Cool Ranch – Shaun Melady
Crunchy. Crisp. Creamy. Many different flavors all in one. It is a delightful treat encompassed by a unique, shell, which makes up the one and only Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco.
In my opinion, the latest invention of the new Doritos shell overrules the original Nacho Cheese variation; however, I do think the Nacho Cheese tacos are very scrumptious.
The Cool Ranch tacos have a unique blend of meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato and sour-cream that complements perfectly the crunch and crispness of the Dorito shell.
Chris Webber, a General Studies major said that the only flaw of the taco was the brittleness of the shell, but besides that he really enjoyed his first experience.
I agree with Webber’s standpoint on the brittleness of the shell; however, I think the frailty of the taco makes it unique and more representative of the actual chip itself.
I have to say that Taco Bell made a great investment in the partnering with Doritos to make this combination of entities. This may be the unstoppable force that will never meet an immovable object because of the greatness that it is.
Nacho Cheese – Landis Tindell
With lettuce, sour cream, tomatoes and seasoned ground beef, what goes better on a taco than cheese? The Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco brings cheese and tacos to a whole new relationship. Not only is shredded cheese melted into the beef, but the shell itself adds an entirely new depth to cheese and tacos. What can beat the leftover orange residue on your fingers left only to lick off after consuming a Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco?
Had Taco Bell found the Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco to be better, they would have released it first; but they didn’t. Nacho Cheese and tacos just go together. There is no better way to say it. Taco Bell sold 375 million nacho cheese tacos last year; there is no getting around the numbers.
Since enjoying my first nacho cheese taco, regular tacos don’t have the same punch and regular tacos no longer make it onto my tray. Nacho Cheese is synonymous with Doritos, Taco Bell tacos and the favorite among students at Harding, clearly making it superior to Cool Ranch.
