Mexican fast food chain Del Taco recently released a novelty soap that smells like crispy fried potatoes and is packaged like an elegant French soap. The French Fry-Scented Soap was created to kick off the launch of the new Del Taco Fresh Faves boxes, each of which comes with Del Taco's signature crinkle-cut fries.
Del Taco describes that the fresh soap "will make you smell as exquisite as the world-famous fries we include in our Fresh Faves Box Meal" and the novelty Eau De French Fry bath product quickly sold out online—fortunately, the chain plans to restock the soap soon for those who have yet to try it.
Del Taco's online shop also sells a variety of fun fast food merchandise, including everything from hot sauce to apparel and accessories.
