Taco Bell is back to its here-today-gone-tomorrow tricks with Nacho Fries returning to the menu for now. And this time they are adding a spicy twist by pairing the Loaded Nacho Fries with TRUFF hot sauce. Here is what those come with:
Golden, crispy Nacho Fries covered in TRUFF sauce, marinated, grilled steak, nacho cheese sauce, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and reduced-fat sour cream.
They are also offering the Loaded TRUFF Fries Burrito which is the same ingredients as above wrapped in a flour tortilla.
For those not familiar with TRUFF, it is a gourmet hot sauce that includes “ripe chili peppers, organic agave nectar, black truffle oil, and savory spices”. I have to admit that I am on the fence on this one, though, because there are few things in the world I don’t like but truffles are on the list. I know they are supposed to be fancy and high-falutin’ and all, but I’ve never met a truffle that I liked. If you do like that particular fungus and/or you are familiar with the TRUFF sauce, these may be the Nacho Fries for you.
Regular Nacho Fries are back as well, so if you don’t want all that fancy stuff on your seasoned and fried spuds, just plunk down the money for those instead. Whether they will stick around long enough to pair them with the return of the Enchirito remains to be seen. The Bell is emphasizing that this is limited-time-only, so get them while you can. I’m guessing they will only be back for about a month or so because Taco Bell usually does a big push for Nacho Fries around the Super Bowl which will be in early February.
