A new late night junk food haunt in Toronto is serving up a delightful and possibly delirious snack option in the form of Doritos Smash Bags. The snack-dinner hybrid takes one's post-bar potato chip indulgence to the next level, infusing chip bags with meat and other embellishments.
The Doritos Smash Bags portion of Junked Food Co's menu features a variety of twists on the dish likely inspired by the Frito Pie. In addition to a vegetarian and poutine option, the Doritos Smash Bags come topped with dark chocolate chicken chili or Dr. Pepper pulled pork. The selection of meat compliments a Doritos bag filled with shredded cheese, lettuce, sour cream, chili sauce, tomato and black olives.
The Doritos Smash Bags are meant to be enjoyed fiercely and quickly, with little time to admire the delicious mess inside the bag.
