Winter means time for comfort food, which is why it's the perfect time for Sonic's new Fritos Chili Cheese Faves menu.

Sonic's new Fritos Chili Cheese Faves menu is a selection of fast food dishes that revolve around the beloved American dish Fritos Pie, which involves pouring beef chili on top of a pile of Fritos corn chips. Sonic is not only offering it's own version of Fritos Pie, but it is also transforming the dish into a Jr. Wrap and a Jr. Burger. At certain locations, fans can even add Fritos to their Chili Cheese Coney hot dog for a small charge.

With items ranging in price from 99 cents to $1.99, the new Fritos-themed dishes are an easy and affordable meal option for cold winter days.
