Taco Bell fans might see crispy chicken nuggets on the menu this December, accompanied by two unique sauces, Bell Sauce and Jalapeño Spicy Mustard. The rumored new items, previewed by a food blogger, promise a savory twist with exclusive dipping options that are generating early buzz.

Taco Bell Nuggets Win Fans Over in Testing, Rivaling McDonald’s with Bold Bell Sauce

Since its first storefront opened in Downey, California, in 1962, Taco Bell has introduced countless Tex-Mex-inspired favorites to the American fast-food scene. With over 8,000 locations worldwide, the chain continues innovating while serving classic menu items. According to a recent leak from food blogger @markie_devo on Instagram, Taco Bell’s latest rumored addition—a familiar but fan-requested item—could soon hit menus. The post suggests that crispy chicken nuggets, accompanied by two new sauces, the Bell Sauce and Jalapeño Spicy Mustard Sauce, will debut nationwide on December 19.

Taco Bell previously tested its crispy chicken nuggets in Minneapolis in 2023 and again in Houston earlier this year, where they garnered positive feedback from fans, with some even preferring them over McDonald’s McNuggets. The Bell Sauce, a savory and tangy blend with hints of chili peppers, combines tomatoes, red chiles, garlic, and onions.

Taco Bell’s Limited-Edition ‘Holy Trinity’ of Sauces Brings Bold Flavors for Nugget Fans

Meanwhile, the Jalapeño Spicy Mustard Sauce reportedly delivers a mixture of sweet honey, jalapeño heat, and tangy mustard. According to fan responses on Reddit, these dipping sauces received high praise, with some likening the Bell Sauce to the iconic Chick-fil-A sauce.

The leak mentions that in addition to the two new sauces, nacho cheese sauce might also be available as a dipping option, along with a side of fries. Fans have even dubbed this lineup the new “Holy Trinity” of Taco Bell sauces. However, as with many limited-time offerings, it’s uncertain whether these nuggets and sauces will join the permanent menu or return periodically like the popular Nacho Fries.

The crispy chicken nuggets and accompanying sauces will be available for a limited time, leaving fans hopeful for their future return. For now, Taco Bell enthusiasts can look forward to December, when these new menu items are rumored to debut.
