Organic for Everyone: The Cheesy Gordita Crunch Edition
13: Welcome to our new segment "Organic for Everyone," where my producer and I break down the cost and ingredients of popular food chain menu items. Our goal is to then recreate them with organic food for cheaper! Or at the very least very close in price. We take you to well known grocery store chains and give you options to order things online if your local grocery store doesn’t carry the items.
Our first mission, the Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita Crunch.
