DORITOS GET LOADED?! - Food Feeder

  • 10 years ago
You can always count on Doritos to take their product in, um, "original" directions. Now they've teamed up with 7-Eleven to make something called "loaded" Doritos, which amounts to fried "Cheese" "breaded" with Doritos. That's a lot of "quotes..."

Turns out "loaded Doritos" are basically mozzarella sticks, taking everything that's bad about mozzarella sticks (Deep fried cheese - really?) and removing the only redeeming features of mozzarella sticks (mozzarella). Instead, 7-Eleven is frying up little triangles of Cheez or "cheese" or Cheese food product (*Acutal cheese content not known). And instead of breading them in seasoned italian breadcrubs, these chunks of (probably) dairy product are coated in Doritos before deep frying. Keep in mind, as tortilla chips (kinda), Doritos are probably deep fried already.

Loaded Doritos were unavailable to the public at the time of this taping, but they may be hitting stores any day now.

Have you had the chance to try these out yourself? Are you going to pick up a pack of these the next time you grab a coffee on the way to work? Could these be the true solution to ending our nations's non existent struggle with LOW blood pressure and low cholesterol? What other weird food items have you seen at your local convenience store that we should try?**

TELL US EVERYTHING!!

**Please don't attempt to mail us deep-fried cheese, or other "fresh" food items from 7-Eleven. It won't turn out well for anyone.
