To celebrate the liberation of the decades-long trademark “Taco Tuesday” and spotlight the restaurants that now have the right to freely use the slogan, Taco Bell announced it will offer fans free tacos on Tuesday, Sept. 12.
The twist? The free tacos don’t need to be ordered at Taco Bell.
According to the Mexican fast-food giant, Taco Bell, in partnership with DoorDash, is opening a $5 million taco tab to cover a portion of taco fans’ orders from any participating restaurant selling Mexican cuisine.
“Because now that Taco Tuesday is free – your tacos should be, too,” Taco Bell said in a statement on Tuesday.
Leading up to the celebration, the Irvine, California-based company said its locations will also be offering a free Doritos Locos Taco every Tuesday (8/15, 8/22, 8/29, 9/5).
