Chick-fil-A's Gooey New Cheese Sauce is a Fast Food Hit
Katherine Pendrill — March 3, 2019 — Lifestyle
It seems that Chick-fil-A's special sauce may finally have met its match with the debut of the chain's gooey new cheese sauce.
Chick-fil-A's tasty new cheese sauce is currently available at 436 locations in the Midwest and Northeast. The sauce is made from a creamy blend of parmesan and Swiss cheeses for an ultra-cheesy dip. As some fans have described it, the sauce tastes a lot like queso without any spice, making it a great pairing for fries or chicken tenders. In fact, the new cheese sauce has received so much love from fans, it looks to be overtaking the chain's special sauce in popularity.
As Chick-fil-A's new cheese sauce demonstrates, brands can still find innovative ways to top even their most iconic offerings.
