Doritos Guacamole was a popular, discontinued flavor, originally a limited-time item in the early 2000s (around 2001-2003) and then pulled around 2006, known for its creamy, zesty, avocado-lime taste with garlic, onion, and a hint of spice, mimicking fresh guacamole, and made a limited-time comeback in Spring 2025 after fan demand. While it didn't contain actual avocado, the seasoning aimed for that authentic dip experience, blending savory and tangy notes, often compared to a spicier Cool Ranch, but wasn't spicy enough for some modern tastes, leading to its discontinuation.

Flavor Profile:

Taste: A blend of garlic, onion, lime, and a creamy avocado essence with a mild spicy kick.

Texture/Sensation: Described as having a "mushy-like" quality as it dissolves, capturing the dip's texture, and leaving a lingering flavor.

Comparison: Similar to Cool Ranch but with distinct guacamole notes, sometimes feeling like a corn chip dipped in guacamole.

History:

Introduction: First launched as a limited edition in the U.S. around 2001-2003.

Discontinuation: Removed from shelves around 2006.

Reason for Discontinuation: Likely due to changing market demands for spicier options and making room for new flavors, as the mild profile didn't align with newer trends.
