Review: Taco Bell Nacho Fries

I've been on this health kick lately (well - I'm trying to be healthy, anyway) and I feel like I still need cheat days outside of eating healthy.  I have some personal favorite junk foods that fill my cheat days, which range from Olive Garden, Asian food, Pizza (Lou Malnati's is a local favorite) and Taco Bell.

Taco Bell recently came out with their new Nacho Fries, so for my latest cheat day I had to try these along with my other Taco Bell favorites.


I had low expectations for these french fries.  I mean, it's a taco joint trying to get into the french fry business.  However, I'm telling you right now, I was totally wrong.

I'm going to tell you the real reasons why the Nacho Fries are delicious.  1.  The seasoning on the fries.  It tastes like a taco seasoning, which is why these fries feel like a compliment to the taco and not like it's completely separate from the taco offering.  2. The nacho cheese sauce.  Again I was hesitant about this, but the fries dipped in the nacho cheese sauce tasted glorious.

Cons of the Nacho Fries included: the workers didn't fill our fry box to the top (I think we got the leftover scraps of the latest Nacho Fry order) and they weren't fresh and hot.  Even with these cons, the fries were still awesome and a perfect compliment to the tacos.

I also got the $5 Nacho Fries box, which is a really good deal for what you get: it comes with a Cheesy Gordita Crunch, a Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco, Nacho Fries, and a Drink.  You pretty much get the Nacho Fries and the Drink for free.

Takeaways:
  • Just try the Nacho Fries from Taco Bell.  You have to.
