Well now you can have a fully Jurassic meal with Ore-Ida’s new Dino tater tots. \n\nFor the first time in 20 years the potato company is changing the shape of its tater tots, not only with the dinosaur-shaped ones but also with new star-shaped tots for America250.\n\n“Ore-Ida invented Tater Tots — and now, we’re shaping what comes next,” said Claire Lukaszewski, senior brand manager of Ore-Ida, in a press release. “With Dino and Star Tater Tots, we’re building on more than 70 years of potato expertise to bring new energy to the category — delivering the same great taste people expect in formats that feel fun, relevant, and made for today.”\n\nMcDonald’s introduces ‘dirty soda’ lineup\n\nBoth of the new shapes of tater tots are now available at major retailers across the U.S. in both 28-ounce and 5-pound bags.\n\nPeople online appreciate the tater-tots making dino-shaped food more accessible as they are gluten-free and vegetarian.\n\n>        View this post on Instagram            \n\n### About the new tater tot shapes\n\nThe dinosaur-shaped tots come in four different prehistoric shapes: Triceratops, Brontosaurus, T-Rex and a Dino foot, per Allrecipes.\n\nThe company said that the dinosaur shapes are meant to tap “into the cross-generational love of dinosaurs — from childhood nostalgia to pop culture fascination — in a format that is easy for parents and fun for kids.”\n\nThe star shapes in partnership with America250 are to celebrate the United States’ 250th birthday. They will bring patriotic and celebratory flair to any meal.\n\nRed Lobster brings back endless shrimp, but are diners taking the bait?\n\n### People react online to the new dino tater tots\n\nFollowing the announcement of the new dinosaur-shaped tater tots, many people online shared their excitement for the new food.\n\nOne user on X, tried some of the tots and shared their review “they were crispy, tasty, and stinkin’ adorable.”\n\n> Dino Tots are the ONLY tots I wanna eat from now on - they were crispy, tasty, and stinkin' adorable! 🦕🦖\n>\n> Purchased at Target pic.twitter.com/fIzhskuba5\n>\n> — Snackolator (@snackolator) May 6, 2026\n\nMany X users have expressed their excitement to be able to pair the dino tater tots with the long-established dino nuggets.\n\n> IVE NEVER NEEDED ANYTHING MORE THAN THIS AND SOME DINO NUGGIES https://t.co/uz5sDf8C56\n>\n> — Mackie 🪤 ~ hopital ~ (@DisasterGay99) May 6, 2026\n\n> dino nuggets and dino tots and truly creating a Jurassic experience https://t.co/V25ZyIVyN0\n>\n> — Ghi (@CwispyGeo) May 7, 2026\n\n> And yes, we WILL be eating dino nuggies and tater tots when we hang out, and you’re gonna LIKE IT!!! 😤 https://t.co/9OUUNs19Ao\n>\n> — Robyn Ivarmoore 🪄🔥 Fantasy Mage VTuber (@IamTheTactician) May 6, 2026\n\n> Going to make my dino nuggets square up to my dino tots and see who wins https://t.co/ARXTSFsxf6\n>\n> — hannah rawles (@hannah_rawles) May 6, 2026",
