Taco Bell Turns Heads With New Spin on Fan-Favorite Menu Items
There's nothing like the return of a fan-favorite menu item -- especially when said item is deep-fried and smothered with charred steak, blistering jalapeños, and layers of nacho cheese.
Indeed, in an exciting new development for Taco Bell's extensive menu, the global fast food giant has officially brought back some of their most popular past menu items.
More recently, Taco Bell has set the food industry ablaze with their Crispy Chicken nuggets: a mouthwatering take on a popular fast food menu item. In the hopes of further capitalizing on the Crispy Chicken's revived popularity, Taco Bell is also testing out new menu items centered around the decadent protein option, as revealed by noteworthy food journalist markie_devo in a recent Instagram post.
Above all else, Taco Bell is currently offering a slew of items with Crispy Chicken as its main ingredient, including a Crispy Chicken Burrito and Crispy Chicken Tacos.
The Burrito will come filled with a mixture of Crispy Chicken, lettuce, purple cabbage, pico de gallo and cheddar cheese, with the optional addition of either spicy Ranchero or Avocado Ranch sauce.
Meanwhile, Taco Bell's latest Taco creation is filled with Crispy Chicken, lettuce, purple cabbage, pico de gallo, shredded cheddar cheese and a choice of either of Ranchero or Avocado Ranch sauce as well.
Taco Bell is also currently testing out a new shareable platter dubbed the Loaded Steak and Jalapeños Topped Fries. Based on Taco Bell's ultra popular Nacho Fries from 2018, the dish comes served with a healthy smothering of molten nacho cheese, grilled steak, a creamy jalapeño sauce and enough pickled jalapeños to leave your tongue tingling for days after the fact.
While these experimental new items are available at limited locations within Charlotte, North Carolina, Taco Bell has reportedly planned to further emphasize Crispy Chicken on its menu well into 2026.
