Taco Bell Crispy Chicken Strips: nutrition and allergens

Nutrition facts

Percentages are the share of the FDA Daily Value for adults and children 4 and over, worked out from Taco Bell’s published amounts (how % Daily Value works). A dash means Taco Bell does not publish that value for this size.

Using the FDA’s rule of thumb that 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low and 20% or more is high, the 2 piece size is high in sodium (31%) and protein (28%) and is low in saturated fat and added sugars. Add it up with other items in the Taco Bell nutrition calculator.

Allergens

According to Taco Bell, the Crispy Chicken Strips contains wheat and gluten.

Taco Bell says its kitchens handle egg, milk, soy, wheat and other allergens on shared equipment and in shared areas, so it cannot rule out cross-contact. Its allergen information reflects standard recipes as of the last update. Peanuts, tree nuts, fish and shellfish are not used in regular menu items, but those items may be made in facilities that also handle them, and test or limited-time items may contain them. Soybean oil is not flagged as a soy allergen. Taco Bell makes no gluten-free claims: some items are made without gluten ingredients but are prepared in shared kitchen areas and shared fryer oil, and it does not recommend its food for people with celiac disease. Its AVA-certified vegetarian items are lacto-ovo vegetarian, but they may share frying oil and handling with meat.
