The Seasoning Blend That Makes Taco Bell's Nacho Fries So Delicious - Tasting Table
Briefly

Taco Bell's nacho fries, introduced in 2018, offer a distinctive flavor profile distinguished by a spice blend that includes garlic, paprika, and aged cayenne pepper. Unlike traditional fast-food fries, their accompanying nacho cheese sauce enhances the experience, setting them apart from competitors like McDonald's. Though the fries were rumored to become a permanent fixture, they remain limited-time offerings. Available in two sizes, they have notable calorie counts—330 for regular and 470 for large. Taco Bell's nacho fries continue to attract attention with their flavorful seasoning and thicker cut compared to others.
According to Taco Bell's menu, it takes a handful of spices to flavor the fries: Garlic, paprika, sugar, onion, paprika extract, aged cayenne pepper, and other spices.
Since Taco Bell released its nacho fries in 2018, they've been on and off the menu. Last year, there were rumors that the fries would become a permanent menu item.
If that seasoning blend doesn't satisfy your spice levels, squirt one of Taco Bell's hot sauce packets into the nacho cheese for more heat.
The combination offers a very mild heat with more of a kick in flavor that sets it apart from many other fast-food fries.
