The build in detail
A standard Cheesy Gordita Crunch wraps a crunchy corn taco inside a pillowy flatbread with spicy ranch and a cheese layer. The Doritos build changes exactly one part: the inner taco becomes a Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco, so the crunch arrives dusted with Doritos seasoning. Everything else — flatbread, ranch, cheese — stays where it was. Taco Bell has sold this combination officially in limited runs; the rest of the time it is a two-item construction.
The estimate sums both complete items — the Gordita Crunch at 490 Cal and the Doritos Locos Taco at 170 Cal — for about $8.63, the second-highest estimate on the secret menu after the Nacho Fries BellGrande. Read it as the cost of the table-side method, where you buy both and nest one inside the other; a counter shell-swap, when the crew will do it, prices as a single item with a different shell. Either way, eat it promptly — the Doritos shell is the first part to go soft.
Availability
Sold officially in limited runs (a dataset entry exists for it); the DIY nest works whenever both parents are on the menu.
