Toasted Cheddar Street Chalupas debuted last year<\/a>, I wrote that \u201cif it ever comes back, I\u2019m sure I won\u2019t be sticking it and its bread-y flavor in my mouth again.\u201d So I didn\u2019t give them a try and stuck with the fries. Hey! That rhymes!<\/p>\nA quick search of this site confirms that chicken, bacon, and ranch are a common fast food combo, and the Nacho Fries are an excellent vessel for highlighting them, providing a slightly crispy, seasoned bed for those toppings to rest on. I was skeptical that the nacho cheese sauce could be paired with the avocado ranch, since one might cancel out the other. But the orange goop added a cheesier layer that complemented the creamy, slightly tangy avocado ranch rather than competing with it.<\/p>\n

The biggest letdown was the chicken, but mainly because my order didn\u2019t seem to have much of it. It looked less like a star of the menu item and more like it had been accidentally included in my order on its way to being added to another order. At least, there were enough bacon crumbles to make up for it. The pico de gallo was a welcome addition, bringing bright, acidic bursts with each forkful, and doing a nice job of cutting through the richness of the sauces.<\/p>\n
Overall, Taco Bell\u2019s Chicken Bacon Ranch Nacho Fries are as good as many of the previous loaded Nacho Fries iterations. There\u2019s a lot of flavor, and the fries are a great carrier for all the sauces and toppings. But at the same time, there\u2019s nothing about it that makes it a must-order, and if you happen to miss this limited-time offering, there\u2019s no need to feel any amount of FOMO.<\/p>\n
Besides, Gidget will have something new for us soon enough.<\/p>\n
