Have you tried taco bell doritos locos tacos? What did you think?

There’s numerous news articles claiming these Taco sales created 15,000 jobs. They’re opening 2000 new stores in the next ten years.

Ok, I went and bought four of the new Cool Ranch tacos. They were good. The shell was fresher and crisper than the regular Taco Bell taco. It filled me up.

But, I’m not getting the excitement? I have no desire to rush out every few days for a doritos locos taco. I might not buy more doritos locos tacos for a couple months.

Is it just me? Are these Tacos the greatest thing since sliced bread?

Fill me in! I want to understand this cultural phenomenon. :stuck_out_tongue:

Tried them; wasn’t impressed. I like Doritos, but the Doritos taco shells (at least the ones I had) were thinner and staler than the typical chips out of a bag.

3

The shells were good, the problem was they had Taco Bell insides. If it had been Taco Bueno instead, they’d be great.

4

I voted “good but I rarely buy them.” I really like them, but sometimes they don’t like me back. I want to try the Cool Ranch variety but I’m afraid they might hurt me. :frowning:

I didn’t like the nacho cheese

haven’t tried cool ranch

6

I haven’t tried but I bought one for my 14 year old son figuring he’d be all over it. He was polite to me about it but obviously unimpressed.

7

I like the nacho cheese, DH is VERY enthused about them. We haven’t tried the cool ranch yet.

8

I was prepared to hate it but I have to say I really liked the nacho cheese version. Haven’t tried cool ranch yet but I don’t like the chips that well so I don’t have high hopes on the taco. No complaints with the nacho ones though.

I love 'em, but I liked Taco Bell anyway. As far as these things go, Doritos for a crunchy taco shell was an awesome idea. They’re too expensive, however, relative to the regular crunchy taco. I just hope the new Doritos flavors (cool ranch) being introduced do not infect the regular Doritos shells with a sour cream flavor. They’d better keep an eye on that!

10

I liked it but rarely eat fast food, so I don’t know when I’ll ever eat another.

11

I just don’t like hardshell tacos. At all. But I bet they’re tasty.

12

I don’t care for them for regular tacos. But a Cheesy Gordita Crunch with a nacho Dorito shell instead of the regular taco is heaven. What’s amusing to me though is making that substitution adds 60 cents. So assuming the Dorito shells are basic taco shells with Dorito cheese powder on them, they’re saying the powder is worth 60 cents.

13

The nacho cheese ones were pointless. It basically just tasted like a normal taco if eating the taco normally, but you could taste the nacho cheese dust if you licked the shell. And the shell wasn’t as strong as the normal ones; they usually fell apart getting taco mess everywhere.

Haven’t tried the cool ranch ones yet.

This was my reaction as well. I’ve only had them once for this reason.

15

Waiting for the Taco Doritos Tacos. :stuck_out_tongue:

Late Night Cheeseburger Doritos Locos Tacos!

17

I tried them and liked them, but I can’t eat at Taco Bell now because of gluten issues (no idea what they are doing there, but they put gluten in everything).

I’m a little sorry now that I know they have cool ranch ones. I love cool ranch Doritos. Ah well.

18

They were promoting them big time at SXSW last week and people were lining up for those things when they were in the town of the best tacos ever. I definitely see this being huge for them. I’ve had a Cool Ranch one, and I will probably get another, but not for months.

19

I’ve had them both and pretty much all I taste is salt. So I’ll have one on occasion, but I’d be fine if they disappeared off the menu.

Oh, how I miss Late Night Cheeseburger Doritos! I still look for them on the shelves, even though I know they are no more! :frowning:

I make burritos with sharp cheddar, rolled up in flour tortillas, and they’re OK, but if I put in lightly crushed Doritos, they are transformed into something almost great!
