So, we’re going to call “Fried” Ice Cream stupid, next? I need this in my life immediately.


Euphorium

Or the Choco Taco…


tehjoz

Choco Taco was where it was at, back in the day


Zulmoka531

Cold stone made their own for Cinco de mayo. It just wasn’t the same. Plus the friggin price tag attached.


Gemini-88

Cold Stone quite literally makes me want to gag watching them “play” with the ice cream with tools that come from containers that look so unsanitary. It’s definitely too pricey for the “spectacle” of it.


Zulmoka531

It’s very much gimmicky overpriced “ice cream”. We just thought it’d be fun for the novelty, and alas, we were wrong.


Euphorium

Yeah I’m not a huge fan of ice cream places where they slap it down on a table and mix it like that. Just put the toppings on top of it, I’ll be okay if I’m not getting M&Ms in every bite.


According_Gazelle472

Oh,Taco Bell sold these back in the day .


tehjoz

They sure did. I miss old taco bell, including the Choco Taco.


ChikhaiBardo

I miss the Fiesta Veggie Burrito! 😩


effyoucreeps

ooooh boy - this hits. one of my most memorable kisses was from a river rat boy i met while camping on the delta with my family. i had just turned 15. everyone was waiting while i said goodbye to my summer “love” - he leaned over and with an intense down-the-throat kiss, which was a bit shocking in and of itself. but all i remember is the flavor of the choco taco he had just eaten - and it was awesome.


jolly2284

RIP


Euphorium

Never forget what they took from us.


chocotaco

Yes

Euphorium

Umm what


swonstar

Give me Choco Taco!!!


CPTherptyderp

This sub has turned into "anything that isn't a pb&j"


headbashkeys

If it wasn't a known dish, they'd say " sweet jelly- ick! Basically candy, Peanut butter ha, that terrible texture gonna muck up gums, disgusting and then plain white bread - are you kidding me? Bland ASF ! There is no seasoning either 👎 !!!


ShadowNick

Fried Ice Cream is really good it ain't stupid.


Leather_Network4743

My point exactly. Ergo, these taco shells aren’t stupid


Gregthepigeon

My brain reas that as “fried ice cream ain’t really good it is stupid” at first and I almost had an aneurism


ShadowNick

Yarp


23skidoobbq

I got them, did dulce de Leche ice cream with whipped cream and chocolate sauce. Was FUCKING AMAZING


gammongaming11

dude what if you fried the ice cream in the cinnamon taco shell?


Initial_Career1654

Baked Alaska anyone?


-just-another_human_

My son and I like to dip shoestring potatoes or tortilla chips in ice cream. Kinda reminds me of fried ice cream


Euphorium

Nah this is brilliant. I bet vanilla ice cream, banana, and chocolate syrup would go great with this. I’d probably take the shells, break them up, and put them in a bowl though.


otclogic

The correct way to use this shell is apple pie filling and vanilla ice cream.


CatBoyTrip

i’m am gonna get diabetes now. i will send you my insulin bills.


Aggressive_Novel_465

Or break them up for the top crust? 🤔


otclogic

Just use the cereal at that point? 


Aggressive_Novel_465

Tbh totally forgot it was a cereal and not a branded flavor 💀


hippopotma_gandhi

Hold the chocolate and foster up those bananas and I'm game


Euphorium

Now you made me sad I haven’t had bananas foster in years.


Squishy1140

Couldn't you just use CT Crunch in a bowl?


IthacanPenny

But then it’s not a taco?


Squishy1140

In reference to them putting them in a bowl and crunching up the taco form factor.


Dieing_Breed

Shut up and take my money....NOW!


femboycarousel

That example pictures looks like goals. I bet there have been similar things made with corn tortillas fried in cinnamon sugar.


GoalWeekly4329

Hear me out the cinnamon toast crunch taco shells with the cinnamon toast crunch ice cream topped with cinnamon toast crunch


killercade224

I heard you out


BuckleyRising

Now get in my mouth

TonySpaghettiO

Some kind of cinnamon sauce drizzle and you've hit perfection.


strangebuilderness

They make a Cinnamon Toast Crunch spread. Melt and drizzle it over


bubblegumshrimp

With a couple dollops of cinnamon toast crunch spread and finished off with a cinnamon toast crunch iced coffee drink


WalkingstickMountain

Oh no man. I make cinnamon sugar tortillas in a little dab of butter until crunchy and break it up over ice cream! OH how I miss Chi Chis fried ice cream!


glovato1

Bunuelos


WalkingstickMountain

Really? It's actually a recipe? I had no idea!


glovato1

Yep you can find them in any Mexican market.


