Doritos Releases New Bold Flavor Inspired By A Discontinued Fan-Favorite

Doritos has just released a new chip flavor aimed at fans of cheeseburgers with the new Late Night Sizzlin’ Cheeseburger and is inspired by a flavor that was previously discontinued. According to EatThis,NotThat!, the new chips are exclusively available now at Kroger supermarkets and are described by Doritos as “Late night flavors. One bold crunch” labeled on the bag.

Doritos originally rolled out All Nighter Cheeseburgers Doritos for almost a year, but discontinued them in 2010 according to an article in Parade. Several social media posters were excited about the new chips with one Instagrammer saying “I remember when they had these in 2010. So good” and another adding “My dreams do come true! This was my absolute favorite in high school.”

Late Night Sizzlin’ Cheeseburger chips contain 150 calories per serving and join several new Doritos products in stores. The Doritos Dinamita line of chips was introduced in January of this year with four flavors joining the original Chile Limón chips. These new flavors are Flamin’ Hot Queso, Smoky Chile Queso, Tangy Fiery Lime, and Hot Honey Mustard. Chile Limón and Flamin’ Hot Queso are packaged in classic rolled tortilla chip shape and Smoky Chile Queso, Tangy Fiery Lime, and Hot Honey Mustard come in a new stick shape.

I remember when Doritos released their "condiment" chips. Remember Ketchup and Mustard?

Spring is officially here. Though today it doesn't feel quite like it. But that warm weather is coming, and the flowers are blooming. So what is a better spring activity than getting out and enjoying both of those things at some of the botanical gardens in North Carolina. Sure you can take a walk around the neighborhood or visit a park. But why not visit one of the numerous gardens our state has to offer. While this is far from an all encompassing list it does include 7 botanical gardens in North Carolina you can visit this spring.

The vast majority of these places I have personally visited, and the remaining few come highly recommended. But first what exactly is a botanical garden? You've probably heard the term but if you're like me you may not know exactly what it refers to. According to UNC Charlotte (spoiler alert they are included on this list) a botanical garden is "a purposeful collection of plants grown for more than just their beauty." They go on to say that, "botanical gardens hold curated collections of plants for inventory, education, conservation, and research."

So it's no surprise that many, though not all, of the botanical gardens in North Carolina included on this list are part of universities. Whether you want to just take a relaxing stroll to enjoy the plants, take photos, or are more interested in the individual species, or perhaps want to get inspiration for your own yard or garden the places on this list are wonderful spots to spend the day.

And considering there are always different flowers blooming, one visit is far from enough to fully experience them. So keep reading to see 7 botanical gardens in North Carolina to visit this spring and get to planning your visit perhaps for this weekend.
