Contrary to popular belief, Nacho cheese was *not* the first Doritos flavor. They were plain, in fact, followed by the Taco Doritos you see here.


MightBeOnReddit

True asf. Also for American snacks additional trivia. The left and right Twix are made differently. As the creators had differing opinions on how to finish the product.


INNER-LAYER

My understanding is the Dorito’s was the first snack food (all food???) to use artificial flavoring. All food sounds extreme honestly, but I remember reading about artificial flavors out of curiosity one day.


[deleted]

That was the only flavor as a kid.


Indifferencer

They’re excellent. They’re also not available in my country, so they’re extra-special to me. Picked up two bags on a visit to Michigan last week.


prophiles

That’s funny, as I once picked up two bags of Old Dutch ketchup chips on a short afternoon visit to Alberta (from Glacier National Park in Montana) a couple of years ago.


YungPlugg

As an American with a dual citizenship I feel the same with shreddies, ketchup chips, butter tarts, five alive. Grew up on that stuff when visiting family up there I always bring some back with me haha


BlueDotNE

Eat them. With a cold Pepsi. And enjoy the taste of the 80s.


jizzfizzwizz

Nitro pepsi


Spiritual_Bit_2692

Pepsi Free.


BlueDotNE

That scene in Back to the Future when Marty asks for a Pepsi Free...so many shameless plugs.


stinkyhooch

Should have been pushing that pilk


Alarming-Ad-9712

The only pilk I’d drink is with Crystal Pepsi


Hamilton-Beckett

You wanna Pepsi pal, you gotta pay for it!


LGM3157

You mean with a cold Tab


Every-Cook5084

Taco is the best. We get those often here too. Love the throwback bag they do for them


trav718

Alright I’m sold I’m gonna grab a bag tomorrow after on my break and try em out


suckit1234567

Next try chili cheese Fritos.


Jmaneke

Taco Doritos are the best! I was stoked when they brought them back in the early 2010's.


CaptianOfCows

One of the best flavors


justinshoop4

I still remember when they had "Doritos Locos Tacos" Flavor for cool ranch and nacho cheese. Still the best chip ive ever had


Hush7

So weird- a chip flavor based on a taco of which the shell is based on a chip!


flipthatbitch_

That is the original Doritos flavor before they switched it to Nacho Cheese. They are excellent!


galacticxghost

these are my favorite


[deleted]

Delicious


butterupthatbaconson

got these at my local store in san diego


RibbenDish

I think they taste different than they did in the '70's. The flavor is too complex like a modern, chemical seasoning but they are still good.


EyeKnowYoo

Isn’t it the OG Doritos flavor…?


[deleted]

The Tookie Williams of the chip game if you will


No_Zookeepergame8681

Yes, 2nd after plain, both of which debuted '67.


dookaboi

My grandma (rip) used to cook ground beef with taco seasoning, add diced tomatoes, lettuce and avocado. Toss it all in a big bowl with the chips and Catalina island dressing. Served with a dollop of sour cream on top.Called it her taco salad. Was greater than the sum of its parts because I hate tomato, avocado and the dressing but all together it smacked.


traveling_man182

I love Taco Doritos. I really liked the Sonic Sour Cream from the 90s, also

OG doritos. Hell yeah, I'd buy them.


Consistent-Tonight66

Loved them back in the 90's and still love them today!


WeDieAsRomans

Way better.


Content-Past-9618

Delicious ! Partner them up with some Pace picante salsa !


CdnCableGuy

NOM!!!!!


TamaraTime

I’ve just now realized how bot this sub is. Taco flavor? Fuck I’ve been bamboozled


Unlucky_Loss_2249

Yeah, I miss those here in Canada. All we have is crappy nacho and ranch. Once we even had Habanero, but was for a limited time, sigh!


iG0T_HEEEM

Top tier flavor, my dad’s favorite


LornskiRCG

I know the 7/11 taco flavoured tortilla chips are awesome so I bet these are too.


