Oh, Doritos JACKED. I’ve had such a love/hate relationship with you. Sometimes you cut my mouth open, sometimes your flavors are awesome, sometimes they are horrible, or sometimes, as in the case of Jalapeno Pepper Jack JACKED 3Ds, I wondered what the point was.
And now we have Doritos Bacon Cheddar Ranch JACKED 3D, first spotted in Canada, and now spotted by me at a Family Fare in two different bag sizes. Given my past experience with JACKED products, I opted for the big bag.

Doritos Bacon Cheddar Ranch JACKED 3D! A 3D video in every bite….WHATEVER THAT MEANS
Doritos Bacon Cheddar Ranch JACKED 3D contain bacon fat, which is a new trend I must applaud. Why did it take so long for companies to start adding actual fat to these chips they want to taste like meat? I dunno, but I love that they are doing it now.
I opened this bag of Doritos Bacon Cheddar Ranch JACKED 3D and sniffed – cheesy aroma, and a bit of smoke. Honestly, I wonder if its even possible to screw up a flavor that is called Bacon Cheddar Ranch. Then again, I’ve seen basic flavors like Hot Wing screwed up, so why would I be surprised?
I popped a bunch of these Doritos Bacon Cheddar Ranch JACKED 3D into my mouth and crunched…and I have to admit, not bad! Not bad at all. Not GREAT, mind you, but not BAD.
The crunch was familiar from my past JACKED experiences – a big mouthful of corn chip, and because of this triangular shape, these were super crunchy. I didn’t hate that. The seasoning was…inconsistent. The initial flavor was HEAVY of the cheese and spices – and, to me, distinctly cheddar over any sort of nacho flavor. These had a sharp cheese flavor. The savory cheese flavor was, to be honest, a bit overwhelming. But, given the chip construction, I thought it matched up well. For anyone WANTING bold zesty cheese flavor, these had that.
The bacon flavor was there, but mainly in the form of smokiness. I got plenty of that as I chewed, so I guess my mind could imagine bacon flavor there too. You know what, I relent – yes, these tasted bacon-y. The cheddar bacon combo was there.
But ranch? non-existent. Sure, there were som zesty spices, but I wanted the ranch to really give an additional sour kick on the back end, and I didn’t get that. The chip WAS creamy, but that I attributed more to the cheese than anything else.
The combo? As I said, not bad – pretty strong in flavor as I’ve come to expect from the JACKED line, and I did like these way better than the Jalapeno Pepper Jack version. At least this flavor DID taste somewhat like the description. Yeah, I’d probably eat these again.
Still not a super fan, but if I had to rank these on a 10 scale, I’d give them a solid 6.5.
