Taco Bell has dropped potato items from its offerings, reportedly as part of an effort to simplify its menu. This includes Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes, Cheesy Potato Grillers and Spicy Potato Soft Tacos.

The decision resulted in a backlash on social media with one person tweeting, “If Taco Bell is really taking the potatoes off their menu entirely, 2020 will have actually been the worst year of my life.” A petition was also circulating to protest the change, reading, “Please sign if you have a heart. 2020 has been hard enough. I can’t handle this. Help.”

The menu change took effect Aug. 13.
