3 Doritos Locos Tacos Combo

What Taco Bell says it is

On its product page Taco Bell describes it as “Includes three Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos and a Large fountain drink.” The drink slot in the description is filled at the counter; the table above shows what each fountain choice adds.

How the total is built

Add up the records for 3 x Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos and 3 Doritos Locos Tacos Combo is 510 calories before the drink. The ordering menu prints 500 to 920 calories for it, a range, because the drink slot has no default: a large Baja Blast adds 420 calories and a zero sugar drink adds almost none, and the table above shows every fountain choice.

Where it was listed

3 Doritos Locos Tacos Combo: listed at 444 of the 452 restaurants read, in 50 states and DC, read 19 September 2026. That makes it a core item: on nine in ten of the restaurant menus read or more.

By state median, Idaho was lowest at $9.99 and Connecticut highest at $13.39. A state median stands on ten restaurants at most, so a single expensive or cheap restaurant moves it; the national range is the safer figure. Pick a state on the board or on the prices by state page and the ticket on every page prices its lines at that state’s medians beside the national range.

What the price buys

By median price 3 Doritos Locos Tacos Combo ranks 15th of 23 in Combos & Boxes. The section median is $10.69, so it is $0.30 above it. At the median price it costs $2.15 per 100 calories and $5.23 per 10 g of protein.

The ordering menu carries it under two product codes with the same name; the range on this page is the code 444 restaurants listed, and the other (restaurant at $10.29) is listed by a handful of restaurants.

The record against a day

510 calories is 26 percent of a 2,000 calorie day and 48 percent of the 2,300 mg sodium limit the FDA uses for the daily value. Protein runs 21 g, 4.1 g per 100 calories.

For sodium it sits below the Combos & Boxes median of 1,640 mg.

The daily values are the guide’s own yardstick: “The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting saturated fat to 20 grams and sodium to 2,300 milligrams for a typical adult eating 2,000 calories daily.”

Allergens and certification

Across its parts the labels warn of milk, MSG and soy; a part with no statement adds nothing here, so the union is a floor, not a ceiling. The guide’s own caution applies to every part: “While a particular ingredient may not contain one of these allergens, our products may be prepared on the same equipment and in the same kitchen area as those that do.”

The parts bought separately

The parts, each on its own page where it is sold alone: 3 x Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos. Bought separately at their median prices they come to $11.76 against a meal median of $10.99, a saving of $0.77 for the meal. The drink slot is counted at the median fountain drink price in that comparison; a Freeze or a specialty drink costs more. The total is the sum of the nutrition records for the three fixed parts the ordering menu lists as the default build, each times its quantity; the drink slot has no default, so it is left out and the table above shows what each choice adds. The listing prints 500 to 920 calories, a range, because the drink is chosen at the counter.
