PLANO, Texas, Feb. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Doritos, one of the flagship brands from PepsiCo's Frito-Lay division and a brand known for bringing some of the boldest flavors to the snack aisle, today announced the latest edition to its Dinamita rolled tortilla chip line: Doritos Dinamita Fiery Habanero flavored rolled tortilla chips. Available nationwide beginning this month, new Doritos Dinamita Fiery Habanero chips combine the flavorful spice of habanero peppers with hints of chili and red peppers in a unique rolled tortilla chip for the ultimate in spicy snacking experiences.
Though relatively small in size, measuring on average just one-to-two inches in length, the bell-shaped habanero pepper is mighty in flavor and spice. Arguably one of the hottest chili peppers available today, habaneros are known for having a complex fruity flavor that creates a degree of sweetness alongside their distinct level of heat. Habanero peppers continue to be a popular ingredient for a range of spicy dishes, hot sauces and snacks.
Introduced in spring 2012, Doritos Dinamita rolled tortilla chips are everything fans love about Doritos tortilla chips, only rolled into a unique shape to deliver extra crunch and flavor with a kick. In addition to the new Doritos Dinamita Fiery Habanero flavor, the Doritos Dinamita line also includes Chili Limon and Nacho Picoso flavors.
