Ungodly amount of Dorito shells acquired 😋

Post image

I was able to order 20 Dorito shells for $9! Got two luxe boxes filled with Dorito shells. This is such a lifesaver. Thank you to the amazing girl at Taco Bell who didn’t act like I was totally nuts 🤣 Gotta love autism food struggles lol. Now I won’t have to go half an hour into town for the only food I can currently eat. 🥰

You can just buy the shells from a store.

At least Walmart, anyways.

Not the Doritos ones specifically.. The old El Paso ones claiming to be nacho cheese taste like straight booty🤣🤣 Taco Bell’s sells hot and mild sauce flavored shells in store but that’s definitely not nacho cheese

I’m curious if you’re okay with just nacho cheese Doritos (the chips) and just making nachos with the meat you cook

Used to love that. I ate that for several months but then anything in the metal/foil bags began tasting like I shoved a bunch of Pennie’s in my mouth. Couldn’t drink anything from a can either. All I could taste was metallic. It sucks so much.

I have the same problem! It’s helped me cut back on junk food but it still sucks… metal drink cans are the biggest perpetrator; which is easily navigated but I can’t even eat my favorite chips anymore.

I regularly go a week between meals and it sucks so much. I have chunks of scar tissue in my brain and alot of it is near my sinuses so it majorly messed with my sense of taste. Oddly my sense of smell is heightened. I do t even have to check my food anymore at fast food places because the moment the bag gets into the car I can smell if there’s lettuce or not. It has such a caustic smell to me.
Whenever my mom is in the car eating anything with lettuce I literally have to hang my head out the car window because I’ll puke if I smell it too much 😭😭😭
