Mountain Dew Is Apparently Testing a Doritos-Flavored Soda

The image above lit up Twitter and Reddit overnight, purportedly coming from a testing event held at Kent State University (which has a pre-existing relationship with Pepsi and Mountain Dew). The original poster, “joes_nipples,” answered a lot of questions about the product named “DEWitos,” most notably…
It honestly wasn’t that disgusting. It tasted like orange with a doritos after taste. It tasted like straight doritos afterwards though. Weirdest thing I’ve ever drunken.
He added that lemon-ginger, mango-habanero and rainbow sherbet were among other flavors they were testing.
This isn’t the first crossover: Doritos had a “mystery flavor” a while back that was meant to be Mountain Dew, and of course both are staples of Taco Bell. If this new synergy takes off, it won’t matter if the Dew destroys all your teeth – you can still “enjoy” Doritos. You can also consume both Doritos and Dew without ever taking your hands off a game controller – or your private parts. Word of warning, though: when you get to the Mountain Dew flavor that tastes like a blueberry pie dessert, leave that one be. The Wonka factory hasn’t gotten it quite right yet.
Gimme a holler when they start testing “Mountain Dew Intravenous.” It’ll happen in our lifetimes.