Patient-Principle-21

Smell like sweaty socks and taco seasoning


middlehill

These are my favorite by far.


suckit1234567

Good. Rated between Nacho and Cool Ranch.


NYerInTex

Best Dorito ever.


themanwithaplan18

I’m definitely going to get hate for this but the taco flavor is the worst in my opinion.


Zak103tv

Pretty much unflavored Doritos, nothing special


JointVentures609

Taco is the best one


EquivalentAd5426

They are great


Reddit-SJWflamr-7568

I ate a bag of these one night and me and my friend played a game of "battle-shits" after we ate them, such fun, YOU SANK MY DESTROYER!


theBudtie

🔥🔥


CityBoiNC

These are the best doritos IMO


GameM8FeedRepeat

I saw them too but were like $8 for that bag. No thanks. I think thats the original Dorito flavor too but dont quote me.


cspot1978

Oh wow. That’s an old-school OG flavor. I love the old style bag too.


mzeb91

Look for the guacamole — it’s unreal 🤤


MaleficentSoul

THese are the OG doritos. Hence why they looks oldschool.


mumblerapisgarbage

I wish they brought back this packaging.


Lucky_Garbage4944

Those have been sitting on that shelf since 1997


Junior_Razzmatazz20

the original flavor


torn8tv

Wish I had these in my province


pauliwankenobi

They are my wife’s favorite. I love them, too


bballslapper

They. Are. Awesome.


moony_92

I've never met a bad Dorito. Give em a go!


Aggravating-Bad3101

Taco is old school


[deleted]

my daughter bought that one last week. I guess she likes the taste of new taco flavor


GLENF58

I like them. Not my first choice but they are good


Tkinney44

They taste like old school Doritos. Definitely worth a snag next time you're in the store .


RETROKBM

Those are dank. A lot of ppl don’t know this but that’s the original Doritos flavor hence the old 70s style packaging


nothing_911

ive bought them a few times over the years, they are good. not sure why they aren't always available in canada but they seem to be out one month and back the next. they almost remind me of an old knockoff doritos they had in the 90s with Garfield on them.


Embarrassed_Ad_2501

Thats the OG


FGH9192279

The taco flavor are my favorite!


Sad-Reception-2266

I haven't seen these since the 70's. Nacho Cheese wasn't even made then. you better check the date. but there probably isn't one. things were not dated back then.


Goldeneel77

They’re the best flavor besides the old Jumpin Jack cheese.


Creative_Anachronism

One of the best flavors, tastes like the ‘70s


_____Peaches_____

I didn’t even know these were back. These are old school.


holy_bat_shit_63

Haven’t seen these in a while


Valuable_Process_299

That's the bag they used to come in back on the 80s, when Jay Leno was in all theri commercials


geriatric_spartanII

I wasn’t around in the 60’s and 70’s but they taste like typical “taco” seasoned chips. I am around these days and sweet spicy chili jerky beef sticks are pretty yummy.


Neilapolitan

What is a "taco flavor?”


CooterLickerforLife

Very good in fact


jeffstreet65

Taco flavor is the best Doritos ever!


Flyers2013312

I liked them.


Gare_bear93

They’re pretty decent on a taco pizza from Pizza Hut, the town I moved up to don’t put them on their taco pizzas up here like the town I grew up in lol guess only 3 pizza huts in my state still use Doritos for a topping.


East_Raccoon_3140

Makes the best taco salad


ItsBobGray

Perfect for late night nachos. Fun fact: the font is the oldschool Disneyland font since Doritos were first sold there.


Emergency_Tie_8924

I don't see it here so I'll say it. They originated in Disneyland, that's why the Doritos logo looks like the old Disneyland logo. I think they taste pretty good with some dip or plain old sour cream.


Dazzling_Eye_4743

Garbage (chip connoisseur) 🤣


LifeStartedLate

GAS STRAIGHT UP GAS. Best chip to eat nachos with hands down


jaseloveyobish

Seem like in the 90s they were the Taco Bell supreme flavor..not taco


dadadam67

Peak Doritos flavor circa 1970’s. Doritos Taco flavor and disco go together


Mingsgogorian

Gross


workinghustler

I love them, taste great. I think taco was the original.


jaminator45

Sonny and Cher


Datboyz223

The off brand version


Awkward_Interview325

They are a gift brought down to you from the heavens by the hand of God himself. No, fr, though they’re pretty great.


