Taco Bell to Launch Nacho Cheese Doritos Taco Shells Nationwide, Cool Ranch Flavor to Follow?


Entire taco shells that are made of Nacho Cheese Doritos? That’s right, they’re called the Doritos Locos Tacos, and they’re coming very soon to a Taco Bell near you. In fact, come midnight March 8, 2012 the Nacho Cheese variety of the Doritos Locos Taco shells will be available at participating locations nationwide.

We’ve heard the rumors, but the official word is in, straight from Taco Bell CEO Greg Creed at a cozy blogger event we’re live tweeting from at the Taco Bell headquarters in Irvine, CA.

According to the information leaking out from the event, not only is the Nacho Cheese variety on its way, a shell made of the equally sought after Cool Ranch Doritos flavor has already been developed, tested and is also on the way for Taco Bell customers soon after.

Some of the tweets arising from the event so far, both Doritos Locos Tacos related and otherwise:

@foodbeast: Baja Blast is never coming to a convenience store or grocery store near you. Only in @TacoBell locations. #doritoslocostacos launch

@foodbeast: Taco Bell uses 300 million pounds of beef each year. #doritoslocostacos

@foodbeast: Cool Ranch Doritos Taco Shell is coming. Already been developed and tested. #doritoslocostacos

@foodbeast: Greg Creed predicts hundreds of millions of Doritos Locos Tacos will Be sold. #doritoslocostacos launch

More information on the new products as they come in. Until then, tune in to Twitter for Geoffrey Kutnick and Marc Kharrat live tweeting the event.

      This is actually a graphic image of what is quite obviously a kidnapping. The criminals mask even their hands out of fear of the repercussions. They are trying not to leave any traces of DNA or fingerprints on the shells.

       Because it only makes sense to wear gloves while preparing food in a fast food restaurant, no?~

           Where did he get his ass handed to him? I wanna seee!

          You have to admit, it does look rather “clinical” than it does appetizing, from a promotional standpoint. 

          Personally, I enjoy it more when spammish sycophantic statements get challenged for what they are.

    I feel it important to share with you all the great feelings I have had in my back, feet, and chest ever since I stopped eating fast food.  Do I eat healthy all the time?  No. I drink more than I’m proud of and my portions are unreasonable.  However, nothing has made a more marked effect on my body and well being than having stopped eating drive-through fare.  Stopped last Summer.  Try it for a month, see how you feel.
