Taco Bell is ready to roll out its next trailer-style ad for the return of Nacho Fries.

As each installment takes on a new, specific movie genre, this year that decision is up to the fans. On January 18, Taco Bell announced via Twitter that the Nacho Fries trailer will look a bit different this year as it hands over creative control to the public. “We’re fry-ing to know what y’all will come up with,” the official Twitter account tweeted at the start of the thread, which called for genre ideas.  Soon after, Taco Bell tweeted that it had landed on a concept: a time loop story that has the main character stuck in the same day. Think the 1993 Bill Murray classic comedy Groundhog Day.

The campaign, the “Taco Bell’s Nacho Fries Challenge,” will have fans submit their original ideas for the next Taco Bell Nacho Fry commercial via Twitter with the hashtag #Frieschallenge. Up to 20 entries will be selected and the submissions will be reviewed by a panel of judges based on the criteria of creativity and relevance to the Taco Bell brand. This will be the first time the brand will have a fan-centered and fan-created spot for its beloved Nacho Fries.

KFC restaurants nationwide will add Beyond Meat’s plant-based chicken to its menus, starting Monday January 10th for a limited time.

The launch comes after years of testing from KFC and Beyond Meat to create a meat substitute that mimicked the taste and texture of whole muscle chicken, like chicken breast, rather than the ground-up consistency of nuggets.

The fan favorite Mexican Pizza will make a return to the menu in 2022. Back by popular demand, expect the pizza to appear in April or May.

Taco Bell will soon be adding chicken wings to the menu — for a single week in January.

The new Crispy Chicken Wings will be coated in “flavorful Mexican Queso seasoning” and paired with a side of spicy ranch dipping sauce. Each order also comes in a five-piece “on-the-go” box for $5.99. Taco Bell’s latest offering will be available beginning on Thursday, Jan. 6 at participating locations. Customers will be able to order the wings each day after 2 p.m. through the end of the week.

For a limited time, Taco Bell is offering fans a chance to score a $5 Chalupa Cravings Box as part of the new Cravings Value Menu. Each Chalupa Cravings Box includes a Chalupa Supreme, Burrito Supreme, Soft Taco and Cinnamon Twists served with a medium fountain drink. A Veggie version of the box is also available, it includes a Black Bean Chalupa Supreme, Veggie Burrito Supreme, Black Bean Soft Taco and Cinnamon Twists, plus a medium fountain drink for $5.
