      Its interesting how having proper funds and time to care about your daily habits can cause you to deviate so much from what is so culturally American. American habits are the habits of people with low funds and lacking free time, but with an abundance of materials. Naturally, the people will gravitate to the cheapest and quickest options available. Being given the blessing to deviate from that can make you seem almost alien to the average viewer.

      After awhile I realized that I was getting headaches after eating it.

    Here in Canada, ketchup flavour Doritos are mind boggling. They're like this tomato-ey umami experience with a little zing and some sweetness. Instead of using a cheese/dairy seasoning base, they use nutritional yeast and tomato powder, along with MSG and the usual list of unpronounceables. I remember them growing up, but they got discontinued at some point. A few years ago, Frito-Lay brought them back as a limited time "Throwback" and have been doing so every summer. My mouth is watering just describing them, and I haven't had any in months.

      It's embedded advertising. He likely has a Doritos "brand ambassadorship" -- which does not legally have to be disclosed. They pay you monthly and all you have to do is make sure their product shows up in the background somewhere, or that you mention how you use it regularly... He says his assistant is the one "keeping it stocked" -- but I guarantee you Doritos has a guy who comes in every week and stocks it for them.. I've seen on other mechanical 'garage channels where they work on cars, they have a fridge that is stocked every week with mt dew. And they are always joking about how it is always full; (because that gives them a reason to talk about it)-- but a few times, they showed the guy restocking it on camera; It's literally just a convivence store guy who goes around stocking stores, and he stops by your place on a regular schedule, just like a store. This is marketing 101; It's worth for these companies to give you a free supply of their stuff, because every time it pops up in your videos, it's like a free ad for them, and the viewers don't even realize that it has purposely been placed there. But I never imagined that he would make a video about it like this. It's a little too on the nose and he should be disclosing that it's an ad-- but I bet he won't, because it's a "brand ambassadorship like I said. smh.

    A video on gluten would be interesting to me as a person with celiac.
    For me gluten seems to be in everything, especially with cross contamination. I’ve gotten sick from non-labeled gluten free oils and spices. Then I also get sick if people have used wheat flour in the room earlier in the day.
    For a while gluten free was a health craze even when people didn’t have medical conditions where they needed to be gluten free for. But then when you asked people what gluten was, they couldn’t tell you what it was but were gluten free.

      I feel like Gluten allergies and Celiac are more about our body reacting with what’s sprayed on our food rather than gluten itself
      IIRC there was a study done and it showed that gluten allergies and celiac were 100x more present after a certain year and that correlated with the same time period that a certain chemical started being sprayed on wheat in the farms

    We used to have Doritos here in Indonesia.
    But last year, the company that brought all of the Frito-Lay brands such as Lays and Doritos, Indofood , decided to stop using Lays and Doritos brandings because the usage of their license had expired. and they created a new name for those crisps.
    Now, Lays is called Chitato Lite and Doritos is called Maxicorn. But they're all pretty much the same.

    Johnny, I don't know if you tried them in Tijuana, but if you love Doritos, you should try "Dorilocos". They are usually sold as street food here in Mexico, and are made by opening a Doritos bag and stacking it as much as possible with peanuts, grated carrots, grated jicama, cucumber, hot sauce and lemon. You will still enjoy Doritos but all the vegetables add a great flavor and gets you into eating healthy food to somehow "neutralize" all the junk you are eating in the Doritos.

    'Just a Thought': When looking at the labels on 'foods' that we buy in the supermarket and there's 20 plus ingredients and many that are 'hard to pronounce' says 'Do Not Consume'. Organic Corn Chips which have 3 Ingredients such as 'Organic Yellow Corn', ' Organic Sunflower' and Sea Salt.....taste great and much better for us to eat.

    Thanks for the info and the laugh - I haven't had any kind of bagged chips in over a decade, but I remember sharing Johnny's adoration of doritos for breakfast - so much so that I have to make a point of never buying them because opening a bag = eating the bag = feeling awful but wanting more lol. It truly is a perfect example of how brilliant food science is at pushing our buttons.

      I agree. It almost feels like the distinction between packaged food and drugs is blurring away.

      @@Tpoleful you're so right about that - I honestly feel that some processed foods and fast foods have the potential to be somewhat addictive to at least some of us. I know I have to stay away from that stuff almost completely because of it.

    Worth mentioning Doritos started at a restaurant in Disneyland. In the early 1960s, an Alex Foods salesman noticed that Casa de Fritos was tossing unused tortillas in the trash at the end of each day. He suggested that the cook cut the surplus tortillas into triangles, deep fry them.

    My wife is Brazilian and every time we go visit her parents I realize this same thing. American breakfast is either fatty as all hell or pretty much pure sugar.

      That's what the undercover sponsor (hard to see even with 0.25 at the beginning) wants to hear! Congrats Johnny!

    What an awesome way to discuss Doritos, MSG and introduce us to the people of the studio more!
