The idea of a flavored wrap isn't too unusual. Spinach and sun-dried tomato wraps, both of which are little more than colorful flour tortillas, have been popular for quite some time, perhaps even gaining in popularity as people seem to opt for soft tacos over the crunchy variety. But Old El Paso is launching some flavored hard taco shells in an attempt to capture some new interest in the crunchy shells. The shells come in Salsa and Nacho flavors and are designed with a slightly flat bottom that allows them to stand upright on their own, so they're easier to fill and serve.
Plain corn and flour tortillas will still be my favorites, but if you really like crunchy shells, this could be a nice chage from tradition.

Yuck. If you want to eat Doritos, eat Doritos. If you want to have dinner, cook it.

I agree with Joe. I actually like the crisp shell for my homemade tacos, but I would never try the flavored ones. They sound disgusting.

Actually, the flavor is not coated on, but in the shell. They are actually very pleasant.
