It may be hard to keep track of what day it is while being cooped up at home, but this Tuesday is  one you’ll want to remember: Taco Tuesday.

On March 31, Taco Bell will hand out one free beef taco per customer through the drive-thru. You don’t have to purchase anything else.

Customers will receive the Nacho Cheese-flavored Doritos Locos Tacos (no substitutions, by the way). We might as well think of it as a reward for successful social distancing.

In addition to hoping to give away at least one million tacos this Tuesday, the Taco Bell Foundation is donating $1 million to No Kid Hungry, a national campaign to end childhood hunger in America. When guests visit their Taco Bell drive-thru, participating locations will soon have the option to 'round up' their order total to the nearest dollar and all funds raised will go to No Kid Hungry.
