Doritos are a popular brand of flavored tortilla chips originating from the United States, inspired by Mexican cuisine. They are made from corn, vegetable oil, and a blend of seasonings that vary by flavor—such as nacho cheese or cool ranch. While Doritos provide quick energy due to their carbohydrate content, they are primarily considered a snack food rather than a health item. These chips are typically high in sodium, artificial flavors, and saturated fats, which can contribute to health concerns if consumed in excess. Additionally, some varieties include monosodium glutamate (MSG) for enhanced flavor. They are not a significant source of vitamins or minerals and are low in dietary fiber. While tasty and satisfying in moderation, Doritos are best enjoyed as an occasional treat rather than a staple in a balanced diet.