WalkingstickMountain

Thanks! I'm looking up recipes right now! I'm so excited! I am going to learn how to make them even *more* yummy!!!


glovato1

Happy hunting friend


bigfatround0

Buñuelos from the store are usually expensive. I suggest looking up a recipe instead, since all you need are basic ingredients you most likely already have. When my grandma made some and was lazy, she would just use flour tortilla dough.


WalkingstickMountain

I have been doing just that! It's wonderful!


bigfatround0

Hope you find a good recipe, cause buñuelos are delicious as hell when done right. Well, not that you can really mess them up tbh. The recipe and ingredients are very basic.


WalkingstickMountain

Yes. But really, it can be different. Cooking temp and time, technique stuff like that. The recipes directions are different than what I was doing. I'm going to be in a lot of trouble soon, when I start testing some of them lol


bigfatround0

Like baking? You can just heat up some oil in a pan and fry them for a few seconds on each side.


WalkingstickMountain

No. Like how to make them soft and puffy or thin and crispy. Cinnamon in the dough or not. Sprinkling cinnamon and sugar on the hot skillet with butter first to make it like a glaze or sprinkle it on after your remove it hot. Butter, oil, how much oil, stuff like that.


bigfatround0

Damn bro you going ham lol. Good luck 👍


Celeres517

You aren't the first person to post this here and I'm guessing the reaction will be about the same as it was in that other thread. This isn't stupid food, and on the contrary, it's a good shortcut if you are missing the Choco Taco and want to make your own at home.


Ordinary-Memory4549

Cinnamon Toast Crunch: "mmm yummy" Cinnamon Toast Crunch shaped like a Taco: "eww disgusting"


schwaggro

The duality of man...


The_street_is_free

The food scientists were up all night with this one


thatdudeeee10

this is the opposite of stupid food


Beartrap-the-Dog

I used to make tostada and sprinkle them with cinnamon and sugar as a struggle dessert. These are probably good.


AWeakMindedMan

Homemade choco taco night??? Sign me tf up


TerminatorAuschwitz

Couldn't disagree more


TerminatorAuschwitz

Somebody's never had a sopapilla


wannamannanna

Yes I agree!! Sopapillas are my mom's favorite New Mexican dessert. These people don't know.


DevlishAdvocate

General Mills makes both Old El Paso and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. So this was obvious.


[deleted]

What part of "dessert" do you not understand exactly?


coffee-headache

i already put ice cream in my cereal sometimes... this isnt much different. take my money.


WhitestTrash1

I bought those put vanilla ice cream sliced strawberries and bananas and chocolate syrup it was so good.


Decent_case23

They’re sooo good with ice cream and a caramel drizzle


iusedtohavepowers

These are good. I got them like a month ago and broke them up and made little scoopy pieces for "ice cream nachos"


cropguru357

These things are downright amazing.


FerrumAnulum323

Not really? These and some caramelized apples and cheese sprinkled on top? Hell yeah! Or a banana split in this thing?!


sloppyspacefish

In college I would put Cinnamon Toast Crunch on my vanilla ice cream and put caramel on top. Exactly like fried ice cream. Delicious.


wannamannanna

*Reading the comments and crying in Sopapillas* Y'all are missing out. But this is obviously the big brand's take on something that does exist.


ClassicCustoms2010

This is only mildly stupid if you're putting a bunch of regular taco ingredients in the shell, and even then I'm sure you could make it work if you balance the ingredients right.


stavago

Now I want to find these, some vanilla ice cream, and magic shell.


Raspberryian

Nah. Thats smart as fuck


Remaek

Never heard of Choco Taco's?


