To help promote the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and to sell some chips, Doritos and Marvel have teamed up in one of the coolest ways possible.
This limited edition bag of Doritos will include an auxiliary input for a ‘cassette deck’ that will actually play the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 soundtrack.
Plug in your headphones and get into the groove with Parliament’s ‘Flash Light,’ Fleetwood Mac’s ‘The Chain,’ George Harrison’s ‘My Sweet Lord,’ Silver’s ‘Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang,’ Glen Campbell’s ‘Southern Nights’ and others. To match the cheese theme, there’s even a track by David Hasselhoff.
The ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’ Doritos bags will become available April 28th on Amazon. In the meantime, you can play the ‘Awesome Mix, Vol. 2’ below… no cassette deck required.
Just what we need to end the Unicorn Frappuccino — hopefully by lighting it on fire and watching it turn to ash. The Dragon Frappuccino is our new gaudy blender drink, that should start filling up our Instagram feeds any second.
Created by a few Starbucks baristas, it’s a “green tea frap with vanilla bean powder and some berry cup swirl,” borrowing a few leftover ingredients from the now extinct Unicorn Frapp.
We’re not sure exactly where the Dragon Frapp might be available but, if interested, keep an eye out around Starbucks for scorched earth, or angry treasure-seeking dwarves.
