Everyone stop what you're doing; Chick-fil-A has a new cheese sauce, and people actually can't get enough of it. (P.S., it definitely sounds keto-friendly).
Here are the deets: According to TODAY Food , Chick-fil-A is now offering a super cheesy dipping sauce at select locations (over 430 Chick-fil-A restaurants across the country). "It is an optional condiment that restaurants can offer where there is demand for it," a Chick-fil-A rep told the outlet.
Apparently, the sauce, which actually first appeared way back in 2012 in select restaurants, is a mix of Swiss and Parmesan cheese (hold your drool for a sec), and has 160 calories per three-ounce serving. (FYI: Other sauces, like barbecue and buttermilk ranch come in one-ounce serving sizes, so, win.)
The news comes after Chick-fil-A released a brand-new keto menu , and while the carb content of the sauce isn't available yet, with two different types of cheeses, the cheese sauce definitely sounds like a keto option.

Also, because it'a cheesy Chick-fil-A concoction, people are going absolutely bonkers over it on social media:
OMG @ChickfilA HAS CHEESE SAUCE AND ITS LIFE CHANGING - Ashley Barber (@smashleytmx3) February 27, 2019
The cheese sauce from chick fil a is the best thing thats ever happened to me - ash (@ashleeastevens) February 21, 2019
So I had no idea that some of yall havent been experiencing the greatness of @ChickfilA cheese sauce until recently? So sorry to hear that. Ive BEEN obsessed. - Destinee (@DestineeD__) February 27, 2019
Something to keep in mind: You cant just grab a bunch of the cheese sauce and haul it home by accident to use down the road like you do with the classic Chick-fil-A sauce-the cheese sauce will set you back $1.19 per cup (which, again, is bigger than other dipping sauce servings, so, fair).
Even if youre okay with shelling out extra for sauce, your local Chick-fil-A might not stock it (check the Chick-fil-A app to find out if yours done). Chick-fil-A told a fan on Twitter today that cheese sauce is an optional menu item. Its inclusion is a restaurant-level decision made by the individual operator, they wrote. Thats prompting some people to (understandably) try to rally their local chain to get the sauce ASAP.

Go ahead and snag some of Chick-fil-A's grilled chicken nuggets to dip in the sauce, and, voila-you've got a perfect keto fast food meal.
