Doritos/NetflixDoritos is diving into the Upside Down with a bizarre new Stranger Things collab that fuses two iconic chip flavors in one bag alongside a Black Garlic Dip.
The company’s “Collisions” line mixes two flavors in a single pack, and the latest combo pairs Cool Ranch with a brand-new “Stranger Pizza” flavor.
The move ties back to the ‘80s setting of Stranger Things, when Cool Ranch first debuted, while also answering fans’ demand for pizza-flavored Doritos.
Alongside the mashup, Doritos is dropping glow-in-the-dark “Stranger Things” packaging for its Spicy Sweet Chili Minis. The canisters feature bite-sized versions of the beloved purple-bag chips wrapped in designs that light up in the dark.

The partnership extends to limited-edition Stranger Things packaging across Nacho Cheese, Cool Ranch, Sweet & Tangy BBQ, and Spicy Sweet Chili, plus four Doritos and Cheetos Minis.
Beginning September 30, fans can also call 1-855-4-HAWKINS as part of the “Chip In for Hawkins” telethon, themed around 1987.
Plus, to dip the chips, Doritos is also releasing a Black Garlic Dip with a Demogorgon on the packaging.
FacebookThis collab is just one piece of the media blitz ahead of Stranger Things’ last chapter. Netflix will release the fifth and final season in three parts.
The first will debut the day before Thanksgiving with 4 episodes releasing November 26. Following that, 3 episodes will be released in Volume 2 on Christmas Day. Finally, the series finale will come out on New Year’s Eve, December 31.
