Archibald West, who worked for the brand of Frito-Lay chips, had the idea of triangular chips in 1964 by buying crispy tortillas while on vacation in Mexico. The "Doritos", with a Hispanic name, was thus born in 1966 and was almost immediately successful in all the United States, where they now exist in 23 different flavors. They are sold in 20 countries.
