Depending on your point of view, Taco Bell's latest creation is either culinary atrocity or genius deliciousness: It is the Cap'n Crunch Delight, which Today describes as "sweet little doughnut holes filled with creamy milk icing and enrobed in a delicious layer of Cap'n Crunch Berries cereal crumbs." The menu addition comes as something of an asterisk to Taco Bell having recently joined the trend of chain restaurants pledging to reduce or ban artificial ingredients from their menus. When it did so, the AP notes that Taco Bell exempted co-branded menu items like its Doritos Locos Tacos. The new dessert is out July 2. (More Cap'n Crunch stories.)
