LIVEBLOG: Quartet of Doritos

I'm live blogging from my living room about to consume two kinds of Collisions Doritos.



8:57pm
I just opened the bag of Hot Wings/Blue Cheese. I can tell the difference in flavors by looking at the chips (one red, one white).

8:58pm
Blue Cheese alone tastes a lot like Cool Ranch, but with that blue cheesey aftertaste.

8:59pm
Hot Wings alone tastes just like regular Doritos, but with a tiny spiced aftertaste. Not very noticable. I'm disappointed so far.

9:00pm
Taken together the flavors compliment and enhance each other a bit. I dunno. This is not as cool as I thought it would be. Ok I'm opening Zesty Taco/Chipotle Ranch. Coke is serving as my palette cleanser.

9:02pm
I think some of the Zesty Taco rubbed off on the Chipotle Ranch because it tastes kind of taco-y.

9:03pm
Zesty Taco tastes a LOT like a taco. Or it tastes like that powder taco seasoning. Which is probably exactly what they used to flavor this chip.

9:05pm
The Zesty Taco and Chipotle Ranch really go well together. The spice of the Taco comes in and then the Chipotle Ranch cooooools it down. Chipotle Ranch is a misnomer though b/c it's not spicy at all.

9:10pm
Things are getting difficult to decipher as the flavors keep building in my mouth. All that powdery seasoning is lingering too much for me to keep these taste sensations straight.

9:12pm
Ok I really can't tell what's what now.

15 minutes of liveblogging two bags of chips. that's pretty solid

Hey, did you know about the contest Doritos had to figure out the secret flavor? I didn't even hear about it until it was over. The secret flavor was like cheeseburger or some shit. I appreciate all the innovation, but Doritos should probably know that 90% of the time I'm gonna stick with Nacho Cheese or Cool Ranch (AKA Cool American in Sweden, Norway, et al.)
