Doritos Creator to Be Buried With His Chips


The man credited with making one of the most habit-forming snack chips on the market has passed away, and according to a family member he will be buried with the crunchy goodies that will be his legacy.

Arch West, the man recognized as the creator of Doritos, passed away last week. His daughter, Jana Hacker, told The Dallas Morning News that his family plans on throwing Doritos in the ground before his urn is covered with dirt.

West, a former Frito-Lay executive, died of natural causes last week at the age of 97 and will be buried on Oct. 1.

The chips West invented, reportedly after a family trip to Mexico, will most likely become his greatest legacy. Crispy, cheesy, and unnaturally hard to put down once the bag is opened, Doritos have become a mainstay of American barbeques, college dorms, and all-night gaming sessions.

Throughout the years Frito-Lay has introduced many different varieties of the chips, from Cool Ranch to 3rd Degree Burn Scorchin’ Habanero, all to varying degrees of love and success.
