If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Mexican food pairs really well with hot sauce. If you agree, then you’ll be excited to hear that Taco Bell is teaming up with famous hot sauce company, Secret Aardvark, as they bring back their signature Nacho Fries. They aren’t just using any old hot sauce though. They’re spicing things up with a brand new sauce called Serrabanero Ranch. Sounds delicious but what’s in it? The new sauce mixes the heat of serrano and habanero peppers with the cool taste of ranch. So when will it be back? The Secret Aardvark Naco Fries will be back on the Taco Bell menu starting on April 25, 2024 at a price of $4.99. While it is a limited-time item, it will be around a little longer since Taco Bell plans to have them available all the way into Summer.
Taco Bell also has a special surprised planned in addition to the fries. On April 23, 2024, 300 lucky Taco Bell Fire! Tier Rewards Members will get a chance to win a “secret” prize on the Taco Bell app. Taco Bell seems pretty mum about the surprise only telling us that they’ll reveal the secret on the day itself.
In other news, Taco Bell is making an effort to help the environment by starting a recycling program. They partnered with TerraCycle for the Sauce Container US Recycling Program which lets customers recycle sauce packets and cups in exchange for earning Taco Bell Rewards points.
With the popular Nacho Fries making a comeback, it’s safe to say that Taco Bell is reaffirming its commitment to keep making new and exciting food so that we all would have something to look forward to.
The Rise of Taco Bell and the Secret Aardvark Union
Taco Bell is the go-to place for Mexican fast food. It’s rise to the top of the fast food industry all began with a World War II veteran who was passionate about Mexican-inspired cuisine. In 1946, Glen Bell started a small taco stand called Taco-Tia in San Bernardino, California. Bell’s unique take on the taco proved to be a complete hit with customers and became really popular. This success led to him opening the first ever Taco Bell restaurant in 1962 and the rest, as they say, is history.
On the other hand, Secret Aardvark was born from the innovative spirit of Scott Moritz. He was in Portland, Oregon when he dreamed to create a special hot sauce that could literally go with anything. With that dream in hand, he set out to create the distinct flavors of Secret Aardvark. And thus, their signature flavors that is best described as Carribean meets Tex-Mex was born. Secret Aardvark was a hit and became a cult favorite.
