Taco Bell revealed that its eagerly awaited Crispy Chicken Nuggets would make their debut on menus across the country on December 19, 2024. Along with the nuggets, the chain introduced three new dipping sauces over the past few weeks, featuring a first-time collaboration with Hidden Valley for their Fire Ranch Sauce. The other two options are Jalapeño Honey Mustard and Bell Sauce.
Since their release, fans have been raving about the new offerings on social media platforms like X (previously known as Twitter) and TikTok. We’ve compiled fan feedback and collected information on the new menu items at Taco Bell, helping you plan your visit efficiently.
In a statement provided to Food & Wine, Taylor Montgomery, Taco Bell’s chief marketing officer, revealed: “As the inventors of Nacho Fries, Taco Bell is fully aware that reinventing an American classic with a Taco Bell twist is a responsibility we don’t take lightly. But in a world dominated by chicken cravings, it was time to show the world how Taco Bell does chicken nuggets — unexpected and undeniably bold.”
Soon after trying the chain’s new Crispy Chicken Nuggets, one fan noted on X (formerly Twitter), that these items are “one of the absolute best nuggets ever made.” Another wrote that they “have 72 grams of protein and only 670 calories,” calling them an “insane deal.” Someone else commented: “Best thing on their menu tbh.” One other replied: “Just had them! Delicious and the pieces are way bigger than any other nugget out there. All three sauces were good, jalapeño honey mustard being the best.”
