Burger King is reportedly testing out a new dish that features cheesy chips coated in crunchy Doritos crumbs. The dish is apparently borrowed from 7-Eleven's 'Doritos Loaded' snack, which featured cheese-filled nuggets encrusted in Doritos. While the 7-Eleven dish proved to be less popular than anticipated, Burger King is now looking to use the same product in its own stores.
The Burger King version of the cheesy chip will be available at a handful of Burger King test stores, some of which are in the New York area. According to recent reports, the Burger King Dorito-fy is exactly the same as the 7-Eleven dish, which has caused confusion among some customers. While it is unusual for a convenience-store product to move to a fast-food restaurant, the Dorito-fy could find a new home on the Burger King menu.
