From USA Today:

Pepsi tests Doritos-flavored Mountain Dew

The day Doritos and Mountain Dew fans (well, maybe a few, at least) have long hoped for has finally arrived.

It may seem like an strange combination, but PepsiCo has confirmed a report — which first surfaced on Reddit — that it is experimenting with a new Mountain Dew flavor that incorporates the nacho cheese-flavored chip.

The result? Dewitos.

In a statement provided to USA TODAY Network and other news organizations, a Mountain Dew spokesperson said: "We are always testing out new flavors of Mountain Dew, and giving our fans a voice in helping decide on the next new product has always been important to us. We opened up the DEW flavor vault and gave students a chance to try this Doritos-inspired flavor as part of a small program at colleges and universities."

No indications yet of when, or whether, Dewitos will actually be available in stores.

And how does it taste? Here's the verdict from the Reddit user (a Kent State freshman whose real name is Steve Barnes, according to The Atlantic) who broke the news: "It honestly wasn't that disgusting."

Why?

I've never tasted Mountain Dew. I surely wouldn't want to taste this one.

Hi Gato

It doesn't appeal to me at all, but it sounds like something they would sell at Taco Bell. After the bar closes, the 2am taco run...since they sell Mtn Dew and Doritos, eliminates a step LOL! It's the perfect beverage. Yuck!

Actually I could see that going over big in Colorado and Washington!

Stephen Colbert suggested that the advertising tagline for this product should be: ""It's like throwing up in your mouth a little.""

Now that's truth in advertising.
