Doritos pulled a shape-shifting stunt and people freaked out
By James Herring on Tuesday, February 4, 2025
Mess with the natural order of things, and people are bound to lose it.
A few weeks ago, Doritos did just that announcing they were ditching their iconic triangle shape.
Cue the chaos. Social media went into meltdown mode.
Confused snackers everywhere were asking the big questions: Is a Dorito still a Dorito if it’s not a triangle?
Even other brands got in on the action, questioning whether this was the end of the snack world as we know it.
Then, after ten days of speculation, conspiracy theories, and general internet panic, the truth dropped Doritos weren’t just messing around.
They were actually going square for real.
The reason? A team-up with the upcoming Minecraft Movie.
Because if there’s one thing Minecraft knows, it’s squares.
For the first time ever, Doritos is ditching the triangle for a blocky new look. And it’s not just for lucky snackers who manage to find one of these rare square Doritos – they can win up to £10,000.
Oh, and that’s not all. They’re dropping two limited-edition Minecraft Movie flavors, just to really drive home the fact that your Doritos are now part of the pixelated multiverse.
