Taco Bell’s newest menu “innovation” is made for dipping. Customers can soon get their first bites of the crispy chicken nuggets, available Dec. 19 at participating Taco Bell restaurants nationwide, according to the California-based fast food chain.

Mashed got an early chance to taste Taco Bell's new Crispy Chicken Nuggets for this exclusive review. It turns out that they're really clucking good.

"The Crispy Chicken Nuggets deliver a crispier, more flavorful nugget experience, and combined with the Hidden Valley Fire Ranch Sauce, we hope it will test people's devotion to their favorite nuggets," Montgomery added. The nuggets generated buzz when Taco Bell began testing them in Minneapolis last year and Houston in 2024.
