People really were craving chalupas.
A recent promotion by Taco Bell experienced some hiccups when the app needed to redeem the offer crashed. Seemingly frustrated taco lovers took to social media to vent their complaints.
The fast-food chain recently announced a new promotion where it would give away free Chalupa Cravings Boxes, USA Today reported. The boxes contain a chalupa (obviously), a five-layer burrito, a taco, cinnamon twists and a drink.

In order to receive the free item, customers had to download the Taco Bell app and order the box for pick-up at a participating location’s drive-thru. The offer expired Tuesday.
Unfortunately, some users appeared to have difficulty accessing the app and missed out on the opportunity to appease their cravings for free.
