Just goes to show ya, fiery foods are taking off like never before. I think they still need salsa / hot sauce for the heat but they have good flavor and leave a little tingle in your mouth as is.

Haven't seen this product yet. I'll keep my eyes on the lookout for them tho...
They really aren't that bad. Considering they are a mainstream product. They are unavailable in NJ, but I had a case of them shipped to me from Texas. Frito-Lay is also out with Habanero kettle chips, ans supposed to be much hotter than the Doritos. I'm now in an all out search to find them.
We did a post about these Doritos a couple of weeks ago on our blog, The Hot Zone Online. You may want to give it a read at:

Chuk,
We had a large discussion about these on the HSB. They aren't hot, but for a mainstream product, it shows that the industry is at least trying to bend towards hotter and spicier foods. I have a bunch of these bags here, and a lot of my friends find them very warm if not too hot. One must realize that groups of people on this forum as well as other chili forums are not the mainstream consumer when it comes to hot foods. If Doritos was to put out a product that was hot for you or me, the general public just wouldn't buy them. As I stated Frito-Lay is also coming out with Habanero kettle chips that are supposed to pack a better amount of heat. So far, I have been unable to find them.

Isn't Canada where you find those crazy Ketchup flavored chips? And the ones that taste like dill pickles? Though the salt and vingear ones have gotten popular here in the States, and I used to only be able to get those in Canada. Maybe they can't find space to put the habanero doritos amid all the other condiment chips.
