Hot Sauce-Branded Menu Expansions

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Del Taco's Updated Menu Offerings Spotlight Cholula Hot Sauce

— October 9, 2020 — Lifestyle
American fast food restaurant chain Del Taco has announced a series of new menu additions in time for the fall that incorporate Cholula Hot Sauce. The updated menu includes crispy chicken tacos, burritos, breakfast rolls, and topping-heavy fries—each of which is loaded with the delicious chili-based hot sauce. Given that Cholula is one of the most widely popular hot sauce brands in the US, the new additions are likely to appeal to the many consumers who've grown to love the product.

Del Taco CMO Tim Hackbardt spoke to the collaboration with Cholula Food Company, stating "We’ve received an incredible response and strong customer demand for our Crispy Chicken since introducing it to our permanent menu this summer. We want to build on that momentum by giving our fans even more crave-worthy flavor options, and what better way to do so than with an iconic hot sauce brand collaboration."
