It’s true.

Shortly after Disneyland opened in 1955, the founder of Frito-Lay got permission from Walt Disney to open a restaurant in Frontierland with a Mexican-ish theme.

“Casa de Fritos” was, unsurprisingly, all about the Fritos. Customers got free Fritos, and Fritos were incorporated into many of the dishes. Fritos were dispensed by an animatronic vending machine that featured the terrifying “Frito Kid”asking his assistant “Klondike” to bring the bag up from a mineshaft. I guess the conceit is that Fritos were mined by Forty-Niners?

Casa de Fritos contracted their tortilla production to a company called Alex Foods. One of the salesmen from Alex Foods, making a delivery to Casa de Fritos, noticed stale tortillas in the garbage and gave the cook a little tip: fry them and sell them as chips instead of throwing them away. Casa de Fritos began making these fried, seasoned chips to enormous success, but didn’t report this new menu item to the Frito-Lay company.

A year later, the new VP of Frito-Lay, Archibald Clark West, dropped by the restaurant without warning and saw hundreds of jaws dancing to the sweet crunchy symphony of profit potential. “This s--- is gold!” he (probably never) said, christened them “Doritos,” and made a deal with Alex Foods to produce them as a snack. When Doritos started to get big, production of the chips was moved to a bigger factory in Tulsa, effectively edging Alex Foods off the billion-dollar train. Thankfully, the Morales family, who own Alex Foods, weren’t ruined by the loss.

The restaurant is still there BTW, it’s called “Rancho del Zocalo” now. I have a picture of me holding a bag of Doritos in front of the sign from my last trip.
 
Alls I knows is the guy who created them was also a KDR and it's orange and a triangle due to the Delta in the name and the fraternity colors. OK I will admit the second half of that sentence is urban legend.
 
This is how we make a difference.

Keep the pressure on that wonderful magical market system. Make it financially impossible for any corporation to subsidize Nazism.

Loews Hotels said Saturday that it is cancelling a planned fundraiser for Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) at one of its properties next month over his objections to the Electoral College results.

The hospitality company in a statement suggested that it believes Hawley’s objections in Congress to the election results based on unsupported allegations of widespread voter fraud contributed to last week’s violent riots at the Capitol.

“We are horrified and opposed to the events at the Capitol and all who supported and incited the actions. In light of those events and for the safety of our guests and team members, we have informed the host of the Feb. fundraiser that it will no longer be held at Loews Hotels,” the company tweeted.

The Tweeter is wrong...Hawley didn't lie Simon and Schuster did. Hawley and Regnery just agreed to publish the book the other day.
 
Cool.

I've been trying to get in the habit of automatically stopping and reviewing every sentence where I use the word "but"


I reject the idea that "but" automatically negates everything before it as a rule, BUT it's a good rule of thumb.
