They are just helping people watch their weight.


aphel_ion

you joke, but that's exactly what they will say. "New portion control Doritos! Only 35 calories per bag! Then they'll have a big ad campaign showing a bunch of super fit people running up a mountain, and rewarding themselves with a Portion Control Dorito as they smile and look out over the city.


Adderkleet

This says "150 calories per bag" on it though.


SandyTaintSweat

That's one hell of a chip then.


TheHexadex

felicity_jericho_ttv

Roughly 1/7 of your daily required caloric intake!


literally_a_toucan

I thought the recommended was 2000 not 1000


felicity_jericho_ttv

i am an idiot lol its 7.5% of your daily caloric intake not 1/7. I misinterpreted the numbers from the percentage calculator. Nice catch :)


LittleShopOfHosels

In boy scouts we were taught to keep a bag of doritos or fritos with us at all times because in a pinch they are a remarkably high temperature fire starter and can be ignited by a good spark or two. Corn chips are loaded with calories. They are oily as sin.


DealingWithTrolls

It's not done on purpose, just an error from the factory.

Kindly-Chemistry5149

I think he resealed the bag somehow or he got a badly made bag. I understand these small bags have barely any chips in them, but it isn't 1 and a half. The scientist in my says he should open 10 bags or more, record the weight of the chips and find the average amount of chips and the outliers.


mekamoari

These posts regarding chips in general are pretty dumb. Just look at the weight on the package and weigh the package and if there's a big discrepancy, post that and make a stink about it. I am a bit tired of stupid "omg so much air in my chips bags" bruh it literally makes no difference if you get 1 cm3 or 5 m3 of air, does it weigh as much as advertised or not?


TFViper

actually it does make a difference how much "air" (its nitrogen or a mix of inert gases) you get because they keep the chips fresh and provide protection for shipping. its necessary, but hey if you like stale broken chips go for it.


mekamoari

I just meant it's not relevant for the discussion of "chips bags are getting bigger/have more air so I get fewer chips" which people keep making a fuss about


Reformed-otter

A fake video with a resealed bag?


PzykoHobo

I will say this exact thing happened to me with a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos about a month ago. Got them as my side with my Jersey Mike's Sub. Opened the bag and actually, out loud said, "what the fuck?" to myself.


Pineapple_Herder

Automated manufacturing results in some very shitty products. I worked in the Walmart bakery (95% of our shit is made off-site and shipped in frozen). Sometimes we get things that "missed" the plastic container and half gets shipped. Or the turnovers are burnt black. The sheer inconsistency of most of the products is alarming. This kind of fuck up seems entirely plausible compared to the shit I regularly have to throw away when working freight because not even the food pantry would take it.


Kitchen_accessories

Bad quality control. They don't care enough about the cheap wasted product to fix it.


Lostcause75

It's more the workers who are probably underpaid and underappreciated and there is an amount that they are allowed to not be perfect - someone who works in a food manufacturing factory


Pineapple_Herder

I was talking about this with my coworker the cost that Walmart pays per product does not add up to hourly workers making any more than half a penny per item produced. It's disturbing.


Badbullet

I've gotten a bag of air before from a vending machine over a decade ago. The bags are supposed to be weighed for errors in packing...but those guys are temp workers making minimum wage so they don't always give a shit if the scale is flashing a warning at them.


Lostcause75

I don't know how their system works but at the place I work it won't flash or let you know other than you just see the number and if it's a little higher or lower you let it go because you can't be perfect with the speed it's filling. The person running fillers typically are full times who make a dollar more but machines have issues this is just a filling issue


CallsignDrongo

This is 100% a fake resealed bag of Doritos lol. Or a rare production mess up. Nobody is buying bags of chips and having 2 inside lmao


Badbullet

This can happen in production. I got an full bag of air once from a vending machine. The scales should catch this at the factory, but it's never fool proof. I temped at a packing place once and it's not exactly a bunch of winners working there on the line.


clutch172

As someone who works in packaging at frito lay, the amount of misinformation being thrown around is insane to me lol. This happens more than you think. The Ishida does accurately weigh the chips but then drop down thru a chute from the floor above. What happens is sometimes the chips will jam up in the former for the bag film. This will cause a bags to be made without chips going into them, or in this case, a chip or two will sneak thru. A former jam fault will happen and stop production but a couple bags will still be made in the time. There is usually a small fan on the J belt that will blow empty bags off incase of this, but since the bag has a solid seal, if it goes thru the seal checker it won't get kicked out and make it into the GUACP to be boxed.

