I'm a sucker for weird new flavors of things. I know they're going to be gross, but I feel honor-bound to give them a try before I dismiss them. Pizza Pringles are an excellent example. I could tell just by the graphic design of the packaging that they were going to be terrible. But I tried them anyway. They were terrible. Now I never have to eat another Pizza Pringle again, and I don't have to fear accusations of knee-jerk prejudice.
So I was walking through the grocery store, experimenting with keeping to a budget instead of impulse-buying like a madman. I had a small and very specific shopping list. But I passed one of the promotional displays at the end of an aisle, and there were these green bags of Doritos. Guacamole-flavored, and according to the picture on the bag, the chips were actually green as well.
My mind said "No, no, no!" but my body, more specifically my hand, said "Yes, yes, yes!" Unable to help myself, I put a bag of Guacamole Doritos in my cart. (In a pathetic effort to retain SOME credibility, I need to point out that I put two bags in my cart, since it was a two for the price of one sale, but then I put one back.)
I tried to ignore the bag of Guacamole Doritos for a few days, putting off the inevitable. Ominously, the bright green Dorito bag was sitting on top of the lime green Gatorade canister on my kitchen counter. Two more hideously unnatural food products have never been stacked.
When I finally decided to try these "Guacamole-flavored" Doritos, I opened the bag, and sat down at the computer. This was to give an unbiased taste-test, since mindless snacking at the computer is how I eat regular Doritos. My first impression was pleasant surprise. They really do taste like guacamole. Well, that is to say, you can recognize flavor of guacamole, and not mistake it for anything else.
and i want them back
I really never imagined that so many of you would care about these green chips. If you have a moment today please pass this link to someone who might remember the flavor because seeing this grow is entirely due to your enthusiasm.

I truly never imagined that nearly one hundred people would care this much about a goofy green chip. This momentum is entirely because of your enthusiasm and I am honestly just floored by how much you all want these back.

These brought back memories from early 2005 when my dad would buy me them because he knew how much I had enjoyed them! I mean, come on. Who doesn’t love guacamole!? It’s one if not, the best flavor Doritos has ever had! So yes, Bring Them Back!

These were the best, I was hesitant of trying them at first but the flavor was great. Turned into my after school go-to while I was in middle school. Then they took them off the shelfs and my heart was broken. Now to fill my needs for Guacamole chips I have tried Guacachips. But the flower profile is not near what the original Doritos Guacamole was.

Bring back the GOT DAMN GUACAMOLE DORITOS and this time for good! I don't want no damn limited editions this time around. Make them permanent like the Nacho Cheese flavor.

I was addicted to them. Before I figured out they were discontinued, I would drive from store to store and search out a fresh bag. Please, bring them back. There is, and was, nothing like them!

I don't think Frito Lay realizes how many people really liked these chips. I was so disappointed when they discontinued these chips. I was even more disappointed when they didn't bring them back for their Doritos flavor throwbacks.
Please answer to our wishes Frito Lay!
