    97 is a really respectable age.
     
    Also nacho cheese is the best, specially with a bowl full of chilli.

    Damn, we've lost a good man today. Doritos are the best food. I feel like I should worship this man as my god now.

    I'd go for some Nacho Cheese/Hot and Spicey, good stuff, the man's a genius for coming up with Doritos.

    Wow 97! I wonder how many Doritos this man ate. Those chips usually make me feel like I am about to die.

    They should cremate him, mix him with some nacho cheese dust, and distribute him to stores across the country.

    They must be in Sweden somewhere - theyre everywhere in Finland. Hunt them down!! Or failing that, cross the border and buy 100 bags!

    Since he lived to be 97 I assume he never consumed his own creation.   True story:  I use to love Cool Ranch as a kid until my sister pointed out that my stinky Soccer Cleats smelled exactly the same as Cool Ranch Doritos.   Now I get nauseous when ever anyone eats them in front of me.

    The correct response is to get hungry after taking your shoes off.
