Fast food chains consistently making a popular item available for a limited time only to whip up more adulation upon its inevitable return isn\u2019t new, but what is new for the latest go-round of Taco Bell\u2019s Nacho Fries is what you can now dip these perennial pleasers into…Vegan Nacho Sauce! This limited time offering launched on October 12th, but writing this just a few weeks later, I can confirm they weren\u2019t kidding about the \u201climited\u201d part. Many locations have already stopped selling Vegan Nacho Sauce, and I struck out at multiple places before locating the dang thing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
When I finally discovered some, the plant-based-elephant in the room was its viscosity, which could be best described as \u201csludgy.\u201d My traditional idea of nacho sauce is on the liquid-y side, while this looked more like unnaturally dark orange plastic in a cup. When I glommed a big blob onto the end of a fry and held it out to take a picture, it even stayed in place the whole time, which felt somewhat freakish. I guess it\u2019s a good thing that no one could look at this vegan variant and accidentally mistake it for the dairy-based original?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
After my picture was taken, my first bite was taken too, and it was a bit confusing. Why was I getting spiciness? And was that a hint of Old Bay? I replicated my experiment repeatedly, and \u2014 oh, yep, okay, it became clear that all that overpowering zest was coming exclusively from the Nacho Fries.<\/p>\n
That was a bit disappointing. Isn\u2019t the whole point of dipping sauce to liven up the taste of something that\u2019s too plain on its own not to fade into the background itself? Lapping up a solo gob of sauce brought a faintly funky flavor, slightly and pleasantly earthy, but decidedly not bad. People who brag about being vegans can have a bad reputation, and often, so does vegan food itself; I Googled \u201cvegan cheese tastes like,\u201d and the first word that auto-filled was \u201cvomit,\u201d but while Taco Bell\u2019s newest offering kind of looks like that, it certainly doesn\u2019t taste like it. Its flavor was mild, with a creaminess despite the rubbery looks and a comforting warmth, not as strident or synthetic as I\u2019d feared. Just as it doesn\u2019t look especially like dairy cheese sauce, though, it doesn\u2019t taste much like it either.<\/p>\n

This is the part of the review where I\u2019d usually tell you whether to buy this product or not, but unfortunately, if you\u2019re in an area where it\u2019s no longer being sold, that choice might have already been made for you. So what I\u2019ll say instead is that I think it\u2019d be worth it for Taco Bell to give the Vegan Nacho Sauce another more permanent chance. I might not personally be rushing to buy it again, but I\u2019m sure plenty of people who are more into vegan dining would. So come on, Taco Bell, learn from McDonald\u2019s. If the McRib can go on a whole farewell tour before popping right back onto the market, Vegan Nacho Sauce can too!<\/p>\n
