In celebration of National Taco Day in the United States, Moe’s Southwest Grill and Eggo are teaming up to offer a limited-time Eggo Taco. The new product combines the fast casual restaurant chain’s bold flavors with the popular Eggo Homestyle waffle sold in frozen retail packs at supermarkets and grocery stores nationwide. It features adobo chicken topped with bacon, shredded cheese and chipotle ranch served on a fried Eggo waffle as the taco shell.
“We aren’t afraid to be adventurous with our menu by infusing creativity and innovation into new offerings,” said Joe Artime, vice president of marketing at Moe’s Southwest Grill. “We’re excited to introduce a unique spin on our classic tacos in collaboration with Eggo, feeding our fans’ appetite for new and unexpected flavors.”
For one day only on October 4 at select locations in Atlanta, Georgia, northern New Jersey, Long Island and South Florida, customers can get a free Eggo Taco with any in-store entree purchase, including a burrito, quesadilla or stack.
“Eggo waffles have long been a fan favorite due to their great taste and versatility. We are excited to partner with Moe’s to showcase how that taste and versatility can be used in unique concepts. Incorporating the Eggo Homestyle waffle into a taco is going to delight taco and Eggo fans alike,” said Eliza Coteng, frozen breakfast portfolio director at Kellogg Away From Home division.
Founded in 2000 and based in Atlanta, Moe’s Southwest Grill offers an extensive Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine menu at 628 locations in 37 states including Hawaii. The chain is a member of Focus Brands, an affiliate of Roark Capital Group that also owns Carvel, Cinnabon, Schlotzsky’s, McAlister’s Deli, Auntie Anne’s and Jamba brands.
