Have you ever opened a bag of chips and thoughts, why is there so much empty space? Did I just pay for mostly air with a side of chips? You are not alone! For years, I've thought I was getting ripped off with each delicious bag of chips. Today, I want to find out if that is true and I am starting with the biggest culprit of them all - Doritos!

Hey Theorists! In the video at 11:56, the Breakage Rates for the More Chips Bag and the Average Bag are accidentally swapped; the More Chips Bag Breakage Rate is actually 79.8%, and the Average Bag Breakage Rate is 74.9%. Sorry for the mix up!

Shout outs to Pringles for never selling air
First reply? Pog
They were selling chips?
ae?
Ah yes
But their logo is trash cuz of how they over simplified it
Pringle’s with like a 99% unbroken rate: pathetic
But they are so expensive too. Doritos is very affordable and tasty.
Where I live their like a $1.50
Where i live doritos cost way more than pringles and you get less in doritos.... The logic.
Where I live the difference is really big. And I have lived in two different countries and seen almost the same difference.
@@mohammedfaizan3013 expensive? They’re like, £2 where I am ($2.25 ish)
I think what this tells me is I'd rather have a lot of smaller doritos that can be packed tighter together (with a more sturdy casing maybe like pringles) than the unoptimized, fragile crushable mess we get
You speak truth
They make that now
@@carterhalo255 So happy they make these now!
So like pringles, maybe not the exact same but a can rather than flimsly bag?
@@neloplays5774they make tiny sized Doritos in a Pringles style can now. Worth it
I thought I figured it out when I was trying to have off brand Fritos and couldn’t open the bag because it was filled to the brim. I was like “oh they just do it for convenience”

If they were really worried about chip breakage, they would just put them in a box instead. Cheese Its and Pringles do it right.
czcams.com/video/x21ihLFZWDQ/video.html

Cheese it’s also are squares and smaller. Pringle’s are oval shapes. And smooth. Doritos aren’t. Doritos are awkward, bumpy triangles. They would break easier , likely
@@donovandouglas6817 I'm sure they would break easier, but the box would save space, use less packaging, allow for less truck loads per shipment, and be biodegradable. All of which would make them better for the environment, cheaper for the manufacturer, and most likely decrease chip breakage (despite not being as durable as cheese its or pringles)
Plastic pouches are cheaper.
@@donovandouglas6817 Here's an idea, triangle-shaped boxes
Doritos (spicy nacho) is my favorite snack food. The standard grocery store-size bag used to be 14oz. Over time, it went down to 11oz. Now it's down to 9oz. They re-branded the 14oz bag as party-size.
Gotta love shrinkflation.
I thought i was the only one who thought that the party size was like half the size they were a couple years back
I actually found that a local off brand dorito bag is fuller than a doritos bag and is also a bit smaller too. Win win win for me and nature😂
And i dont know how they exactly do it🤔
Their chip is probably tougher than a Dorito. Most of brand foods tend to be bulkier than the brand name ones for whatever reason. Just experienced this with off brand Frosted Flakes basically ripping the roof of my mouth when regular Frosted Flakes have never done that
@@zacwoods the texture is indeed a bit different, however not in the expected way probably.
They are actually slightly more brittle, I've actually never found a fully complete chip in any of the bags i think. They always at least lost a part of their triangle shape or they were broken into ,2 or many pieces😭
But they taste way better and are roughly 1/3 cheaper so idm
Not a thing on Game Theory, Film Theory or Food Theory has been as scary as watching MatPat reaching for Doritos with a second left hand...

Something that the intro just made me think of that I think would be a great @foodtheory episode is how many bags of Doritos, which are 16% chip and 84% air each, must one person consume in order to eat a bag of Doritos that is 100% chip and 0% air?
Hence why I love Pringles. Definitely not in mash potato form, but chip form. They have perfect packaging, shape and size.
Doritos should put this link on their chip bags saying why there’s so much air.

