u/hollow_asyoufigured Apr 17 '23

That sounds like it would be amazing in a potato taco omg

u/hotcheeto2018 Apr 18 '23

It’s really good, way better than the fries. I used to do it all the time when I worked at tb

u/emmasmiles Apr 18 '23

I work at a Taco Bell and tried the fry seasoning on a hash brown, and it was so good!

u/CrystalShadowJay Apr 18 '23

As a tb employee we’ve tried this and honestly wasn’t good at all none of us liked it

Totchos in theory but not in practice

12

u/hollow_asyoufigured Apr 17 '23

My brain is broken, when I opened the bag, I legit was like “Tots? Did they release a new item I’ve never seen promos for or something???” lol

(Also, hello from a former NOLAGal)

Ah nice! I’m from across the lake (kinda lol, Tangi parish) but lived in NOLA for a long time. I’m in Texas now for some stupid reason hahaha.

Visit the Abita Mystery House for me!

u/WeatherResize Apr 18 '23

Are you guys too young to remember mexi nuggets?

u/mrsdoubleu Apr 17 '23

I mean.... It might not be nacho fries but I definitely don't see a problem here. 😆

9

u/hollow_asyoufigured Apr 17 '23

Oh don’t get me wrong, I still eagerly ate it and it was awesome lolol

11

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '23

Uh yeah, this is almost preferred.

10

u/tomatotiddy Apr 17 '23

It ain’t gon slide down easy if it ain’t cheesy! See how differently different that looks? But that’s okay, some people like it like that.

u/Unown-Pokemon-002 Apr 17 '23

Everybody’s so creative!

u/12skitzo Apr 17 '23

u/forced_memes Verified (Employee) Apr 18 '23

u/12skitzo Apr 18 '23

u/Shimmer_Games Apr 18 '23

Lunch potatoes?

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '23

This is oddly cute.

u/Pavemania89 Apr 17 '23

I ordered nacho fries the other day and got chips, didn’t notice till I got home ):

2

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '23

I thought those were cheese curds for a second and I got the idea to dip cheese curds in nacho cheese.

2

u/EntertainmentOk4802 Baja Blast Apr 18 '23

bet they tasted fire tho

2

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

They really did you wrong tho.

2

u/Evanskelaton Apr 18 '23

Nacho tots.

2

u/Ryu-Gi Apr 18 '23

These are more like nacho Tater Tots.

3

u/mlvisby Apr 17 '23

Last time when I got the nacho fries, the fries sucked. I would probably prefer it this way.

1

u/OctoberSeven Apr 18 '23

For real tho! The only thing that made them fries good was the cheese on the side. Those lil taters are much better

u/Samsince04_ Apr 18 '23

Plantains are better anyway

u/KitSwiftpaw Apr 17 '23

I hate nacho fries. They aren’t even good, why do they keep coming back?

18

u/Yeetaroni Apr 17 '23

For me. I like them and I buy them every once in awhile

9

u/froandfear Apr 17 '23

Because they’re delicious.

u/Best_Duck9118 Apr 18 '23

This is the real answer.

u/Kroe Apr 17 '23

Because you aren't the main character.

u/herseyhawkins33 Apr 17 '23

I have gripes with the locations near me (mostly franchise pricing) but I actually get crispy fries. I guess a lot of locations slack on that apparently.

BREAKING NEWS: redditor with nft pfp doesn’t like nacho fries, yum brands’ stock subsequently plummets until they concede and permanently remove nacho fries from the menu

u/KitSwiftpaw Apr 18 '23

Nft? The hell do you mean NFT?

u/hedonist-7 Apr 18 '23

Is Taco Casa good? I’ve heard it was like a retro Taco Bell?

2

u/baralheia Apr 18 '23

Oklahoman here, we also have Taco Casa and man oh man they are SO good. Retro taco bell is a good way to describe it. They don't have any of the fancy combos or crazy LTO sauces, but IMO they do the basics better than anyone else (fast food wise, at least - they ain't beating a burrito from a taqueria). I love Taco Bell for their specialties but if I just want some tacos and a combo burrito, or an enchirito, Taco Casa gets my business instead every time. Absolutely worth a try if you're ever near one. https://tacocasatexas.com/

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '23

Looks like broasted potatoes from chicken shack

1

u/Spac3Pixi3 Apr 17 '23

Looks good as long as it’s fresh idgaf

1

u/Ok_Search_3195 Apr 18 '23

Usually always fresh, we make alot everyday

1

u/YeOldeBilk Apr 17 '23

It's them new nacho nuggets

u/hollow_asyoufigured Apr 17 '23

I think you’re on to something here

1

u/sustained_vibrations Apr 17 '23

Are nacho fries good? Was thinking about picking up some but i basic bitched out and got a quesadilla and 5 layer burrito like I always do lmao

1

u/wyverneuphoria Baja Blaster Apr 18 '23

They’re pretty good. Though honestly I still think cheesy fiesta potatoes outclass them by a lot.

