I ended up getting the chicken version. It comes in a special footlong box that I kind of wish every footlong Subway sandwich came in. Did I measure the box to ensure I got footlong nachos? No, I didn&#8217;t because I was too occupied with eating what was in the box. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-69205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach2.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach2.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As I looked over my order, I noticed the amount of chicken was a bit thin, but all the other toppings were plentiful. The sandwich artist chopped the tomato slices into quarters, but they didn&#8217;t chop the red onion and jalape\u00f1o slices into smaller pieces. With the vegetables being the sizes they were, it wasn&#8217;t easy getting them all onto one chip without having to play Subway Topping Jenga. However, using the sauces and melted cheese as a glue helped.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-69206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sbwdorfootnach3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While visually, the Doritos look like they&#8217;re being overwhelmed by the toppings, their flavor is still pronounced with every bite. The vegetables and sauces enhance the nacho cheese chips, making every messy bite satisfying. I particularly enjoyed the moments when there was a strong tomato taste. As silly as I find the concept of footlong nachos, I have to admit I actually enjoyed eating it.<\/p>\n<p>None of the chips got soggy while eating it, although I did start consuming it right after receiving it. Not sure if it would survive a 10 minute ride home with all the cheese and sauces.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I&#8217;m not sure if all Subway locations are doing this, but even though I ordered via the Subway app, the workers waited until I got there to toast mine and put on most of the toppings because they said they didn&#8217;t want to get the chips soggy from them. Of course, your Subway may vary.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m surprised by how much I enjoyed my Doritos Footlong Nachos (I&#8217;m also surprised Taco Bell didn&#8217;t come up with this first). I could see myself repurchasing it as a snack because I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s filling enough as a meal for most people and I think it&#8217;s too much as a side for any Subway sandwich. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $6.00*<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 8 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 590 calories, 41 grams of fat, 11 grams of saturated fat, 1 gram of trans fat, 70 milligrams of cholesterol, 1240 milligrams of sodium, 38 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, 5 grams of sugar, and 20 grams of protein.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, things are a bit pricier here.
