    I don't know whether to groan or salute you.

    I freaking LOVE the Nacho Cheese Doritos.

    Best. Chip. Ever.

    Followed closely by the Taco flavor from the 70s.

    Cool Ranch Doritos may be the greatest chips ever invented.

    I see Nick and I disagree. But that means I don't have to worry about him getting into my chips :)

    I have really cut down on chips the past couple years, but what are your favorites? I love Sun Chips and Ruffles Sour Cream and Onion, among others. Doritos flavors are all pretty amazing, especially the two-in-one bags. mmmm.

    The Spicy Nacho is my new favorite and a food group into itself, eclipsing the vaunted Taco flavor from the 70s, which -- if you're paying attention -- have made a comeback at your local grocer's snack aisle.

    Complete with original bag.

    I've already observed my moment of silence here in remembrance of the man who invented/marketed my favorite junk food.

    I love salsa, so I never cared for Doritos because that powdery residue just doesn't mix well with salsa. Or even bean dip!

    But in respect for Doritos death day, I won't besmirch them.

    If they cremated him, they could make him into his own flavor.
