Talk:Fritos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This might be an urban legend, but I've heard that Fritos are so oily that you can light one and use it as a small torch for a while. Dr. Sunglasses 22:49, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

- I wastched an episode of Survivorman last night and he used fritos to help start his fire and explained that they were like little candles, so it is true. --Scott 20:59, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
I just went outside and tried it, it works... I'll add it to the trivia section.
[edit] Removed "Snack food preferred by people concerned about their health."
For obvious reasons (a 2 oz. bag has 31% of the RDA of fat and 320 calories. This is hardly a health food.) ChrisStansfield 19:24, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] New Flavors
I just got back from the store where I saw a new flavor. Tangy Roasted Corn. From the back of the bag: "Based on an authentic snack sold around the world, Fritos Tangy Roasted Corn Flavored Corn Chips have a savory blend of 3 simple flavors: roasted corn, mexican spices and a twist of lime." Oddly, it's not on the Fritos website. They're good, though. Marshall Stax 06:37, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
