A new snack, Doritos Loaded, launched at 7-Eleven stores on Wednesday to a mix of enthusiasm and snickers.

The triangular snacks combine melted American, Romano, and cheddar cheese coated with Doritos Nacho Cheese flavor and seasonings.

Available only at 7-Eleven and selling for $1.99, the snack is targeted at millennials.

In a review for the Chicago Tribune, Kevin Pang compared Doritos Loaded to people he has dated: “Tempting at first, a terrible idea in retrospect, and once again, I am dumb enough to fall for it.”

Doritos Loaded was developed by PepsiCo and 7-Eleven and tested in Washington, D.C.

With 1,070 milligrams of sodium, the snack has some health advocates concerned.

"Considering PepsiCo's vow to move in a healthier direction, it's disappointing to see the company 'innovate' such a junky food," said Michael Jacobson, executive director of the Center for Science in the Public Interest, USA Today reported.

Twitter reactions were mixed.