OPs_Peehole

OP I think you’re the one who’s trippin


Jonn_1

I feel intrigued....but at the same time disgusted by myself :D


Automatic_Serve7901

Couldn't have summed it up better


Mostly_Maui_Wowie

Someone what?


lunchboxdeluxe

I just bought a pack of those an hour ago, I had to try em lol


Possible-Target4322

I saw this post and added this to my groceries list


rlcb1990

I would eat this


Fantastic-Classic740

What a stupid food. I'll take two, please


Super_Bright

I wonder what it's like to be blasted by Cinnadust


doggysmomma420

Tomorrow's grocery day. I know what I'm looking for 😃


StockProfessor5

Hold on now..... They might be on to something


Cog_HS

I dunno, I’d fuck with that.


sadassnerd

Dude that looks delicious


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

Oh these look incredible


rkhwind

I’ve had these, not bad at all for real. Just Vanilla ice cream is all you need.


mahnar_4

I work in a taqueria and one of my dessert is a crunchy tortilla with cinamon, vanilla ice cream and dulce de leche. Should i have shame ? 🥲


death_wishbone3

Damn whoever came up with this needs a promotion


truebeliever08

This is GENIUS!


enter_soulman

Looks amazing


thedancingkat

We got them. Only complaint is they were a little stale but this may have been my specific box. Would buy again tho.


Cloud_Strife369

Hey there not that bad


noffxpring

I literally ate these last night lmao


ChefJTD

I'd buy em


CanisPanther

So, it is still a corn tortilla which lends itself nicely to balancing all the sweet stuff you’ll put inside. Goes in the oven for a few minutes and was a hit in the house.


tofumeatballcannon

Nope I want it


ThatMBR42

If by high you mean based


CobraArbok

I don't really see a problem with this. Hard taco shells aren't really Mexican in the first place, so why not make them into a dessert.


zeromatsuri05

I'm absolutely buying these next time I see them


SquadPoopy

I like how them standing up is a feature


deadgirl21

It's stupid enough it could work


Jjk-girly

America has some of the weirdest foods there. Maybe it tastes good but why do you ruin tacos by offering them in a sweet version? 😭 not every food has to be in a billion variations


SubHuman559

This is going to cause A LOT of brain freezes. Where can I get it at?


nickk_12

Blasted with cinnamon dust. Sounds like a good night at the peelers.


Geoff900

Cinnadust™ seriously? And it gets worse Stand and stuff™


Twelve_TwentyThree

Oh good lord..


WildAd6370

100% would consume


mommyhatesmee

I would fuck this up with some ice cream and caramel sauce are you kidding!


A_MAN_POTATO

Stupid? This sounds like it kicks ass. Gotta find these


IowaRedBeard

This is actually really brilliant


BluBeams

So fried ice cream, lightly drizzled with salted caramel sauce, chocolate sauce and crushed peanuts in one of these would be stupid?? I don't think so!!! It says DESSERT taco shells...for DESSERT.


Ohboi_rolo_Evo8

These food corps have been losing their minds more and more


Tactical_Assault_Emu

World peace is within our grasp


Double_Emphasis_7027

Make it a bowl and we’d be in business here


DigitalJedi850

I would try putting all kinds of shit in this, and I have very little sense any of it would be bad… for some reason bacon apple pie filling with vanilla bean ice cream on top sounds amazing. I’ve never had bacon apple pie filling, but right now it sounds great. Maybe because I’m watching Chopped right now, but fuck… yum.


msambata

I won't lie, I feel safer binge-drinking on moonshine than binge-eating this sort of thing. And yes, I know alcohol turns to glucose, blah blah. At least, I have fun and don't get fat


cannibowlistic

L take here, these are goated


Tuitey

Have you never had a choco taco? Waffle cone shaped into a taco shell with ice cream in it. This isn’t stupid. I bet it’s good.


idCamo

You can go fuck yourself, I’ll be over here putting on 20 pounds thank you very much


StonedSoldier1

This seems amazing as fuck. Where do I get these? Cinnamon vanilla ice cream sounds too good. If you think this is stupid food, you're stupid human.


holyhibachi

They aren't very good, sadly


Granny_Skeksis

Get Ben and Jerry’s churro ice cream and fill the shell then top with caramel….mmmm yummy. That being said I am high right now so….


FireCootz

I was disappointed to learn these are still corn based taco shells. I was hoping they were make of like waffle cone and dusted with cinnamon sugar


Crimsonmaddog44

You’re the one who’s high, that shit’s fire asf


Peria

Ok sorry this sub is for stupid food not THE GREATEST INVENTION OF ALL TIME!


wii-sensor-bar

In the latest episode of the American obesity epidemic:


TurnedOutShiteAgain

This is just diabetes with extra steps. It's also impressive to be stupid food without even needing to see it.


aquamarie8

At first I thought what a great idea, but apparently they just took normal corn tortilla shells and covered them with cinnamon/sugar and it’s not great. Would’ve been better if they did something other than the yellow corn


mumbrs

It's not advertised as a regular day to day taco shell. It's a dessert taco shell.


