“Fresco Style” at Taco Bell

Has anyone tried the “Fresco Style” items at Taco Bell?
I have a nutrition guide. The guide says they replace the cheese with a mixture of Tomato onion and cilantro. 15 items are available this way.
Here are a few of the items values:
Taco: 150 calories/7 grams fat/3 grams fiber
Beef Soft Taco: 190 calories/8 grams fat/3 grams fiber
Chix Soft Taco: 170 calories /4 grams fat /2 grams fiber
Bean Burrito: 350 calories /8 grams fat /9 grams fiber
Chix Burrito Supreme: 350 calories /8 grams fat /6 grams fiber
Steak Burrito Supreme: 350 calories /9 grams fat /6 grams fiber
Chix Fiesta Burrito: 350 calories /9 grams fat /4 grams fiber
Tosada: 200 calories /6 grams fat /8 grams fiber

I would like to try the regular taco and the bean burrito this way. But I do not want to waste my money if it tastes better with the cheese. Did anyone try any of the Fresco style items and like it??

loralee i have tried them with the soft grilled steak tacos and it is wonderful. i too like cheese, but the fresco style cuts calories so dramatically that it is well worth it and they taste great. the fresco is actually what my hispanic husband calls "picco de gallo" and is a mixture of tomatoes, cilantro, onions, and peppers. we have used this as a staple at our dinner table for some time now and it is delicious. they are definately worth trying.
