Do you like to live dangerously? Do you like pulling on some kind of leather clothes and tearing wheels on your pig? Do you enjoy the idea of jumping into a cleft filled with sharp objects? Well, then I have a slide for you. Doritos Roulette will return to Walmart stores across the country from April 12, Brand Eat reports.
What is Doritos Roulette, and why is it so dangerous? The bag contains a mixture of two identical tortilla chips, but some of the chips are ordinary oil chips from Doritos Nacho Cheese, while about one in six chips is a “fiery” version measuring 78,000 units on the Scoville scale, or 10 times warmer than the average jalapeño. Every slice looks exactly the same, so there is no way to know which slice you are going to eat. Oh, the adrenaline!
Doritos Roulette has been around since 2014; in fact, when the promotion started, Doritos Canada invited fans to take pictures of themselves eating the hot chips and posting their #burnselfies, which led to some of my personal favorite content. The slide also has a controversial legacy. Our friends at sister site Kotaku was not happy with the chips and wrote: ‘Doritos Roulette is presented as a fun thing, a kind of game that you can play with your friends, in the same way as buying a bunch of jelly donuts and it with to fill a pickle flavor. ‘ The slides were even banned at a British school after they allegedly caused an asthma student to stop breathing after she ‘complained of a serious burn in her throat’ and ‘hit four milk goats’ The Independent report. If you want to take part in the action, you’ll have more power – the chips are available in nine ounce bags for about $ 3.
