Taco Bell Gives Into Cravings, Will Release Cool Ranch Doritos Taco A Day Early

Taco Bell decided to get an early start on giving everyone Cool Ranch breath.

Taco Bell decided to get an early start on giving everyone Cool Ranch breath.

The new Cool Ranch Doritos Taco Loco wasn’t supposed to start funking up the breath of American consumers until Thursday, but it looks like the folks at the Bell decided there was no point in waiting that long.

Last night, the fast food chain announced on its Facebook page, “We’re letting our fans buy Cool Ranch DLT a day early!”

Taco Bell said last summer that it would be rolling out more flavors of the Dorito-shell taco, which has sold hundreds of millions of units since debuting in spring 2012.

Cool Ranch seemed like the inevitable choice for a sequel, and that was confirmed by the company’s CEO in January.

To anyone who feels compelled to go out and buy (and presumably eat) a Cool Ranch taco on the first day, please feel free to take some photos and upload them to the Consumerist Flickr Pool or e-mail them (along with your impressions of the taste) to tips@consumerist.com.
