With a base layer of PepsiCo brand product, Doritos Flamin' Hot Cheese Supreme corn chips, and topped with Taco Bell’s classic nachos ingredients – including the consumers protein of choice, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, tomato salsa and a coating of Taco Bell’s fan favourite Lava sauce – the result is a salty and spicy flavour explosion.

The dish will only be available from Taco Bell stores nationwide from 6 November-4 December, for $11.95.

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.

A cross-sector open letter is urging national leaders to agree on a pathway for regulated producer responsibility schemes at the September Environment Ministers Meeting.
