Description

Nacho cheese-flavored Doritos are a puffed corn snack seasoned with an intense and flavorful nacho cheese blend, combining creamy, slightly spicy, and salty notes. These crunchy chips are ideal for accompanying dips, guacamole, or as a quick and delicious snack.

Origin: Doritos is an American brand owned by Frito-Lay, which launched this particular flavor in the 1970s. The name "nacho" refers to the seasoning inspired by the melted, spiced cheese that became popular in Tex-Mex cuisine.

Properties: Although Doritos are primarily known for their flavor and texture, nutritionally they mainly provide carbohydrates and fats, along with sodium and flavor-enhancing additives. They are not a nutritious food in themselves but are widely used to add texture and flavor in various casual cooking recipes.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: In most Spanish-speaking countries, they are simply known as Doritos sabor queso or nacho. In some places, they are also called totopos sabor queso or chips sabor nacho, although the Doritos brand is the most recognized.