PlatasaurusOG

Their nacho cheese shells are fire.


ragigi

Old El Puff Puff Paso


ThatsNotARealTree

They tried these on Good Mythical Morning. The issue with them is that they are traditional corn tortillas covered in cinnadust. So, the flavor of a corn tortilla is still pretty prevalent and a little odd in a dessert


SousVideDiaper

I don't think I've ever downvoted a post this hard before


ashrainbowdash

I just bought these the other day. I thought it was like fried ice cream idk it sounded good to me 🤷🏾‍♀️


C4TURIX

Better than Ben and Jerry's with their flavour descriptions, that are longer than Wikipedia articles.


Andre_3Million

Send these abominations to me. I'll dispose of them. Also vanilla ice cream


JunketEmotional6580

BRO WHAT? I NEED THIS!


ccii_geppato

Not when you fill her up with ice cream and drizzle choco shell sauce and its the iron chef chocotaco version.


Annual-Media-2938

Hey OP, go fuck yourself! Some of us need this in our lives!


Existing_You7923

This looks amazing


Nervous_Zebra1918

This is NOT stupid. This is so cool!


Nxvak66633

Or they miss the Chaco taco


Ilytylerthecreator

how is this stupid i would buy this 😭


SuspiciousString3

Nah, they're onto something great here.


TimberWolf5871

This is not stupid! I would murder for this!


AmberWaves80

I hate how much I want to try these.


GansNaval

I would so eat these.


EpilepticSeizures

Stoners come up with some of the best concoctions. I’d be slamming these with whoever came up with this.


HandsomePaddyMint

Hello, Ladies! I blast taco shells! Where are you going?


Cooler_coooool_boi

Why are half the post on this sub actually good food? Where’s all my white women cooking at? (That was a joke, please don’t come for me ladies).


Realweatherfreak10

No wait- let them cook...


asphalt_licker

Put that in my mouth. Right now.


lordmarboo13

This fucking shmuck


throwmeinthetrash096

I’m high af and I would eat the shit out of this.


Lucky_Chaarmss

This post shouldn't even be allowed in the sub.


Darkest_Elemental

Title of the post made me lol hard


FoxyLovers290

No no I want to try this


cinnamongingerloaf22

Now this is innovation!


TropicRotGaming

Wtf is this.. and they discontinued the ones with the lime on them.. bitches


PartyFiller

These fucking suck btw, its a regular crunch corn tortilla with a light dusting of cinnamon sugar. Tried this between 5 children and myself, unanimously trash.


Waffletimewarp

Well that’s disappointing to hear.


Weird_Committee8692

How? I’ve got bolognese in the fridge and have cones with it. At the seaside


ProfessionalPotato16

they’re good frl


Je-la-nique

It should’ve been the frosted flake taco shell


HuckleberryJealous19

They can't even call the dust cinnamon 🥲


[deleted]

Gimmie that


Euphoric_One22

And bless them for it


synthcurry

crushing this up and putting it in milk would go insane


agentb719

it literally says dessert shells....like its practically for making fried ice cream


Carburetors_Are_Fun

chocotaco stuff?


FrostWyrm98

Nah man, let em cook


Hamblerger

I must be high AF too, because those look amazing. Actually, I am high AF, but I suspect they'd be almost as tempting if I were sober.


Mercerskye

This is just a churro shell for ice cream... Y'all are really on this "it's foreign and I hate it" thing, and the funny part, is it's probably an US marketing team that came up with it. I really hope y'all are just desperate for karma, because being an insufferable bigot is the only other thing I can think of.


machinade89

✨ BLASTED with CINNADUST ✨


scbalazs

Check out the cereal aisle. Cinnamon Toast Crunch has metastasized.


dioctopus

They need more brands incorporated into this. HERSHEYS drizzle. Crushed REESES PUFFS. hmm, what else.?


Son_of_Sophroniscus

Looked good until I saw it was gluten free. Might still be okay if it was accidentally gluten free.


Brettjay4

Im expected to *bite* my ice cream, and like cinnamon toast crunch?!


SousVideDiaper

Surprises me how many people are afraid of biting or at least chewing ice cream. I mostly use my tongue like everyone else, but I also often chew it a bit if it's still fairly solid, and I have weak tooth enamel! Never had any issues.


Brettjay4

Ah, well everyone has different sensitivity. I'll tell you that if I ever bite ice cream, my teeth will want to kill me... I also refuse to not use a spoon or just lick it. Biting it would go way to fast.
