Doritos facts
No matter how many bags of Nacho Cheese or Cool Ranch Doritos you’ve munched your way through, you might not know everything about the snack juggernaut.

1. THE IDEA FOR DORITOS MIGHT HAVE BEEN BORN IN A DISNEYLAND TRASHCAN.

The exact origins of Doritos are a little murky, but at least one story has pinpointed the location of the chip's beginnings as the happiest place on Earth. In its early days, Disneyland featured a Mexican restaurant based around another hugely popular corn chip. The Casa DE Frito's offered tamales, enchiladas, and, of course, bags of Frito's. As author Gustavo Are-llano recounts in Taco USA: How Mexican Food Conquered America, in the early 1960s a sales rep for Alex Foods, which supplied the Casa DE Frito's with its wholesale ingredients, saw cooks throwing out unwanted tortillas. The rep told the cooks that in the future they should save the tortillas and fry them into chips. 

Patrons liked the improvised chips so much that they went on the menu. As the story goes, the next year, Frito-Lay marketing executive Arch West visited the restaurant, saw how popular the tortilla chips were, and started planning a national roll-out for the snacks. 

2. THE ORIGINS MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN THAT MAGICAL.

While the Disneyland angle is intriguing, when West passed away in 2011, his obituaries told a less Disney-intensive story. The Washington Post doesn’t mention Disneyland, simply saying, “He was on a family vacation in Southern California in 1964 when he first bought a grease-smeared bag of toasted tortillas at a roadside shack.” Similarly, the New York Times quotedWest’s daughter, Jana Hacker, who remembered a vacation to San Diego and a stop at “a little shack restaurant where these people were making a fried corn chip.” 

3. THE LINEUP TOOK SOME TIME TO EVOLVE.


Wherever West got the idea, he made the most of it. He sold his bosses at Frito-Lay on marketing the toasted corn chips, and Doritos stormed American shelves in 1966. To give the line more of a Southwestern flair, in 1968 Frito-Lay introduced taco-flavored Doritos. The eventual workhorse of the family, nacho cheese, debuted in 1972, with cool ranch following in 1986

4. THE NAME IS NO LONGER TOTALLY ACCURATE.

While the mere mention of the word “Doritos” probably conjures visions of neon orange chips, the name originally referred to their un-dusted color and means “little golden things.” 

5. A 1992 REFORMULATION HAS A VERY SPECIFIC BENEFIT.





When Frito-Lay tweaked the nacho cheese variety’s recipe in 1992, it only set out to improve the seasoning’s flavor to create a nacho cheesier future. Instead, it helped the romantic prospects of Doritos devotees. For whatever reason, the reformulated recipe that included more natural cheese also eliminated “Dormitory breath,” the unpleasant lingering of snack aromas long after the last chip was gone. 

6. DORITOS GOT AN EVEN BIGGER MAKEOVER IN 1994. 

By 1994, Doritos was raking in $1.3 billion a year, tops in the snack category. Parent company Pepsi didn’t quit while the chips were ahead, though. Instead, Pepsi invested a reported $50 million in what the New York Times called “the costliest redesign in Frito-Lay's history.” The revamped Doritos boasted a stronger flavor, while each chip was 15 percent thinner and 20 percent larger. The new chips also had rounded corners where the previous version had sharp points, a triumph for both eaters and fans of efficiency. Frito-Lay director of corn products Jerry Vowel told the Times, “It's easier to eat them, without the sharp corners. And a lot of the scrap in the bottom of the bag was from the corners breaking off. It was just a waste."

7. THE FLAVORS CAN GET PRETTY WILD.




If you’re bored with nacho cheese and cool ranch, break out your passport. Japan has inventive flavors like Tuna Mayonnaise Doritos and Clam Chowder Doritos; Turkish smackers can enjoy Yogurt and Mint Doritos; and Belgium offers Pure Paprika Doritos.
