Doritos has fired a transgender activist who appeared in one of its promotional videos after being alerted to her sickening old tweets, including one where she wrote about doing 'depraved things' to a 12-year-old. Samantha Hudson, 24, appeared in a new partnership with Doritos Spain through a 50-second video called 'Crunch Talks that has now been deleted from the brand's Instagram. Doritos told Rolling Stone on Tuesday it would no longer work with Hudson, saying it had been unaware of her previous inappropriate posts. The decision follows massive backlash on social media, as users posted grabs of Hudson's previous comments....

Ever since right-wing influencers orchestrated a boycott of Anheuser-Busch products last year for collaborating with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney, they have been foaming at the mouth for a new product to boycott for incredibly stupid, hateful reasons. First, it was Frosted Flakes, due to its mascot posing for a photo with Mulvaney at the Tony Awards (a cultural event beloved by the right due to the absence of LGBTQ people in musical theater). Then, it was Cracker Barrel, because during Pride Month, the restaurant chain had the temerity to acknowledge the existence of gay people on its socials. Now,...

President Joe Biden on Tuesday said he was 'stunned' to find out that the Cookie Monster has been a victim of 'shrinkflation' and slammed chip companies for charging the same price for bags when you get 'a helluva lot fewer'.

Doritos is being slammed as the new Bud Light after hiring a trans influencer as a 'brand ambassador' despite the activist appearing to promote child sexual abuse in the past. Spanish native Samantha Hudson - whose real name is Iván González Ranedo - is a singer and activist with over 30,000 subscribers to her YouTube channel. Her partnership with Doritos Spain, run by PepsiCo Spain, was recently announced. Hudson, 24, has identified herself as 'anti-capitalist' and 'Marxist' in interviews, released a song critical of the Catholic Church and even said in one video that she is for 'the abolition of...

The Federal Government throws out inflation numbers that don't even have a glancing interaction with reality. Every since they stopped including fuel, housing, and food in the CPI, it in no way reflects day to day existence here on the ground. Remember as a youth, you'd buy a big bag of Doritos for your party and you'd spend 99 cents? Well, I bought a much smaller bag for $4.69. Funions? $5.69. The bagels I'd but at Aldies went from $1.69 for 6 to $3.19 for 5. A bag of navel Oranges now costs $3.69 for 5. Things like Doritos have...

President Joe Biden struggled Tuesday during a discussion on extreme weather threatening the country, inexplicably declaring that tornadoes were no longer referred to as tornadoes. “Looks like a tornado — they don’t call them that anymore — that hit the crops and wetlands in the middle of the country,” Biden said. “In Iowa, in Nevada, in —it’s just across the board.”

ou might want to reach for a bag of chips and some tissues after watching a Doritos Mexico ad that is lighting up the Internet with its sweet message of acceptance.

“Deputy Ponce and Deputy Berg found him and, due to previous calls, knew where he lived,” according to the statement. The deputies hatched a plan. “They lured him back home with Doritos one of our deputies had in her lunch bag,” the statement said. “They made a trail and he followed.” “We were able to put him back in and secure the gate,” Deputy Ponce said. “It was fun!”

As a woman, I have long dreamed of the day I could bite into a chip that has the same density as a menstrual pad. That day may be coming sooner than I thought. In a new Freakonomics interview with the CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi, Nooyi revealed that the company is getting ready to release special snacks for women that would be designed and packaged differently. Nooyi disclosed some of the essential gendered (and scientifically unproven) differences between men and women and how they eat chips. "When you eat out of a flex bag — one of our single-serve...

A Funny but Helpful Look at Original Sin in A Doritos Commercial Msgr. Charles Pope - February 12, 2016 - People oversimplify Original Sin in various ways. Some reduce it to the mere eating of a piece of fruit rather than the act of disobedience, mistrust, and ingratitude it really was.Others miss the subtle but important difference in the descriptions of Adam's sin compared to Eve's. Of Eve's sin, Eve herself is a witness. She said, The serpent tricked me and so I ate it (Gen 3:13). But of Adam's sin God said, Because you listened to your wife...

