I was just sitting here munching from a bag of nacho cheese Doritos when I noticed some gal's picture on the back. Her name is "Marvelyn Brown", she's 25, and she lives in Tennessee. This is what it says:

"Marvelous Connections"

"At 19, Marvelyn tested positive for HIV. She was shunned by her community and shocked by their ignorance. Instead of hiding, Marvelyn chose to tell her story. She wrote an autobiography and starred in a PSA series. She's even spoken to more than a half a million people worldwide, convincing over 200,000 people to get tested for HIV."

Now my question is this: why the F are you bringing me down when I'm just trying to enjoy some nacho cheese Doritos???

Which brings up a question I've had the last couple of years: What happened to plain, unflavored doritoes?

Aren't those called tortilla chips?

Nope, they're different. I always liked them a lot. I could swear I've seen them in the store fairly recently. I think they call them corn flavored.

"Meet 12-year-old Bosnian Pyotr Bibleselik! He lost his entire family when his village was ethnically cleansed. He survived by living in a forest eating grubs until a Red Cross convoy picked him up. That's when he was rapes by a band of gypsies posing as relief workers. Pyotr loves delicious sea salt and vinegar Lays Potato chips!

If you were high like you should have been while eating nacho cheese doritos you wouldn't have cared.

I recommend Captain Crunch when the munchies strike. Seriously, it will blow you away.

Meet Jugdish Patel. He was born in the Calcutta slums and subsisted on the dregs in discarded canned goods until he was 14. Jugdish was eventually hired by Dell Computers of Austin, Texas at their Calcutta Customer Support Center as a tech support answerer. Last month, he bought his entire family party-size bags of Lay's BBQ Potato Chips because they are much crisper than the dirt and goat snot they normally enjoy at family gatherings.

The toasted corn is the original dorito. they existed before the nacho cheese flavor came out.

Doritos without the nacho cheese is kind of like a really hot chick without boobs.

I am a route salesman for fritolay, and these things sale like crazy. They dont taste nearly as salty as Tostitos do. And by the way, i remember a while back you asking about Pizza Doritos... They are back. Not sure about your current area, but West and Central Texas have them, including Waco.

I saw them at Wal-Mart yesterday and almost bought a bag because of this thread. They have a unique flavor as opposed to plain tortilla chips that warrants a try.

The ethyl methyl phenylglycidate and ferric sodium pyrophosphate really kicks the flavor up a notch

A fact greatly appreciated by Congolese teenager Yusuf Lumumba, who was kidnapped and is being forced to serve in his local dictator's private army after several of his younger siblings' arms were hacked off by machete over a cache of diamonds stolen from a rival warlord.

I've been seeing retro-bags of Taco flavor Doritos that even have the little sombrero on them. You older folks will probably remember that Taco was the only flavor, other than plain, until the Nacho Cheese flavor appeared.

Too bad Frito-Lay doesn't have enough time to produce VK's ideas into a series of slick Super Bowl ads.

HIV PSAs combined with snack food. Yummy! Pass the chips!

Wolf Brand Chili could do their part with a PSA for Crohn's and colon disease: Neighbor, how long has it been since you've had a big, thick, steaming BM? Well, that's too long! See your Doctor for regular screenings.

Just got a bag over the weekend.

Two differences I noticed:
1)They are still utilizing the foil bag instead of printed cellophane.

2)I didn't find any of the "Seasoning Nuggets" that were invariably waiting at the bottom of the bag in Taco Doritos circa 1980....They resembled chunks of a sad, brown Cheeto, and my brother and I would dare eachother to eat them.

My favorite Dorito of all time was the late 80s Jumpin' Jack Cheese.

People wanted Taco Doritos to return for some time, and they issued a Taco Bell inspired Taco Supreme about 15 years ago(not the same), but these ones over the weekend were legit.
