To correct this video, the current Frito Lay executives were asked about the story and they were not able to clearly deny the janitor story. They actually came and said that the guy claiming to be a janitor was in fact crucial to the development of hot Cheetos but did not go far enough to say that he created it. They also confirmed he was a janitor who eventually moved up the company. To say this story is a scam based off the Los Angeles time is funny, when there has been numerous other stories saying the opposite. Even so management at Frito lags have said their is truth to it.
They actually never confirmed it. They just kinda danced around the idea of him maybe having had some part in the process. There’s not much evidence either way, but there’s less evidence that he made it.

It’s amazing how many haters they are when even the company has admitted that yes he was a part of it yet they don’t criticize other movies that are based off of true stories that are not completely factual, so is it just cause we’re Latinos stupid people?