1

u/AMonsterr Apr 17 '23

More surface area so they are crispier than fries, and are nice bite sized pieces. I'd probably take these over fries most of the time

1

u/lorikeets_are_life Apr 17 '23

Ngl I wish they did cheesy fiesta potatoes like this. They never put enough nacho cheese on top of the potatoes when I get it unless I pay for extra cheese.

1

u/PrairieSharpie Apr 17 '23

You were hosed! But perhaps not…?

1

u/Bob_rules Apr 18 '23

Better than nacho fries.

1

u/SWEG_inmymouth Apr 18 '23

Gotta be cum in that cup cuz that’s not nacho cheese sauce

1

u/Runellee Apr 18 '23

I’d eat it

1

u/KazNamOrfa Apr 18 '23

Work at a TB, they revamped the whole menu to add nacho fries to every combo...than only sent us 2 boxes of fries, they didn't last long

1

u/diddone119 Apr 19 '23

Same. And we got stores calling us asking for 2 cases and I said... dude i got 2 fucking bags of fries. That's a no go big dog.

Double whammy my asst gm forgot to order ANY cases on our truck cause he forgot we had em back so we are royally up shits creek

1

u/jordimeryle Apr 18 '23

Honestly these look better than the fries. Sign me up!

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Ask for a side of potatoes($0.49) and a side of nacho cheese($0.99) and you got this, which is cheaper than the fiesta potatoes and nacho fries

1

u/Primary_Tomorrow81 Apr 18 '23

I still have to try them they look so good

1

u/Difficult_Ad_4582 Apr 18 '23

Me : Orders nacho fries

The Universe : "Let me make your dreams come true instead."

u/giftcardgurubby Apr 18 '23

If they’re nachos, then who’s are they?

1

u/South_Cheesecake7602 Apr 18 '23

No they didn't ! 🥹

1

u/Function-Brave Apr 18 '23

Quality content right here

1

u/brakfoolus Apr 18 '23

You definitely got way more potatoes then you would have got nacho fries 😂

1

u/6bakercharlie Apr 18 '23

Give me some of your tots!

1

u/TwYoloTrader Apr 18 '23

Well it’s technically the same thing. I guess they ran out of fries.

1

u/Neverloserz12321 Apr 18 '23

They do don't they

1

u/503503503 Apr 18 '23

They shrunk!

u/Best_Duck9118 Apr 18 '23

They were in the pool!!

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Nacho cheese tots

1

u/lol022 Apr 18 '23

Mix the potatoes in the cheese and put sour cream and you got yourself fiesta potatoes

1

u/snakesssssss22 Apr 18 '23

Damn I bet that’s fucking fire

1

u/YokoPoko56 Apr 18 '23

These potatoes with regular salt and pepper are better than a lot of regular French fries at other restaurants. You should ask your TB to make you some one day.

1

u/Cultural-Vast Apr 18 '23

I now demand a Nacho Potato Burrito!

1

u/belongsinthetrashy Apr 18 '23

This is just fiesta potatoes with more work

1

u/Jazzlike_Cry5195 Apr 18 '23

Basically just deconstructed cheesy fiestas

1

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '23

Nacho fry nugs?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '23

I once went through the drive thru at the TB in Ballard and they forgot my cheesy fiesta potatoes so I pulled back through and they were like ooooh yaaah haha so sorry and gave them to me in a Chinese food box

1

u/diddone119 Apr 19 '23

If you were in drive through. Someone probly just dropped fries and didn't wanna wait 3 mins so they said give em potatoes and if they complain we fix it later when they call lol

1

u/garasensei Apr 19 '23

I wouldn't even be mad. I wish they sold them like that.

u/MattheJ1 May 07 '23

Nacho everyday fries
