> Doritos tortilla chips have a new flavor. Yeah, yeah, when do they NOT have a new flavor. :) But the new flavor, and some of you have probably tried it, is "Four Cheese". It's a very good flavor; I've had two bags to date (they're fairly scarce here).

So, after finishing the bag, I read the ingredients list. What I found there surprised me, and left me wondering.

it could be that they only have 4 real cheeses. Fake cheese can't be called cheese. that's why you'll see on the label "cheese food" Calling it "Four Cheese and Two Cheese Food Doritos" wouldn't be a very good marketing strategy ;)