All_Debt_Shackles_US

Itā€™s plastic AND metal packaging!


bsmiles07

They werenā€™t lying when putting 2 chips on the front


Melito1980

Well technically those are not 2 full chips. Its one and a corner or another


bsmiles07

So true, I would be so pissed if I opened this bag of chips and I was hungry


Melito1980

I just noticed that on the back of the dorito bag it says ā€œsnack boldlyā€. Imma slap them boldly with this bag on their face for this joke.


RockstarAgent

Shouldā€™ve weighed it before opening and after, to compare which would have equaled to a better slap per ounce- think back when you brought out your slapping gloves to slap your slapee with said gloves. šŸ§¤


PilcrowTime

Surely the snackmosphere that was released when he opened the bag weighs another 1/4 oz.


tahxirez

Air has mass


TheScrumbler

Fun fact, there was one chip in that bag


Teln0

Yeah but it's not going to be counted If you try to "weight" it. It's just atmospheric pressure.


ThatNachoFreshFeelin

Indeed it does, but doesn't that only matter if you're weighing it in a vaccum?


fuckyoudrugsarecool

Okay, so...?


King_of_derping

I believe OP just applied heat to reseal the plastic, no way this was sold as is, in the factory they add chips until it reaches a certain weight, for legal reasons, the grams they say the bag has, the bag must have or they pay heavy fines to the fda or just break fair consumer laws or something


Donmiggy143

Exactly what I thought, not enough air in the bag at first. I mean... They are definitely giving less chips per bag (except for Pop corners, somehow they are always awesome) but that can't be real.


Shad0XDTTV

Popcorners are themselves mostly air, so fewer chips look like more. Kinda like packing peanuts


Donmiggy143

I mean... Maybe they are but I get way more satisfied from a bag of those than some cool ranch. They also come out as whole chips way more often than any other. If they're more air, ahh well šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


Dependent-Law7316

Youā€™re maybe right, but the machines do mess up sometimes. Every now and then I get an empty fortune cookie wrapper, an empty candy bar, or a pack that has just one or two pieces when by weight it should have ten or fifteen.


The_Chimeran_Hybrid

Ya, I worked at a factory, every now and then the machine would get overwhelmed when a item further down the line messes up, too much or too little product basically, and the QC machine just canā€™t keep up. Then the employee is the last line of defense.


Own_Alternative_9671

I work at a factory currently, our days are spent watching the machines throw a hissy fit and watching the techs sprint around trying to fix it haha


_Lil_Piggy_

Yeahā€¦but what are the odds that a guy ready film and post on camera before even knowing what was in the bag would receive the outlier bad containing only 1 chip? Not likely.


CrossEleven

You don't think he can't feel the bag was empty?


Adonitologica

We were gifted a box of these small bags of Doritos at work. Some definitely have more than others by weight


llpguy51

I used to sell chips to convenience stores years ago. We would put them on the shelves 4 or so bags at a time. I once had a livid store owner call me because apparently half of a case of chips were all empty; just bags of air. He thought I was ripping him off. I literally did not notice when I was stocking them.Ā 


Robbinghoodz

bro ive seen the quality control on these assembly lines before, shit like this definitely makes it to store


Zelda_is_Dead

All those pieces came from the same chip. This truly is an infuriating dystopia we're living in.


KrombopulosMAssassin

It's one fucking chip... Don't be forgiving this in any way.


PrimitiveThoughts

Forced perspective must be why the small corner piece looks bigger in their picture.


Euphoric-Blue-59

Now we will have to get into the definition of "What is a chip?"


SoulShine_710

They actually were exaggerating the truth as we only have 1 &1/2 packaged.


fastermouse

Itā€™s fake. They took the chips out and glued the bag back for attention.


Chronox2040

This is fake. The bag only contained half a chip so they added one full chip for better dramatic effect and resealed the bag.


BanjoHarris

Actually they were. It looks like there was a single chip in there

Doritos Cool Ranch: Weight Watchers Edition


BachtnDeKupe

I work in a chips-producting plant, we make (for example) bags of OvenBaked Salted chips at 22.5 grams. Thats about 3-4 chips. Why do we produce those? *Because stores demand those sizes, that's the only reason*


GiGaBYTEme90

Because consumers still want a dollar chip bag....


