The Flame-Grilled Whopper [Doritos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doritos-chilli-heatwave-chicken-fries) snack chips are a new collaboration snack being launched in the UK to offer snackers with an alternative way to enjoy the flavor of the namesake QSR burger from [Burger King](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flamin-hot-chicken-fries). The snack features the recognizable form of [Doritos tortilla chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doritos-flamin-hot-koreanstyle-bbq) and have been covered in flavoring to mimic the taste of the Original Whopper. The snack is suitable for vegetarians and has a non-HFSS recipe to make it great for consumers to enjoy as part of a balanced diet.

UK Marketing Director at Doritos Lee-Teng Houston spoke on the Flame-Grilled Whopper Doritos snack chips saying, "Our shoppers are continually looking for bolder flavours and taste experiences – and this is exactly what we are giving them. The new flavour adds excitement and innovation to the category, and we expect it will fly off the shelves.”
