I found something close to the bacon flavored snack but it's probably doesn't tast as good as the one frito lay used to make. They are called Johnny's bacon tasty's. Atleast the look the same to me.

Everyone asking about the Bacon Flavored snack chip. I remember them well, here is a link to as close as I can find to what they looked like. However, I KNOW Frito Lay made a version of this, I just wish I could find them now!!!

PLLLLLLLEASE bring back the Extreme Bold BBQ Doritos. When I could no longer find them I boycotted Doritos for a bit I was soooo mad.

I remember my grandmother introduced me to Ruffles RANCH potato chips when I was a little girl and it was the best chips I have ever had. A close second was "The Works" Ruffles but nothing can compare to the Ranch Ruffles. I mentioned the chips to a group of friends the other day and they all agree. We wish they would come back!!!

3D Doritos were the best hands down!

I remember the bacon flavored chips too!
Also, I would LOVE it if y'all would bring back the old Taco flavored Dorito's from the mid-1970s. There's a similar version that was in the mixed bags that came out recently, but it's more spicy hot. The 1970s Taco flavor was just really flavorful, heavy on the cumin and soooo good. When I lived in Atlanta in mid-1990s, they were re-introduced as a test product and I was in Heaven! It didn't catch on, though. Please bring this flavor profile back in Doritos!

I also add my vote and request to those who have asked for Dorito's 3D! I LOVED the nacho flavor - could plow through a bag of those in record time. They were addictive!

Bring back the old school packaging for Cheetos! It looked cool and the cheetah is getting old.

the bacon snacks were called bacon-ets i believe and i think they were made by nabisco but whoever made them they were the best chip ever ( rated right up there with the willy wonka super skrunch bar )

what ever happened to the FritoLay green onion dip mix? It was simply the best and my sister and I cant find it anywhere. We have even asked our local grocers and Walmart if they can stock it..and we were told no... : (
My aunt introduced us to this dip in the 70's and we fell in love...its very addictive with its unique taste and we have tried others but there are simply no substitutions!!!! Now we are having green onion dip withdrawals....please save us..... LOL

When I was a kid growing up in seattle wa my granny used to get this snack mix called "MERRY MIX". This was in the late 70s thru the late 80s. Miss that stuff. Does anyone remember MERRY MIX

Doritos Extreme Bold BBQ chips were the best chips ever. I am so happy to know that several other people share my enthusiasm for them!! PLEASE bring them back!!

All three of you were correct about the bacon flavored chips. It had a real nice crisp bacon flavored taste made out of cornmeal. Made to look just like bacon and it had more of a texture like muncho's. Those were my favorite chips in the 70's which I think they only sold for aprox. 2 years and as I grew older I just forgot about them. The best chips ever. Maybe they were not made from Frito Lay..because I could never get a right answer about them...so, I guess we have a quite a few people on the same page...For some reason Beatle Bailey comes to mind..like they were on front of the bag ?

They were called Bacon Nips by Frito Lay. You can google the commercial.

PLEASE bring back Doritos Bold BBQ to Virginia & across the map! They were the best doritos ever!! I think the company in a whole would see a big increase in sales if this were to happen..not to mention a lot of happy consumers !

Ranch Ruffles were soooo great... I literally cried when they were pulled off the shelves... I would drive to small town stores to find them until they were all gone.
I agree with the previous posters, please bring them back!
Posted by: Kevin | November 30, 2011 at 08:37 AM
I think I have found an alternative to the Ranch Ruffles that were so great! Try Kettle Brand Zesty Ranch... They taste really similar to what I remember these tasting like. Enjoy!
Posted by: Chris | January 10, 2012 at 01:43 PM
Thank you Shellee Aldrich ! That's the chips...Maybe we should get some type of a list going and send it to Frito Lay...Maybe they will bring them back.
