About this video

A first taste of Doritos chips in the village. This Tribal People Try episode does what the channel always does: put something new in front of people who cook every meal from scratch and let them talk.

What is chips?

Packaged snacks: Pringles, Doritos, Cheetos, Takis, Lay's flavours from around the world, Japanese Kit Kats, pretzels. Crisp flavours differ wildly by country, and the video is usually a tasting flight.

Doritos were created at Disneyland's Casa de Fritos restaurant in the 1960s from leftover tortillas; Nacho Cheese, the flavour in most videos, arrived in 1972.

What to watch for

Crunchy and salty is always fine. Flavour dust is the interest: sour cream and onion, ranch, salt and vinegar and cheese powders are all new, and Takis' lime-chilli heat is the closest to home. Cheetos' orange fingers get laughs.

The comparison they always make

Nimko, chana chor garam and masala crisps are the village snacks — spicy, tangy, dry. Foreign crisps are judged as underseasoned unless they are hot.
