X-13D

I tried a bag of Doritos X-13D mystery flavor chips a while back. I thought they were more of an interesting marketing experiment than anything else (the package avoids telling you any flavor and implies some sort of flavor guessing contest). I thought it would be really cool if the food scientists at Doritos made up batches in different flavors and packaged them identically. Alas our two bags tasted the same. Tycho describes them thusly in today's Dorito related rant:

Somehow we ended up with a bag of X-13D superchips, some kind of mystery flavor, and if you want to know what the taste like imagine that a hamburger patty has fallen onto a cat, condiment side down. Believe me, it's worth buying a bag to verify this assertion.

Everyone in my regular lunch group took a taste. The consensus was that they tasted like McDonald's Cheeseburgers complete with processed cheese, onion, mustard, pickle, ketchup, and unidentifiable meat. Mmm... unidentifiable McDs meat... Whether felines are involved would probably depend on your opinion of McDonald's palatability.
