Taco Bell Has Already Sold 53 Million Orders of Nacho Fries | Eater
"Launched January 25, the chain’s Nacho Fries have become its most successful new menu item, selling 53 million orders and appearing in roughly one out of every three transactions; they’re sold for $1 or $0.49 as an add-on. The item consists of fries coated in a “bold Mexican seasoning” and served with a side of nacho cheese for dipping. Originally intended as a limited-edition dollar-menu offering, overwhelming popularity has kept them on the menu at least through April. Despite the commercial success, some critics are unimpressed: Eater NY’s Robert Sietsema called the sauce “more chemical than culinary” with little discernible taste and described the fries as fairly crisp outside but with an interior “more like instant mashed potatoes.”" - Whitney Filloon