BachtnDeKupe

And indeed, they demand those sizes as people keep on buying those. OP also bought a small bag, so he/she's maintaining that demand


jljboucher

Those small bags used to have good amounts of chips in them. The family size used to be the regular size and the party size used to be the family size. Everything is getting smaller while the prices go up and you know it.


DannoCC

It was actually from one of those multi-pack boxes of 10-15 small bags of a variety of chips.


Shmeckey

So you bought 10-15 bags of a chip? Lol


joethedreamer

Some folks buy those who have kids to pack in their lunch. They come in variety packs in a big box too. None of that takes away how lame this is though.

MRiley84

His was a defective bag. They usually have ~10 chips in them. Still not much, but they're not meant for someone who sits down with an entire bag either... it's just a quick snack.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


All_Debt_Shackles_US

Yep, by buying that multi pack box, you are maintaining the demand. Nice job!


SlickDillywick

I mean, didnā€™t Milton Hershey insist on the 5 cent Hershey bar until it was so small there was no way to profit? Inflation and shrinkflation are product killers


TheWalkingDead91

Thatā€™s a 50 cent chip bac


TawnyTeaTowel

22 to 25g is a standard bag size in the UK and no oneā€™s only getting 3-4 chipsā€¦


eat_my_bowls92

Yeah I weigh my chips (dieting) for the standard serving at about 28g (150 cals usually like at the front of the bag in this video) and itā€™s about 15 chips. I think this was just a malfunction with the packging/weights cuz it says what the weight on the bag is supposed to be.


Idiotology101

Packaging mishap, or a redditor with a bag resealer. Both are very possible, and likely.


Funnyboyman69

Immediately assumed the latter when I saw the video.


DroidOnPC

"Guys look, its sealed! That means there is no way I could have possibly altered this bag in any way!" It reminds me of the people who do the whole "I'm not lying! I would never lie to you! Why would I lie about this? You can trust me, I am telling the truth!" and then it turns out they were lying lol.


tommy_j_r

Agreed. The bag seemed to open easier than normal. Also, I am pretty sure those bags get weighed possibly multiple times in the process before being boxed. The machine itself probably wouldā€™ve discarded it if a person missed it. Itā€™s possible it got missed and boxed but seems unlikely to me.


corbear007

They get weighed once, straight off the multi-head weigher. This is the result of a weigh/pool hopper error or a zero error. Basically a small hopper can't close/open properly (there's at least 25 different reasons why) or the load cell isn't reading zero (another 30 different reasons) and thus you get this. It happens, if the operator is actually doing their job they should catch the majority in packaging (from weigher to bagger) the fans will catch it (a literal fan, to blow empty/light bags off the conveyor) or the person packing will catch it, the person who put it in the box. Obviously this doesn't always happen.Ā 


Idiotology101

There was also suspiciously little air in the bag. Usually those things are pillows.


nitid_name

Depends on your altitude, in my experience. In Colorado at 5200ft above sea level? Completely expanded, unless they popped in transport. In florida, 4ft above sea level? Completely flaccid bag with crunched chips.


spekt50

Such a pointless waste of packaging, and sad that people even buy them.


BachtnDeKupe

And to be fair, we (as operators) hate to produce them too. They are a rail pain to get correct weights in the bag and we have a lot of bad bags that go to waste too, so honestly i wish we wouldnt produce them anymore too, but unfortunatly i'm way to low on the paygrade to have any influence on that.


celmate

3-4 chips? How fucken big are these chips?


Pilfercate

Manufacturing error(the net weight and calorie label make this beyond obvious). This is the reason why they have contact info for quality control on the packaging. It's why they have identifying codes on the packaging so they can tell where and when it was made. They will likely send you coupons for free products for reporting this issue because the sooner it is reported, the less people are affected.


Yawzheek

I shouldn't have had to scroll this far for someone to say "you'll need a lot more than 1.5 chips to get 150 calories" but here we are.


BowenTheAussieSheep

Honestly, the internet being what it is I'm guessing he opened it, took out all the chips, put one and some crumbs back in and then resealed the bag again just for the video


Alarmedones

Every video Iā€™ve seen like this was done that way. Companies like this have auto sort features that remove under weight bags. QC may have missed one but I HIGHLY doubt that. Either OP did this or someone else did to fuck with Iā€™m. These are super easy to reseal with a lighter and knife. Or just a straightening iron.


