[quote][t]http://static4.businessinsider.com/image/58754f58ee14b617038b7949-911/undefined[/t]Taco Bell is debuting a Chalupa that replaces a typical taco shell with fried chicken.
The[URL="http://www.businessinsider.com/taco-bell-plans-launch-of-fried-chicken-taco-2016-8"] long-awaited[/URL] "Naked Chicken Chalupa" will be available at all Taco Bell locations across the US beginning January 26, the Mexican fast-food chain announced on Wednesday.
The new menu item's fried-chicken shell is made with white-meat chicken, which is filled with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheddar cheese, and avocado ranch sauce. The Naked Chicken Chalupa will cost $2.99.
Taco Bell began testing variations on the fried chicken chalupa in 2015 with tests in Bakersfield, California and Kansas City, Missouri.
"We were getting feedback like, 'It's so healthy. It's so fresh,'" Kat Garcia, Taco Bell's senior manager of marketing, [URL="http://www.businessinsider.com/taco-bell-copies-kfc-fried-chicken-mistake-2016-5"]told BuzzFeed News last May.[/URL] "That really surprised us because it's fried chicken."
According to early reviews, the chalupa is tasty as well.[/quote]

Hmm Chic 'N' Weed...
Absolutely amazing
Truly the pinnacle of human invention.
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should...
My children will remember this day.

Taco Bell is a menace to society but it should never be stopped
I'll buy one the day it comes out.
That actually looks pretty good, I was expecting something similar to the Double Down but since there's no added meat filling it's probably not that greasy.
If they can always get it hot and fresh and not old and cold, this will be amazing.

oh hot damn the KFC Double Down is a fucking legendary piece of food art my friend
For some reason it just occurred to me that this thing won't have any meat [I]inside[/I] it. Not entirely sure I want to eat a salad with cheese wrapped in chicken.

Taco Bell is the reason why I keep going. Bless them. Bless them and their beautiful crimes against nature.

I hope so, the Double Down was actually delicious.
Holy fucking shit, I am so going to eat a fuck ton of those. Now that's a promotional taco. Much better than that crappy Cheese Chalupa thing.
Healthy by Taco Bell standards I guess, thing's only been fried once and only has one type of meat.

I live in an town that has a bunch of dispensaries and a University and somehow the closest taco bell is 100km away.
taco bell pls come to denmark
Im getting heart palpitations just from looking at the thing.
I've never understood the appeal of using a fried chicken patty as bread/a tortilla. And I probably am in the minority, but it looks unappetizing and like a greasy mess waiting to happen. More power to the people who find it appealing, but I pass.
