KFC Testing Taco Bell-Inspired Crispy Chicken Tacos
With Burger King recently launching its own taco, and Jack-In-The-Box having one on menu for years, it seems like it doesn’t matter what kind of fast food chain you are, the taco is inevitable.
Now KFC is getting in the mix with a new “Double Taco.” Well, at least KFC in France.

The Double Taco looks a lot like a Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita Crunch, using both a hard shell and soft shell tortilla, but separated by a layer of salsa. The inside layer has a meaty chicken strip, covered with cheese, tomatoes, onion, and a guacamole sauce.
The idea of a taco isn’t completely random, as joint KFC/Taco Bell restaurants have been sprinkled around the US, seeing how both are owned by parent company Yum! Brands.
Also, an iteration of this existed in KFC South Korea with their Zinger Double Taco, which is the same as the French version, with a few topping tweaks.

France isn’t stopping with the taco, though, as they’ve also launched Crispy Tender Hot Dogs, which sound as good as the tacos.
The hot dogs have a crispy chicken strip, covered in American cheese, jalapenos, hot sauce and mustard.

The French versions of these items will only be around for a limited time, and per usual, we can only hope it makes its way to the US. Yum! Brands has the means. Just make it happen already.
