Earlier this year, the modern Mexican chain 'Fuzzy's Taco Shop' introduced a spicy new appetizer called 'Jalapeno Bottle Caps.' With a growing number of consumers opting for smaller dishes that can be shared with others, this appetizer provides customers with a perfect snack-sized option.
The Jalapeno Bottle Caps consisted of fresh jalapeno slices that were battered, fried and then coasted in the chain's signature 'Fuzzy Dust.' The appetizer was also served with a side of house-made avocado ranch dressing for dipping. The dish was marketed as a way to satisfy late-night munchies alongside the chain's expansive drink menu.
While the dish was only available for a limited time, the Jalapeno Bottle Caps are indicative of a larger demand for appetizer-sized dishes that pack just as much flavor as entrees.
