I didn’t realize that Taco Bell starting selling chicken wings. Probably because they are only available at stores that are not connected to a KFC, for obvious reasons, and they aren’t listed on their menu online. They are onlt listed on the menu on the app, which I don’t use. But my husband found out about them and picked up a few boxes for us to try.
Surprisingly, the wings were quite tasty. As noted in the name, they are crispy. Very crispy. I eat a lot of chicken wings and I am not used to wings THAT crispy. But I think it made them more delicious. The weird thing is that they are covered in some sort of dust. It tasted a bit like the dust on the nacho cheese flavored Doritos. Supposedly it’s a zesty queso seasoning but I don’t believe it. They totally crushed up some Nacho Cheese Doritos Loco taco shells and used that to fry them. You can’t convince me otherwise.
While the wings are tasty, they are a limited edition item. From what I hear, they are only around until January 12. If you can get your hands on some before they disappear, do it!
