gone too.

I like the cheesy double beef with sauce as well, but folks mention that the beef/cheese/sauce ratio isn't as balanced as the Chilito.

Chili cheese burrito was my favorite at TB. Not a big fan of sour cream. It's hard to fing things with just meat and cheese at TB sometimes, seems all the burritos have either beans or sour cram or some type of cream sauce. A reg soft taco is ok, but I really liked the "chilito". Great after a night of drinking. Now, I might have to go to the local TB and ask for a chili cheese burrito and see what happens. Their employees do seem low on the fast food "heirachy" , maybe that can work to my advantage with a little mind persuasion, Jedi style. "You will make me a chili cheese burrito", Employee.." I will make you a chili cheese burrito"

The Chili-Cheese Wrap at Sonic is an excellent substitute for the Taco Bell item. Just say "no Fritos" if you don't want any.

The Taco Bell chilito was actually created after Zantigo closed and Taco Bell/KFC took over..the chilito at Zantigo..was so incredibly good. Different though in that it's not really red chili sauce like the TB version. Green chili I think but I've never been able to figure it out. We still have the TB chilito in Saint Paul *and* we now have a couple newer Zantigos. They serve chiltos hot or mild. I've seen people order boxes of them like a couple doxen at a time! I hope they're going to share!

I sometimes ate Zantigo chilitos three times a day in the summer when I was in high school.. thank goodness I was riding horses eight hours a day to wear them off!!! A friend and I would sometimes drive into Rochester, MN for lunch, again for a late afternoon snack and again for an evening snack. I still yearn for those darn things!! I hated Taco Bell for a long time(still do actually) after they bought out Zantigo's in Rochester, the Taco Bell rendition was not the same. I am glad Zantigo's is still around, haven't been back 'home' in ten+ years but next time I am in Minneapolis I know what my first meal will be. :O)

It's my hubbies favorite thing at Taco Bell. He has been talking about it forever, I, unfortunately, have never had the pleasure of trying them.. And I know he has been missing them dearly....Guess I have to do a 'build your own' at the local Taco Bell! :)))

I seriously can't believe they took it away again. When I saw that they were offering a chili cheese nacho I almost freaked. I went in and ordered the chili cheese burrito even though it was never a menu item. After only offering it for a few weeks, they have again taken it away. I'm so pissed I can't stand it. I almost went and bought 50 to freeze but I figured I would have more time with it. Now that they have taken it away again I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Lonely is the word. LOL Seriously I hope they bring it back. I'd pay $3 or more a burrito and not blink an eye.
-
Yep, I used to love those! They actually just recently brought them back in one of the Taco Bells in my area, but as great as that may seem, it sucks. They changed it completely. They pretty much put some beef, a couple of pieces of onion and a few clumps of shredded cheese wrapped in a tortilla, and they now call that the chili cheese burrito. I was so disappointed I about cried :(
-
YES! I miss them terribly. I wrote them some time ago (they slooowly disappeared in my area; I was only able to get them at a few, and then one, and then none over the course of about a year), and they said they have no plans to bring them back.
It seems like, with all the new stuff the seem to introduce monthly, they could bring back the chilito for a few months!On a side not, I also miss the green onions; they haven't been using them since the e-Coli incident or whatever it was earlier this year. Can't blame them and appreciate the corporate responsibility, but I do miss them on my nachos.

Our taco bell in Northeastern Ohio will always make a chili cheese burrito whenever we ask...and we always order it grilled.

re: chelleyd01
A lot of taco bells will do that. They'll remove things from the actual menu byt keep the recipes around in case they're specially ordered. I had a friend who would always order an enchirito, even though they were long removed from the menu, and tthey'd make them every time.
It's been a while since I've headed for the border, but the chili cheese burrito and the beef meximelt were far and above my favorite things there. those and the mexican pizza. Great 2 a.m. combo.

The Wichita stores have had the chili cheese burrito back for over a year, as well as the tostada, which disappeared for a while. However, most times the c-c burrito's never warm enough to even melt the cheese, which is gross (even for Taco Bell).
I do love the enchirito, even after they eliminated the decorative black olive slice. -

Great News!!! For fans of the Chili Cheese Burrito (Chilito) there is a way to make them! They have introduced the chili as a topping for nachos. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito but told them to hold the beans but add the chili instead.
THE CHILITO IS BACK!!!

I'd try this, except the mental capacity of some of the Taco Bell employees I've encountered is slightly below a bowl of soup. They have a hard enough time understanding a simple order, let along a complex procedure like substituting beans for chili.
I do miss the Chilito though.

re: SoPasFoodie
OMG I saw the commerical for the nachos this past weekend in Vegas. Stopping at TB in Barstow, I asked if it was the same stuff as in the... "chili cheese burritos?" the cashier replied, finishing my question. "Do you want a chili cheese burrito"? was her next question. Apparently people had been asking her all day.
IT WAS SO FREAKING GOOD!
