prb said:

that would be a good prince quiz question.

psychodelicide said:

There's no cheese on the Taco flavor.

Genesia said:

I was thinking more along the lines of a corn chippy feet smell...

Genesia said:

Don't think I've tried the Taco flavored ones yet.

interactiveplayer said:

I think they were the toasted corn ones that I posted a pic of above.

The best flavour..Sweet chilli pepper

Huggiebear said:

Hey huggie, I'm in NZ as well. I just got back from the Gold Coast and had my first bag of Doritos and they were yum. Way better than CCs. I think they were sweet chili flavour. I'm not normally a snack chip eater but they were very moreish.

depends, which summer do you mean? ours or yours?

psychodelicide said:

OMG taco ones used to be the best! I will search the whole bag to find the ones that are super coated with seasoning ... We used to fight about it growing up


My fav is nacho ones dipped in ketchup or frito lays jalepeno cheese dip, the one in the can

JustErin said:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yes thanks for all your replies. We are slow in receiving American and British snacks as we have an established range of snacks of our own. For Corn chips we have CC's, Aztec, Homebrand, Mexicano, Big 400g and general chips we have two huge brands Bluebird and Eta, along with supermarket brands Homebrand, No Frills, Signature Range and Pams So you could say Doritos is going to have an uphill battle here.
We received other American brands in these dates, usually in Auckland first and spreading to the South Island later

KFC arrived in 1971, McDonalds in 1976 (1987 in South Island), Pepsicola in 1987 (Coke arrived in 1941), Wendys in 1994, Burger King in 1996 and Mars Bars arrived in 1987.

Huggiebear said:

did the wendy's get taken over by burger kings there?
people keep telling me we used to have wendy's here but they are all hungry jacks now

These


Plus this

ZombieKitten said:

We still have Wendy's in NZ, I used to go all the time. We don't have Hungry Jacks.

I prefer Danitas plain corn chips with dips.

How do yall mix Doritos with all this shit? Like they don't have potent enough flavor on their own.

Not a huge fan. They're ok but I have to be in the mood.

amazing!!!!

When I was in OZ I put 2 and 2 together and realised Hungry Jacks was BK (Burger King) where it just tastes better. We also have Nandos, but Oporto went belly up 2 years ago. We got Dominos pizza about 2000, and Pizza Hutt about 1975. Taco Bell dosen't exist here as Mexican food is not very popular. Here its just called Burger King.
We also have Borders here (2 stores in Auckland, 1 in Christchurch) and they are officially owned by our big chain Whitcoulls (Known as Angus and Robertson in Oz), but still trade as Borders. Borders didn't ake off here as their prices are skytopical due to the fact most of their stock is imported from the US and the Kiwis have only half the purchasing power and didposable income level of the US. Our average income is about the same as Mississippi's.

Huggiebear said:

wow!
I think our Oportos are still going and so is our Borders
We have Taco Bill instead of Taco Bell but it's not similar at all.
Mexican food
but I have to admit, the mexican food I had in california was a whole different (better) thing than we can get here

Eww, but every now and then I do get a taste for the regular ones. The new flavors turn my stomach a little. I love the hell out of some Cheetos though. Everyone should be treated to the greatness of the day-glo orange snack.

ZombieKitten said:

If it helps, I think Oporto only had one restaurant and it was in Downtown Auckland (Queen Street) our answer to your Pitt Street. Its a shame it went, I loved their Bondi and Norm burgers.

You can get Mexican here, but the cafes will be locally owned and not chains, we regularly make our own Tacos with mince and an Old El Paso Tortilla kit (Tacos, seasoning and sauce)

Huggiebear said:

Pitt st where is that, Sydney? sorry I'm in Melbourne
http://www.oporto.com.au/locations/
I actually thought it more a food court place - there is one at my mall.


this brand?

I make burritos now, but they are nothing like old el paso style, more like what I tried in USA, with black beans and rice and pico de gallo

ZombieKitten said:

Ok insert Flinders Street there, I love Melbourne, its a beautiful city and I prefer it over Sydney. I love the trams, the buildings, the ambience and the great trains (We got a week pass for $26 and went up to Belgrave on Sunday) beautiful. I also went up the Eureka 88 and went out in the glass cube thing.

The Old El Paso box, similar but flatter with a picture of a sun and cactuses and crap behind the taco.

Huggiebear said:

My sister used to live up in Belgrave! but it's now such a fire threat up there

I have yet to visit NZ my parents have been twice now I think

ZombieKitten said:

and the shoes?!?!?!

ZombieKitten said:

Ours , in late June- early July.

In fact, I'm going to visit my relatives there in Sydney.

MSG is WHY they taste good and WHY they are bad for you
