[Taco Bell](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diamonds-made-from-taco-shells) and [Uber Eats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-twists-cereal) are the unlikely creators of crystal necklaces designed to help people get through Mercury Retrograde. This occurs when the planet of communication appears to be moving in a backward direction from west to east and those who practice astrology are wary of potential problems, chaos and miscommunications that this time brings.

Taco Bell and Uber Eats teamed up with Spencer Pratt to create nacho-shaped amethyst necklaces to combat "bad vibes" and promote clarity. For a limited time in October, Mercury RetroGrande Nachos can be received for free with a $12 minimum Taco Bell order via Uber Eats. Fans can also enter to win the amethyst crystal necklace and thousands of winners will be selected to receive a Nacho Crystal of their very own.