Culture surrounding the annual Super Bowl usually isn’t complete without some haggling over controversial advertisements as companies try to make the most of their $5 million half minute. But NARAL brought political correctness to a new low while live tweeting the football game… #NotBuyingIt – that @Doritos ad using #antichoice tactic of humanizing fetuses & sexist tropes of dads as clueless & moms as uptight. #SB50 — NARAL (@NARAL) February 8, 2016 (Cassy Fiano has extensively documented this and other absurd anti-life outrage that occurred in reaction to Super Bowl ads here.) This cute, funny spot wasn’t the invention of...

A Super Bowl Doritos ad featuring a woman who goes into premature labor when the father teases his unborn child with nacho chips has drawn both outrage and applause on social media. On Super Bowl Sunday -- the biggest advertising day of the year in the US -- marketing giants pulled out every trick in the trade, enlisting celebrity power to peddle their brands and creating strange and wacky storylines to try and retain viewers' attention. But while most ads garnered a chuckle at most, it was a Doritos commercial titled "Ultrasound" that had the internet freaking out, with some...

The pro-abortion rights group NARAL Pro-Choice America attacked Doritos for “humanizing” a fetus depicted in ultrasound imaging in an ad promoting the popular snack chip that aired during the Super Bowl on Sunday night.

Mike Huckabee Takes on Rainbow-Colored Doritos By BEN GITTLESON Sep 25, 2015 Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has a new enemy: Doritos Rainbows. After Frito-Lay this month said it would mail rainbow-colored Doritos chips to consumers who donate money to the It Gets Better Project, a nonprofit helping the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, Huckabee went on the offense against the snack-maker. In a letter his campaign said he sent Frito-Lay on Tuesday, Huckabee said Dan Savage, the man behind the group benefiting from the bags, has for years made “very hateful and vulgar comments toward Christians” and called...

<p>Frito-Lay announced Thursday that for a limited time Doritos will come in rainbow colors to show support for the LGBT community. Sales will go to It Gets Better, a non-profit group started by the infamous anti-Christian bully and bigot Dan Savage.</p>

So Skittles kind of has a hold on the whole taste-the-rainbow thing, but starting today Doritos is giving it a try. That's right, your computer isn't deceiving you; what we have here are real, live, rainbow-colored chips. Now before you go eschewing them as gross or unnatural, just know that the venture is for a very good cause. (Don't worry, we made the same mistake too). The limited-edition snacks were conceived with the It Gets Better project to "celebrate the LGBT community "in the boldest, most colorful way possible," according to the company. The color palette was inspired by the...

New York (CNNMoney) — Doritos are now available in every color of the rainbow. The chip brand announced a new campaign, in partnership with the It Gets Better Project, that will feature rainbow-colored chips in celebration and support of the LGBT community. The "Doritos Rainbows" packages will only be available online for a limited time. In order to get a bag, customers must pledge $10 to the It Gets Better Project. The project, founded by author Dan Savage and his partner Terry Miller in 2010, was created in response to several LGBT teens who committed suicide. The organization's message is...

Doritos Rainbows are a limited-edition version of its Cool Ranch-flavored tortilla chips to show the chipmaker’s support of the LGBT community. The chips come in shades of green, blue, purple, red, and orange inspired by colors of the Pride flag (or, perhaps, Skittles’ “taste the rainbow” tagline). “There’s nothing bolder than being yourself,” the company declares on the package.

PepsiCo Canada has launched “Doritos Roulette,” a new flavour edition in which most of the chips are nacho cheese flavored, while others are insanely hot. Consumers are calling the chips “dangerous” and “a solid slap in the face” and hundreds of people are posting videos of themselves eating the chips on YouTube. “Aside from the spice, these chips look and taste just like a regular Nacho Cheese Dorito,” according to a review by the blog The Impulsive Buy. “So you really have no idea what you’re going to get until you pop it in your mouth.” The new flavor was...
