RIP, dude who invented Doritos

I wonder if there's a cheaper, 99 cent casket?

 

You're a good man, Ace.

 

In Toledo, Ohio, they're currently testing Cool Ranch Dorito tacos. The shell is sprinkled with Doritos dust. That sounds bizarre... and yet enticing.

Q: Why were they name "Doritos?"

Was Arch's wife named Dorothy or Dolores or something?

And working backwards, was there actually a Mr. Frito, who teamed up with Mr. Lay?

 

Plus, this SOB didn't invent the damn things until 1961? He was 47 by then, why'd he wait so long?

One of my granddads kicked in '63 and probably is ticked off he didn't have more time to enjoy Doritos.

 

Ha!

Try our new Soylent Green Doritos.

 

Damn. All the good ideas are taken.

 

I actually read the wikipedia entry on Doritos. It was kind of interesting.

 

I'm glad they revived the old school Taco Doritos. Yummy.

 

Pick it up, desk. It's good.

Also, it wouldn't be proper not to purchase a bag of Spicy Nacho Doritos on such a day. But $4.29? For roughly half a bag?

Ouch.

 

Here's hoping that old gentleman has moved on to his Cool Ranch in the sky.


........ A-thank you.
