Life is better outside the bun, isn’t it Bros? Burgers are great, but nothing is better than a fast food taco in a crunch. But sometimes you need to spice things up a little bit from the plain jane flour or corn tortilla shells, which is exactly what Taco Bell has done. It’s call the Naked Crispy Chicken Taco and features “a breaded white-meat chicken shell that’s filled with lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese and an avocado ranch sauce.” Mmmmm…From an ingredient stand-point, chicken taco makes sense since Taco Bell is owned by Yum Brands, which owns KFC. They’re being sold individually for $2.49, or a $4.99 combo of a large drink. And the crispy chicken tacos are only available at Taco Bell restaurants around Bakersfield, California — a popular Taco Bell test market — for now. I have to imagine that something like this is poised for a national distribution in a few months.
Pretty sure this will be every college student’s favorite 2 AM munchie in a few months. Think how amazing it will be doused in Cholula. I must have it…