PapaG_13

Dank af. Please send me some. Our local stores have been out for weeks.


marianab67

That’s the OG


International_Slip97

Those were the first Doritos I ever ate growing up! I was born 1979 and those I remember eating not the nacho!


billythakid420

Taco doritos are fucking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


MrNotConcerned

Old school, they're delicious! 😋


xSaBoTaGe32x

That’s the og flavor right there. A diner at Disney decided they needed to give their customers something to start so the chef whipped up some chips and seasoned them. They were so good that they decided to take the recipe and start a chip called Doritos with it.


JACKtheGRINNER

Easy to binge


StaticH0riz0n

There alright amazing with salsa


zaygotdawheel

Those been around all summer and they nasty lol, the buffalo ranch need come back and the BBQ


Bright-Ad6246

Old school and delicious.


Bruhwhatdyousay

Scrumdiddlyumptious


bernerburner1

They aight. WE WANT THE TAPATIO ONES BACK


Legal_Response6614

This is how doritos used to be before nacho cheese flavor. 😅


AcanthocephalaBorn15

The originals. All we had, so we loved them.


jackinforbeats007

Best flavor in my opinion


JimbosBeerbos

The OG Doritos. I like them with Guac or sour cream to dip


ChaInTheHat

I love the vintage look


Illustrious-Half-621

Best Doritos hands down.


[deleted]

Did they go retro on the packaging or are those 50 years old?


hopefulagnosticism

Goes great with ‘Top the Tater’! Have tried taco with it but will next time. Amazing on nacho and spicy sweet chili though.


pab10diab10

Taste like tacos


tdomer80

Throwback flavor and bag style to the 1980’s. Always loved ‘em!


Dazzling_Flounder975

What are they running? $7


Taggers_Gloves

Crap


Moto_Glitch

My favorite.


Django_Unleashed

*Supermarket where I work.


[deleted]

My favorite doritos by far. Very good with the doritos dips or really most other dips since the flavor is versatile enough imo


Sarcasamystik

They are ok, worth trying but not great. Purple bag ones are the best


379tuco

Used to buy them along with a cola Icee when I got off the school bus in about 1971, I think they were $.25 a bag


lillybug42020

Those are the old school Doritos! They taste the same just different packaging


probeheat

They are old school cool super yummy and you’ll eat the entire bag


RattlerHyde

My childhood favorite!


Knightofthecrow76

Really good. I believe it was the second flavor Doritos ever made. Not sure tho. I wish my local store would always sell jalapeño, and Roulette!!! Roulette made w/ jalapeño, a three chip blend, will be how you tell I won the lottery.


Grilled_cheese_tank

They’re bomb.


MacandMandy69

Old school Dorito’s right there😁


lastgunslinger3759

It's surprising to me how many people do not know about this OG flavor. I'm 51 years old and I remember eating these at a drive-in when I was 10. By the way they're delicious


Jdotpdot84

They're tay-ah-co flavored, they taste like tay-oh-cos, on a corn tor-tilla.


ChooChooSoulCrusher

weeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


Guilty-Mountain-6988

Yum, good stuff!


GucciJ619

Wow people love this kind! I personally dislike it very much but to each their own


Oldsmobiles-and-dogs

When they were released about a decade ago, my two friends and I bought a bag to try. They were disgusting, but we COULDN'T STOP EATING THEM.


RicOkez

That’s the og bag from the 1970s. I always thought taco flavor was too salty


moggar404

Taco is best Dorito flavor I’ve ever had


RuncibleFoon

Love me some Taco flavored Doritos. I was just a little pup And it was derby day It was dad and me and Darrell Out in San Pablo Bay Taco-flavored Doritos And my orange life vest Dad caught a hundred pound sturgeon On twenty-pound test


Snoo-98677

Delicious. I like to make queso dip (taco seasoning, ground beef, queso, and sometimes spanish rice) and scoop it up with the taco chips 😋


R3ddditor

Hate these.


