TACO Bell has brought back a fan-favorite snack — but this time, there’s a spicy twist.
Later this month, fans will once again be able to get their hands on the item that has been removed and put back on the fast food giant’s menu 11 times.
That would, of course, be none other than Nacho Fries, for one Press release from Taco Bell on Thursday.
The brand called the return of Nacho Fries “triumphant” and “groundbreaking,” noting that it will be available for a significantly longer time than customers are used to seeing in the past.
With the return comes a unique twist on the popular snack, as Taco Bell highlighted its partnership with sauce pioneer Secret Aardvark.
The Portland, Oregon-based brand helped Taco Bell give Nacho Fries a spicy twist by creating Secret Aardvark Nacho Fries.
With the partnership, the brands added a new sauce called Serrabanero Ranch to Nacho Fries.
Features a ranch base with green habanero peppers, tomatoes and roasted serrano tomatillos.
“The sauce adds a bold touch of spice to classic Nacho Fries,” Taco Bell wrote in the release.
Secret Aardvark Nacho Fries come in a bowl “seasoned with bold Mexican seasonings and topped with premium, flavorful slow-roasted chicken, a three-cheese blend, low-fat sour cream, nacho cheese sauce and pico of chicken”.
Instead of eating Nacho Fries alone with sauce, the Secret Aardvark variation allows for a complex dish packed with flavor.
The arrival of the Nacho Fries variation was highly anticipated after being announced on Live Mas Live in early 2024.
It’s been dubbed a “new era of flavor with an innovative blend of heat and zest.”
Liz Matthews, global director of food innovations at Taco Bell, praised Secret Aardvark for its assistance in the new approach to Nacho Fries.
“We’re thrilled to bring back fan-favorite Nacho Fries for its 11th return, in an all-new way, with an extra-tasty partnership with Secret Aardvark,” Matthews said in a statement.
“Secret Aardvark’s dedication to bold flavors and culinary innovation makes them the perfect partner for Taco Bell and our Nacho Fries.”
“Together, we are taking flavor exploration to new heights, ensuring our fans experience the ultimate taste sensation in every bite,” she added.
