Taco Bell has released one new menu item in collaboration with Doritos, the 'Flamin' Hot Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Tacos.' This item is similar to the brand's previous spicy-hot tacos where the entire shell is made out of a spicy tortilla chip. This time, however, in celebration of Dorito's launching its new 'Flamin' Hot Cool Ranch Doritos,' the entire taco shell will effectively be a large version of one of these tortilla chips.
This new spicy taco will be available on February 10th for a limited time, while supplies last. On top of this, customers can also upsize their flaming hot taco to a 'Supreme' version for a total of $2.49 USD. As part of the release of this new taco, Taco Bell has also released a variety of combination menu items that incorporate this taco, such as variety boxes or six-packs of tacos.