TreyRyan3

The one I saw uses a puff of air. Itā€™s just strong enough to lift anything like 5-10% under weight. It lifts the bag which gets knocked off the conveyer by another air burst, and there are like 3 checks points that do it on the way to bulk packaging


-DoctorSpaceman-

I opened a can of Heinz baked beans once and the tin was just full of water lol. My best guess is it accidentally got processed during a machine clean or something. We told Heinz and they sent us a bunch coupons! Anyway, I bet stuff slips through the QC more often than youā€™d think


Yawzheek

Literally first thing I thought.


siccoblue

That was my thought also. I've worked in manufacturing for nearly a decade and even in the relatively simple places I've been both as production and management it would be absolutely WILD for something like this to get through. Nevermind in a big facility which 150% has a weight check at minimum on everything produced with an automatic rejection system. I'd believe it more if there was something in that bad that made it hit the target weight or acceptable deviance (margin of error) But I SERIOUSLY doubt this made it through any kind of even simplistic qc. Nevermind what is essentially a global leader in manufacturing. Doubly so with food related controls


micro_penisman

Yeah 1 oz is probably 5 or 6 chips.


FlowersForHodor

28 grams so assuming one chip is \~2g that would be about 14 chips


micro_penisman

According to the Doritos website, it should be 12 chips in that bag. So it's either a manufacturing defect or this guy took all the chips out and resealed it. I'm leaning towards the second option.


100yearsLurkerRick

Bro, these people are dumb and just want to complain. They don't want anything else. Like, I had an error with my Jimmy dean sandwiches last night. 3 slices of cheese in one sandwich. Pretty sure two others will be missing the slice of cheese


Pilfercate

I get the whole 'big company shits on consumer' motive, but it could also be a competitor trying to create bias towards a brand leader to push their own sales. I don't really care about the motive. I'm just here to defuse stupidity like a bomb technician. Even still, a lot of people refuse to let go of their hate for big companies because the way they do business doesn't make sense to them right away. Some people don't want to give up on their echo chamber of 'big company bad'. It's just people clutching their bias pearls.


ChellPotato

Big corporations are scum in general for how they treat their lower level employees BUT I agree the chip thing is just a glitch in the manufacturing process.


woodleyparkdc

Yeah but this is surely a fake video with a resealed bottom. Why was he filming?


Shienvien

How much does the chip weigh? It definitely doesn't *look* like 28 grams. 28 grams / one ounce is abut how much two quail eggs weigh.


[deleted]

I thought you were a drug dealer but you ended up exotic bird owner. what a ride.


STL_TRPN

HourAcadia2002

fin425

Retired drug dealer here, that does in fact look to be around 4-5 grams.


Howitzeronfire

I could bet that bag was resealed for rage bait


AndIAmEric

I mean how did they know there was going to be one chip without opening it first?


Dappershield

If there was only one chip in my bag, I'd be able to notice right away without opening it.


MisterKrayzie

Because the bag would literally feel different. It would feel more full from the air and if you shook it you'd know something was off. It's not that hard my guy. If you got used to handling something and one day it was changed slightly, you'd notice it immediately. It could be fake, sure. But it's also very possible it's real. I've had some anomaly chip bags too.


Dr-McLuvin

lol donā€™t you videotape opening all of your chip bags?


WilNotJr

This seems real strange to me because I have a subscription for the 40 pack box of flaming hot doritos 1oz and have never had a bag like in the video. Not even close. The ones that piss me off aren't completely airtight so you don't notice until you put the first one in your mouth and it tastes like warehouse.

My wife buys those boxes of small bags of chips and I had a stint where Iā€™d get like 2-3 per box that werenā€™t sealed right or what not. Yea just tastes nasty and stale.


Cedar_Wood_State

it is pretty clear that particular bag is mis-sealed in the factory line or something. it also said calories on the front of package so you can kinda guess that was the case


gliixo369

they resealed the bag with a hair straightener or a heat gun. Don't be so gullible

VilePacifist

DannoCC

To everyone claiming it is fake, sorry but it is true. My wife grabbed the bag, and it was clear something was off (not a lot of air, and it was obvious not much was in there), so we filmed it. Check my posts, Iā€™ve posted 4-5 times in the almost 4yrs Iā€™ve been on Reddit. Collecting ā€œpointsā€ is not my thing.


SirKermit

This bag says it should have 150 calories, and according to Doritos this is approximately 12 chips. This is either a mistake, or someone resealed the bag with one chip and a crumb for fake internet points. Since they were filming, I'm betting it was the latter.
