Welcome To Taste of States a place where we celebrate the weird and wonderful food of the United States of America. This can be everything from the snacks that are available for a limited time to the foods that are classic traditions at events such as Christmas and Thanksgiving! Each week we will explore the facts and the history surrounding a different food.

CARL ‘S JNR CHICKEN TAQUITOS

Today we are looking at a product that used to be available at a fast food restaurant around 2021. Carl’s Jnr Restaurants is a chain that started in the 1940’s in Anaheim and has gained success that it has expanded to many other cities, South America, Europe and Africa.

In 2012, the fast food chain released Chicken Taquitos – you could buy them as a 3 or a 5 piece meal which was served with shredded lettuce, shredded jack and cheddar cheese as well as chocolate cilantro sauce.

There are 529 calories in a three piece meal of Chicken Taquitos and from the research I have done I cannot see any evidence that this is still available.

I cannot find any reviews of the product online but on Facebook when they were first announced there was a lot of positive response.
