It's finally happening guys! After years and years of waiting the time has finally come.

The Beefy Crunch Burrito is FINALLY coming back to Taco Bell!

If you don't know, contrary to the opinion of the Mexican Pizza weirdos, the Beefy Crunch Burrito is the best menu item in the history of Taco Bell and it has the most loyal following of any fast food menu item in the world.

But the beloved burrito has been missing from the menu since 2018.

But now, after a fan vote, the delectable and glorious item is coming back, for a limited time.

Taco Bell confirms to TODAY.com that the Beefy Crunch Burrito is returning to its menu in early August — but only for a limited time.

Earlier this year, on March 30, Taco Bell held a fan vote to see which of two discontinued items — Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco and the Beefy Crunch Burrito — would be making a comeback, and the latter ultimately won the campaign.

Thanks to its cult-like following, the Beefy Crunch Burrito garnered 59.9% of votes, and will return to menus for a limited time this August.

Idk what sick, disgusting, losers were voting for a cool ranch Doritos Locos Taco over the unbeatable beefy crunch burrito, with the nacho cheese and the flamin' hot red frito strips, but I'm glad they lost out.

The original release of the item was way back in 2010, during my formative Taco Bell years, and only stuck around for one year. But apparently, I was not alone in my obsession with the item. It's come back a time or two since then, but now it has been five long, miserable years.

People even started The Beefy Crunch Movement, a fan club for the impeccable drive-thru Mexican treat.

"We knew the Beefy Crunch Movement, made up of more than 66,000 followers across various social media platforms was going to be tough to beat," a Taco Bell spokesperson tells TODAY.com. "Day in and day out this community rallied and reminded its members to vote daily for the return of their most-cherished menu item..."

To celebrate its latest win, the Beefy Crunch Movement recently posted on Facebook that member Devin Durbin pledged to get a Beefy Crunch Burrito tattoo if the menu item won. This makes Durbin the ninth person to get this particular Taco Bell-themed tattoo.

Here are a few of the Beefy Crunch tattoos the loyal fans have gotten.

You know, I'm not much of a tattoo fan myself, but I get it here. I totally understand it.

If you haven't had the Beefy Crunch Burrito then you really haven't lived.

It's the best thing a fast-food restaurant has ever made.

Beefy Movement! They've heard us loud and clear! Everyone needs to get to Taco Bell in August and get as much of this amazing food as they'll allow you to order.

Finally, some good news.
