The fast-food chain has added one more item to its menu this year after a year of rapid innovation. The Taco Bell test kitchen is busy.
Most fast-food businesses alter their menus and add a few LTOs each year, but Taco Bell does so every few weeks.
Reintroducing old favorites with a twist is one of the chain's menu novelties. Yum Brands (YUM) sells Grilled Cheese Nacho Fries in several varieties.
This is a twist on Nacho Fries, seasoned fries with nacho cheese dip. The updated version has ground beef, another cheese blend, and chipotle sauce.
Taco Bell has several new things, yet they're familiar enough to sell to fans. The chain's Breakfast Tacos may be the best example from 2023.
An ad featuring Pete Davidson promoted the chain's morning tacos as something it should have always offered. This was part of Taco Bell's aim to make its breakfast menu more accessible.
In addition to food, Taco Bell has pioneered unusual drinks. This includes special Mountain Dew, Brisk Iced Tea, and low-calorie Gatorade varieties.
Slush-style drinks are also available in the chain's extensive beverage range. The company surprised customers by adding a "Freeze," frozen slush to its menu before the holidays.
