Total Sugars
One order of Cinnamon Twists includes 10 grams of sugars, all of which are added sugars.
SUMMARY OF SUGARS PER SERVING
Added sugars are added to a recipe (or to sweeten a finished dish) rather than occurring naturally in raw foods such as milk, fruits, and vegetables.
The FDA recommends limiting calories from added sugars to no more than 10% of total calories per day.
With that in mind, take note that a single order of Cinnamon Twists deliver 20% of the daily limit of added sugars (based on a 2,000 calorie diet). That is high.
Taco Bell Cinnamon Twists are certified vegetarian by the American Vegetarian Association.

Cinnamon Twists Ingredients and Allergens
Ingredients
Including the canola oil used to cook the dough, this treat contains ten ingredients. Here are the ingredients for the dough and the cinnamon and sugar coating.
What is Dextrin?
Dextrins are natural carbohydrates in potatoes, corn, rice, and other vegetables and grains. The additive is often used in the production of food as a thickening and preserving agent.
This partially hydrolyzed starch* helps to keep ingredients combined. In that regard, it can be thought of as a binding product.
Food producers often use dextrin to enhance the crispness of fried foods. It’s also used as a fat replacer and to impart a glossiness in glazes.
*Note: A partially hydrolyzed starch means it is balanced between being a soluble glucose and an insoluble starch.
Other fast food menu items and packaged foods that contain dextrin include:
Allergens
There are only ten ingredients in the Cinnamon Twists at Taco Bell. One ingredient in that list is wheat flour. This food item contains gluten.
