does anyone know what goes into Taco Bell"s refried beans to make them taste the way they do? I've searched the internet exhaustively and found many TAco Bell copycat recipes but none for their beans. Please respond.

I was looking for the same info. I worked at a Taco Bell as a teenager. Back then it was pinto beans, salt, lard and water all pressure-cooked together. I don't remember the measurements, though. I also know they replaced the lard 20+ years go with some sort of vegetable oil.

Carla and Valerie, I actually think that I have a copycat recipe for Taco Bell refried beans. I haven't used it in a long time because of my husband's health issues. But I will try and dig it up, as I never throw away recipes. ;-)

when I worked there 8 years ago they were just dried beans to which we added water and then they turned into a goo paste. I am in Canada and I am not sure if it is the same in the states.

I just left my job at Taco Bell, last month after being there for 6 years. The beans are now a dehydrated form that you add 190 degree water too, and stir until it becomes a paste. The ingredients are not listed on the packaging, it is one of the few items that does not list the ingredients. But a month before I left the did change the type of beans that they were using and the taste of them changed all together though!

As far as the rice goes, 4 Quarts of 190 water 4 ounces of oil, mexican rice seasoning, stir it up until the seasoning is well mixed, add 4 cups of rice and stir!

Cheesy beefy melt is beef 3 cheese and sour cream.
