Are more Dorito-flavored foods on the way?

In an interview, Buffalo Wild Wings CEO Sally Smith that she visited PepsiCo's food innovation lab in New York and was shown several dishes the chain might put on its menu. Ideas included Doritos as a crunchy topping for wings or tenders, or even just offering potato chips as a side dish.

Additionally, Smith said she was shown salad dressings and sandwich and chicken wing sauces that incorporate PepsiCo's sodas, including Mountain Dew.

A representative for Pizza Hut also told the AP the chain has looked at ways to use Frito-Lay snacks in its menu. Pizza Hut is owned by Yum Brands, which owns Taco Bell and KFC as well. The restaurant chains were owned by PepsiCo until being spun off in 1997.

I've used potato chips, Doritos, etc. as breading for baked chicken for years. Perhaps KFC will try that...

I have tried the doritos tacos at Taco Bell and I like it. I use doritos at home frequently for more than just eating from the bag. They have a nice flavor blend and make for some tasty and intereting toppings and coatings.