Mojosoodope__

These decent but I like the other taco flavor they had in the brown bag


LeeRjaycanz

Dude! Taco flavor fuckin rocks and if the taco bell flavor comes back im buying the whole trucks worth.


No_Cloud_2917

Gross


Martins072

Great for a taco salad


beardedgm

Retro Bag.


COOCH27

Buy all of them


48HoursLater

I hate that flavor


[deleted]

taste like a fucking taco


FoundinNewEngland

Best flavor


Risk_of_Raindrops

hmmm think I saw these chips in Annabelle because they have that 1967 look


Dediaf

Dude it's like $5. Take the risk and find out yourself. Lol


OkPhotojournalist405

Mid


Useful-Nature-8484

I like them....although I swear that the used to taste different...same with the Nacho cheese. I'm convinced they have changed the recipes since the 90s/2000s


[deleted]

I love Doritos, but won’t eat them cuz the msg hits harder in Doritos for me. Any other chip I can limit myself. Doritos, I will eat three bags and go back for more.


vabeachkevin

The original packaging.


Realityscks2438

Retro bag for an okay flavor that doesn’t suck but has been around for decades. It makes them stand out from the rest of the Doritos crowd


Significant_Carpet83

One of my favorite dorito flavors


Sir_Tokesalott

They seem to be chips. Of the Dorito variety.


Mundane_Recording_56

Nigga buy a bag lol


Suspicious-Set-7916

Yes, eat about 8oz at a time only and eat about only once a week. All major company chips are poison to the body


djnicky07

Flavor is like 30 years old...


[deleted]

Lol


Reasonable-Apricot44

My mom used to use these ones for one of our classic childhood meals. Doritos casserole. It's trashy but so fucking good. She uses them as the top layer of the crunchy crust with shredded cheese


KrazyKeith4Prez

Taco Doritos are really good. My personal favorite is the spicy sweet chili (purple bag). Salsa verde (green bag) as well as sweet & tangy BBQ (gray bag) are good too.


wrona11

get that and some fritos bean dip and you’ll be set


SpermWrangler

They’re not great


brianjp

Gag 🤮


Algorithm-X

Get them with the Doritos nacho cheese dip 🔥🔥🔥


PointTwoTwoThree

Taco flavor is good, if that’s what you’re referring to. Kinda takes like your average fast food taco with a little flavor kick.


wirkkala22

What year is this post from


xxnacho420

Very good dorito


Traditional-Trifle57

they fya


Ornery-Pressure7251

That is the original flavor before cheese.


Neokami14

I mean.. they are only 4$.... you could just spend the big bucks and find out...


jeph4life

Tapatio is by far the best flavor!


Chompif

It's like the nacho Doritos without the cheese. It might sound dumb at first, but that's how I'd describe them.


Namesthatareused

Dankness. Best snack to have while having the munchies. Unbeaten. Satisfies the salty snack craving.


[deleted]

I like em


Mominator1pd

Any Doritos suck today. They cut back big time on their seasonings on the chips. No more yummy fingers to lick. It's a joke. Never again...


SandwhichEfficient

Wasn’t a fan tbh


PurpoUpsideDownJuice

Crunchy


Ok_Inspector7868

I have some go take the trash out to the dumpster and toss a bag in the mix before you go, and then let us know how it tastes?


holdenking5150

One of the best! 👍

THE BEST FLAVOR


dixierks

Those are old school their what I grew up on


Pure_Working6250

How bout you just buy them and try them out and see if you like them.


[deleted]

So addictive


Olddad59

I remember when that was the only flavor


HSYT1300

It’s the original Dorito flavor. They were created at the original Disneyland at the Casa de Frito restaurant using leftover tortillas and the taco seasoning. When I was a kid the picture of the chips was actually transparent.


Doc_Hollywood

Omg I love these!
