Madden NFL Themed Doritos!!!

Posted: Wednesday, August 11, 2010 by Admiral Snuggles in Labels: , , ,

You're not gonna believe this they made Doritos based off the Madden 2011 video game. Yes they did. Hell yes!!! I get Madden every year for my Xbox 360 because I'm a real sucker so when I got the Sunday ads this week I flipped through trying to decide where I wanted to buy Madden this year. Best Buy was having a buy Madden get a game half off deal, K-mart was giving money off another EA sports game purchase, Wal-Mart was giving deodorant and a gift card, and Target was giving away a gift card and fucking Madden themed Doritos. The choice was now clear I would be getting my copy of Madden from Target. Although I was tempted to finally be able to say that I just bought Madden and that my armpits are dry.

Anyway,I bought Madden and got my Doritos. SO are these Doritos man enough to hang out on the Grid Iron with the other Dorito flavors? Let's find out.

1st let's take a look at "Stadium Nacho"



Hmm...Doritos already has the classic nacho cheese flavor, so how do make a flavor like that also taste like a stadium? There are many possibilities and direction they could go with this. Like making the chips actually taste like concrete, metal, or any other material used to build a stadium. Thankfully the chips don't taste like a stadium. I assume they're going for nacho cheese dip with a hint of jalapeno taste that they usually sell at sporting events. I guess I can taste a hint of jalapeno, but they taste more like a nacho/cool ranch hybrid. They also look pretty identical to cool ranch Doritos. I'd definitely give these a solid recommendation.

Now, "Tailgater BBQ"

The taste real bbquey. I know that's not a real word but that's really the best thing that I could type to describe them. They have a real strong smokey flavor with an almost mesquite like taste with an evasive sweetness. I thought maybe these were a reimagining of the delicious smokey cheddar BBQ of days past but no such luck there is no cheese taste on these chips. Overall not bad, but not my favorite.

It's also worth noting that each bag comes printed with a 9-digit code on the back of the bag to redeem excluse Madden Ultimate Team cards for use in Madden 11. So yeah, there's that.

These will probably only be around for a limited time so get up and buy some then sit back down and eat them.

Doritios 2nd Degree Burn Fiery Buffalo Review

So I went to Sheetz the other night for some grub and let's just say I really embarrassed myself. I mean like....REALLY embarrassed myself. I won't say what all I ordered but I really hate ordering food from Sheetz. I mean where do they get off having such a wide variety of food? I mean if I'm real hungry and go to Taco Bell eventually I'm gonna overdose on meat and tortillas, but at Sheetz you can always add an order of macaroni bites to that order......bastards. So anyway, after I ordered a Thanksgiving dinner worth food I noticed something. Something that was gonna really rock my butt off. DORITOS 2nd Degree Burn Fiery Buffalo.

I haven't seen this particular flavor of doritos before, but apparently these are just one of the three new flavors along with 1st Degree Burn Blazin Jalapeno and 3rd Degree Burn Scorchin Habenero. Now I usually handle spicy food pretty well. Not to sound cocky but I did eat 24 blazing wings at Bw3s. So basically I'm like Santa Clause. So I purchased a bag for the very affordable price of 99 cents and took them home to try. I've been looking for a new hot dorito ever since they stopped producing "Spicy Nacho Doritos" and the buffalo/ranch doritos while good weren't hot enough for me. Upon opening the bag I was greeted to an intense smell of spices. I also examined the chips thoroughly and noticed that they look pretty much identical to regular doritos.


Sorry for my shitty camera. So that's what they look like, but how do they taste? Well these fuckers are hot. Like REAL hot. They are tear inducing, volcano out the butt hot. I ate like five and had to drink three bottles of water just to cool down. Maybe I sound like a wuss but that's the truth. Other than that I guess they taste pretty good they have a good hot taste but it's definitely overwhelming. If you're into hot and spicy foods check them out. And if you're man enough let us know how the 3rd Degree Scorchin Habenero go.


wink* hahaha

Comic Book Stockpile!!!

Like I mentioned before mycomicshop.com is the place to go if you're into comic books. I recently made a purchase of several comics that I was behind on. What's weird about me is that I usually don't by classic comic books based on "classic comic book characters" like Batman, Spider-man, Superman, X-Men or any comic in the compound man or men variety. I mean I like all those characters but I go for the more "Holy Shit!, they made a comic out of that" variety, like "Die Hard: Year One"

Yeah, they finally came out with a comic book based on Die Hard. These are some variant covers I didn't have and some of the last issues. I haven't read past the volume one graphic novel, so I might have to read these to find out how John McClane handled his first year as a cop. Hopefully these issues will make up for the severe lack of Ellis the other issues had.


