New game -- Doritos Roulette

You can do it now.

Gambling whether you get a hot chip or regular flavor

I hear some people have an 80% success rate guessing

If you look at enough chips, you'll begin to notice patterns and you can tell which ones are hot. Then the trick is to only take a bite when you're hungry.

I have a 100% bag success rate with this system method.

I had dinner yesterday at the Legion. We put out a bunch of trays of snacks for the football games, and I helped clean up before dinner. I noticed most of the trays were well picked over, except for the Doritos and a tray of cheese doodles. Several types of chips and veggie trays were popular, but not so much the Doritos.
It was an older crowd, with only a handful of people under forty.
I don't see the point of mystery chips. Why disappoint your customer by giving him something he doesn't want.
The older I get, the better I recall things that never happened

I've discovered that if I only eat one chip per day I have an 80% success rate guessing which one is hot or not.

I cross out the weight of the chips written on the bag and write in two extra ounces.

After getting burned a few times (literally the hot ones are scorching hot) I have decided the -EV is too high for me.

I'm leaving the bag in the fridge for other people to consume.

I might eat a few Doritos once a year. Even as a kid, I wasn't a Darito, chips or popcorn feen, I can eat just one Pringle. But, I'd kill for a deep-fried Mcdonald's apple pie, they can shove the baked ones up Grimace's ___.

Take one home and deep fry it. What can you lose?

Doritos give me neck cramps when I look down. I've had to switch to party size Lay's Wavy potato chips. But I can't mix potato chips with alcohol.
