By state
The median at the restaurants read in each state, for the Cantina Chicken Bowl. Pick a state at the top of the board and every price on this site prints that state's figure.
What Taco Bell says it is
In the brand’s words: “Savory, slow-roasted chicken, seasoned rice, slow-simmered black beans, Avocado Ranch sauce, reduced-fat sour cream, lettuce, shredded purple cabbage, freshly prepared pico de gallo, guacamole made with Hass avocados, shredded cheddar cheese. Served with an Avocado Verde Salsa packet.”
The two calorie figures
Read the ordering menu and Cantina Chicken Bowl is 630 calories; read the nutrition menu and it is 580. The gap is not an error on either side: the listing prints the default build of the line, which is the Cantina Chicken Bowl with Avocado Verde Salsa Sauce Packet (50 cal), and the nutrition record is the Cantina Chicken Bowl by itself. Take the Avocado Verde Salsa Sauce Packet off the order and the listing figure and the record agree.
Every figure on this page that is not the listing (the panel, the daily values, the rankings, the ticket total) uses the nutrition record for the Cantina Chicken Bowl alone, and the ticket on this page prints both lines so the gap is visible rather than resolved.
Where it was listed

A state median stands on ten restaurants at most, so a single expensive or cheap restaurant moves it; the national range is the safer figure. Pick a state on the board or on the prices by state page and the ticket on every page prices its lines at that state’s medians beside the national range.

Allergens and certification
