The exclusive videos include content from YouTube star Freddy Wong, BMX star Tim Knoll and Vine celebrity Zach King, as well as a music video preview by band PPL MVR. While the videos are also available in 2D format, they have been designed to take advantage of 3D viewing.

“Being bold has always been in Doritos Jacked 3Ds DNA and this new flavour takes that to the next level,” said Jeannie Cho, senior director of marketing for Frito-Lay North American. “We wanted to make Jacked 3D snacking a unique Doritos experience. Thats why were celebrating the launch of the new Bacon Cheddar Ranch flavour by giving consumers access to 3D mobile content thats available no matter where they may be snacking this summer.”
