The Bell Beefer was a hamburger bun based meal on Taco Bell's menu from the mid 1970s to the mid 1990s as an update to the Bellburger. Created to combat items offered at hamburger chains, the Bell Beefer was a bun with meat, diced onions, shredded lettuce and mild border sauce. A Bell Beefer Supreme was also offered which added diced tomatoes and grated cheese. More like a sloppy joe than a hamburger, it was well-liked early on and declined in popularity during the late 1980s.
