There is shameful, preservative-laden real estate in my heart reserved for both Doritos and Taco Bell, which is why my ears perked up at the gross/intoxicating news TB now offers a taco shell literally made out of Doritos. A most evil union. Only time and childish overconsumption of whiskey will tell if I'll end up getting popped in the mouth by of these sodium-haymaker beasts — "completely surprising, yet somehow inevitable" is the Bell's official condescending-as-fuck tagline — but I'm curious which Meal Ticket readers have crushed one already. Need thoughts. I know you kids are out there, mulling over your entry in our High Times cookbook contest (deadline's 5 p.m.!), so speak up in the comments.

    So I happened to be driving in South Philly the other night and needed to get my Taco Bell fix, not even realizing these tacos had been released yet (actually I had only just heard about them that morning). When I saw them on the menu when ordering, I 100% absolutely had to get some since crunchy taco supremes are pretty much my favorite shitty food ever.

    To be honest I didn't think it tasted as Doritos-y as I was expecting. Maybe it was all the toppings and hot sauce that was piled on? In any case, the Doritos taco just made me want to go devour a giant bag of Doritos so if that was the marketing goal, mission accomplished?

    jen_k, what if they made the Taco Bell Doritos taco shells out of TACO BELL-FLAVORED Doritos? I'm assuming that would open up a wormhole allowing you to warp to Level 0 from the early Sega Genesis game Toejam & Earl

    I think the better question is "Why aren't more things made of Doritos?"

    That is, indeed, the better question.
