Taco Bueno Debuts A New And Improved Queso For Five Cents On Cinco De Mayo Weekend With Proceeds Benefitting Local Food Banks!
DALLAS, April 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Five cents has never gone so far, when Taco Bueno restaurants turn this year's Cinco de Mayo celebration into Cinco de Bueno. On Saturday, May 4, and Sunday, May 5, participating Taco Bueno restaurants will debut an improved, bolder queso for only five cents a serving with the proceeds going to several local food banks. And the richer, tastier queso isn't all that will be bueno on that date. Taco Bueno will match all sales from the new queso offer for the participating eight food banks, making the day even "More Bueno." No additional purchase is required.
"Taco Bueno's new, improved queso is the best way to spice up your Cinco de Mayo," said Ramon Torres, SVP of Operations. "It's now made with two kinds of cheese, Cheddar and Pepper Jack, blended with jalapenos and red peppers for a rich, creamy taste, with a kick."
For only five cents, guests receive a 2.0-ounce serving of the new queso with tortilla chips cooked fresh in stores. The offer is available at all of Taco Bueno's locations in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Louisiana, and Missouri. In Arkansas, Taco Bueno restaurants in Bentonville, Fayetteville, Ft. Smith, Rogers and Springdale will be participating. (Find the most "bueno" location at www.tacobueno.com.)
