A photo showing how much oil a Fritos chip left on an unfinished wood floor is going viral on social media. The photo was posted by reddit user NH_operator in the mildlyinteresting subreddit, where it has received over 17,000 upvotes and 2,000 comments as of this writing.
In the post, the user claimed that he dropped two Fritos chips on the unfinished wood about a week ago, which led to them leaving very large oil stains in the wood. The oil stains appeared to be around 6 inches in length despite the fact that most Fritos chips are not more than 1 inch.
The photo sparked a lot of reactions from other reddit users, who expressed their shock and disgust at the amount of oil that Fritos chips contain.
Some users joked that Fritos chips could be used as a substitute for WD-40 or motor oil, while others said that they would never eat Fritos chips again after seeing the photo. Some users also questioned the authenticity of the photo, suggesting that it could be staged or edited. Others joked that oil should be the first ingredient listed on the back of the packaging.
The photo also spread to other social media platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook, where it generated similar responses. Many people on social media are saying that the photo is proof of how unhealthy Fritos chips are, and the massive amount of oil that is packed in each small bite. Some people are also comparing Fritos chips to other snacks, such as Doritos or Cheetos, and wondering how much oil they have as well.
How Much Fat is in a Bag of Fritos?
According to the nutrition facts on the Fritos website, one ounce (28 grams) of Fritos Original Corn Chips contains 10 grams of total fat, 1.5 grams of saturated fat, and 0 grams of trans fat. The website also states that Fritos chips are gluten-free, have no artificial flavors, no preservatives, and no MSG. However, some critics argue that these claims are misleading, and that Fritos chips are still high in calories, sodium, and carbohydrates.
How Fritos Chips Got Their Name and When They Were Created
Fritos is a brand of corn chips that was created in 1932 by Charles Elmer Doolin. The name Fritos comes from the Spanish word fritas, which means fried. Fritos chips are made from whole corn kernels that are ground into cornmeal, then cooked in corn oil and salted. Fritos chips are one of the most popular snacks in the United States, and are often eaten with dips, such as salsa or cheese.
Who Owns Fritos?
Fritos is owned by Frito-Lay, a subsidiary of PepsiCo. Frito-Lay is one of the largest snack food companies in the world, and also produces other brands such as Lay’s, Ruffles, Doritos, Cheetos, Tostitos, and Sun Chips. Frito-Lay has faced several lawsuits and controversies over the years regarding its products’ ingredients, labeling, marketing, and health effects.
Frito-Lay has not yet commented on the viral photo of Fritos chips leaving oil stains on wood floor. However, some experts suggest that consumers should be aware of the nutritional value and ingredients of any snack they choose to eat, and moderate their intake accordingly. They also recommend that consumers should look for healthier alternatives to fried snacks, such as baked or air-popped ones.
