Taco Bell Chicken Nuggets

If you've been an avid Taco Bell enjoyed like me, you'll know that there has been an increase in TB's offerings focusing on chicken via the La Cantina menu. It would appear that has been a winning formula for the company.

Now, Taco Bell is attempting to make a bold move into the chicken nugget industry, one that many people have fierce loyalties with (I, for one, love a good Wendy's nugget).

In a press release, Taco Bell describes the nuggets as being "entirely distinct, yet universally familiar". They are marinated in zesty jalapeño buttermilk flavor and breaded with a blend of breadcrumbs and crunchy tortilla chips. Certainly an intriguing combination.

It will also feature three different sauces including a new Hidden Valley Fire Ranch Sauce. So, where can you get these nuggets around Michigan, and how do these new nuggets hold compared to other nuggets?

Reviews and Locations

The good news about these nuggets is they will be available at virtually every location in Michigan. Early reviews from All Recipes and Business Insider say these nuggets are no cash-grab and may be the best out there.

Basically: run, don't walk, to your local Taco Bell when these launch in Michigan tomorrow, December 19th.
