Taco Bell just released one of the most ridiculous fast-food menu items ever
Taco Bell is making taco shells out of fried chicken.
The new naked crispy chicken taco features a breaded chicken shell filled with lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, and an avocado ranch sauce, Foodbeast reports.
At least one location in California is selling the taco for $2.49. We reached out to Taco Bell for more information on the new item, which looks pretty unappetizing in photos we've seen.

The new creation looks a lot like KFC's double down dog, which featured a hot dog wrapped in a cheese-stuffed chicken breast.
But bizarre items like the naked crispy chicken taco and the double down dog seem like more of a marketing ploy than a genuine product test.
These items are sure to get a lot of attention on social media, which is what fast-food chains are fighting for in an increasingly competitive environment that has grown even more crowded with the expansion of fast-casual chains such as Chipotle and Panera.