Terminator 2029 tells the story of how John Conner sent Kyle Reese back in time to protect and have sex with his mom. These were always sold out when I checked the comic stores, so I was finally able to get this 3 issue set. They're pretty good, so if your into Terminator, comics, or a man traveling through time to have sex with your mom I'd say check it out. And best of all they don't have variant covers. I'm a real sucker for variant covers.

The new Robocop comic series from Dynamite takes place right after the events of the 1st Robocop, it might even completely ignore the events of the other movies. So I'm not sure if Robocop ever flew with that jet pack or fought those robot karate dudes. This series tries to keeps the dark humor and violence of the 1st movie and so far it's pretty good. These are a bunch of variant covers. Damn variant covers.

And finally...

I'll buy any movie tie-in product. It's a disease. I can't wait for the new "Predators" movies, so I bought these prequel comics. They aren't that great. They're short and shallowly written. Each issue contains 2 seperate stories, a back story for each Adrien Brody and Laurence Fishburne's characters. I hope the movie is better than this. There's also a severe lack of Dutch and Danny Glover. Oh, it is pretty bloody...so that has to count for something.

MyComicShop.com has the goods!

I've been collecting comics for years even though I hardly ever read them. I'm very afraid I'm going to damage them even though they most likely will never be worth anything, but you can never be too sure. Like I said in our article on "Die Hard: Year One" you never know if someday the key to saving the world will be a pristine copy of "Welcome Back Kotter" issue one. With that being said I still buy and collect comics. Usually I wait till the graphic novels are released before I read the stories but if I really need go to the bathroom and the graphic novel isn't out yet I'll read the comic.

We have a few local comic books shops in my area that I go to, but one is filled with a bunch of guys playing "Magic the Gathering" and the other is owned by a scary old guy and his cat. I'm also pretty sure that the guy lives there and that the cat is peeing on his comics. I usually avoid the scary guy/cat store. So I've been going to the other store, but I've become frustrated because their new comics are usually all damaged by the time I go to stock up. That and I'm tired of hearing the Magic nerds talk about their "Level 9 invisibility cloaks". So I've tried getting some comics online.

I checked out a few comic sites and even bought from some of them but my comics are always delivered damaged and with out plastic and boarding. Finally I found mycomicshop.com They have an amazing selection of pretty much any comic you want. You can choose from a variety of issues and conditions and they'll even board each comic for 25 cents an issue. You can also subscribe to a comic and they'll send them to you as they arrive. Best of of all they securely package all of their orders with cardboard and plastic, unlike the other sites.

So if your into comics, I'd recommend www.mycomicshop.com

Pretzel M&M's and the return of the orange M&M guy!

I've seen a lot of shit in my life. Some of it good and some of it not so good. But one of the most troubling and emotionally scarring moments of my life was when I realized that they had stopped selling Crispy m&m's.

Crispy m&m's were simply m&m's with a small saucer shaped cracker/cookie in the middle almost like a rice krispie, the bottom line is that they were delicious. But they were taken away from us too soon, although there are rumors of them still being available in other countries like Australia.......lucky bastards. Cripsy m&m's also introduced us to the "Orange" spokescandy.

Now we all know that "The Red M&M" is the one with an attitude and that "The Yellow Peanut M&M" is the retarded one, but what's "The Orange M&M" all about. I mean what's his deal? Well he's the paranoid M&M. I mean just look how startled he is. The reason he's so paranoid is because everyone wants to eat him because he is so delicious. Even the other m&m's! He also has the honor of almost being eaten by Halle Berry. I mean people die from horrible things all the time being eaten by Halle Berry isn't so bad in comparison. In one commercial Diedrich Bader ate his whole fucking family! You're damn right he's paranoid. Well anyway, Crispy m&m's went off the shelves and so did the Mr. Orange M&M.


Until..............

They made M&M's with fucking pretzels in them! THERE ARE PRETZELS IN THEM DAMMIT! They aren't crispy m&m's but they're the next best thing and even better they brought The Orange M&M back to be their spokescandy. Now you may be thinking "Now wait a second I thought he was a crispy m&m, how can this be the same orange m&m?" Well smartypants, according to the commercial they surgically removed the cookie out of him and replaced it with a pretzel. So there you go!



The candy itself is actually really good. The m&m's are bigger than normal, almost the size of a peanut m&m with a large piece of pretzel in the center. Basically it boils down to this, chocolate + pretzel = good. It's basic science and it applies to other things like chocolate+chicken and milk+ spaghetti sauce. At the moment I can only really find them at Wal-Mart and Sam's club. So do yourself a favor and go out to one of those stores and buy yourself a pack actually buy a whole box. But most of all it's good to have you back Orange M&M......it's good to have you back.