Doritos actually sell bags of air. The chips are just a bonus.
for lays they give you air and somehow theres chips in them cause the workers accidentally put them in there
This Made Me Laugh Lmfao
No both of you are wrong it is flavored air
Yes
Yea always gonna buy chips for air to breathe
Here is a food theory video idea: How much milk is enough to go in your cereal? or How much milk is the perfect amount in your cereal? It might be a good idea, but it could be really stupid.
Wait that's so true. I never questioned why doritos go bad quick inside the bag when I assumed it was air

Plotwist this is THE sponsor
I wonder if Dream sponsored him too, never really got an answer on that on "Theory"
learning that Doritos bags are likely full to the brim upon leaving the factory but arrive almost empty and broken just broke me... Only thing worse than this is USPS delivery times. So Doritos needs an Einstein to develop a chip that is less brittle while exposed to nitrogen gas, and become less brittle per a normal doritos once exposed to oxygen...
And made us really want Doritos.

Yes
What about the beef jerky price do you think is/could be a scam? Do you think the premium jerky is the same as non-premium jerky but with a different packaging? Do you think the mark up is so high and making jerky is so easy you should just do it yourself? Is the price of jerky advertising one price but selling for another? What is the potential scam of beef jerky prices?

Lays, with 90% air: **nervous sweating**
Potato chips are lighter and less durable than corn chips, so they might need more air to keep them safer.
@@timwoods2852 Oh yeah. But there's still an excessive amount of air, even considering how fragile they are compared to Doritos.
yah i was wondering why he did dorito's i feel like dorito is the least air bag compared to lays they have like 100x more
like seriously a bag of lays has like 10 chips and im talking about the big ones
Yea, I wish he did lays instead :/
@@elliotttlikescartoons rancidity.
I like the Kirkland Mission Tortilla strips cuz they actually fill the bag up pretty full and don't have a huge issue with breakage because of the shape of the bag. Frito Lay needs to take a tip from Kirkland.
And they taste better then most tortilla chips.
12:33 well, they don't have to use bags at all, they can use other containers. Look at Pringles.
My store manager at target would always say “you can’t sell air,” I worked in the electronics department where we had an air duster a few aisles away and a brisk walk away from the chip aisle lol

11:59 isn't it weird that the fewer chips bag faired roughly the same as the more chips bag with less than 3% difference?
Wouldn't that mean that it wasn't the air protecting the chips, but rather the outer layer of chips are protecting the ones at the center from breaking.
Also I've bought diff. brand tortilla chips in chunked up bags, yes with lots of air, but are also filled to the brim with chips. Most of the chips weren't broken. The Doritos tortillas seem especially fragile for some reason
the issue now is though that they are reducing the volume and size of the bags so that you in the end have fewer chips
recently ran to the store to buy my favorite flavour of chips, only to find it was about half the size it was even a year to half a year ago and wouldnt even have been enough for a game day snack bowl had I needed it for such

@@Interopsty Nono, add less because they still need to put air in the bags
@@Interopsty They're adding nitrogen and increasing concentration, not removing it.
You mean, "we seem to both be in the bag".
while it does add cost nitrogen gas is quite cheap as it is so abundant in nature
MatPat: "Hate to go clickbait on ya'"
Twitter: "I beg to differ"
Tip for getting "less" crumbs in your chip bags. Open the bag from the bottom! I worked in grocery store shipping and even there the chips are always oriented the same way. By opening the opposite end the powder and smaller chips with fall back through the big ones. You eat the crumbs naturally with the bigger chips. Results in less loss if you won't eat chip dust. Learned this from my ex and this is the best thing to come from that relationship.
Imagine snacking on a brimming full pack with no breakage. Yep, *"IMAGINE..."*

I would rather a fuller bag of Dorritos split in halves or even thirds, than half a bag of mixed quality. The chips are pretty big and are practically designed to break with the way they curl
They're not gonna be just split in half tho... You'll be eating crumbs
@@snowflake8658 53 secs ago
also if the chips are intact they are harder to eat in one bite and easier to poke to roof of your mouth with.
@@snowflake8658 Exactly. The most traumatic time for the bag is actually when you put them on the shelf or reposition them there and as a store worker let me say that there is a lot of pressure to put as many bags on the shelf as we can (because they come to us in boxes and we can't store partially filled boxes in the back so they gotta go somewhere) or move all of them around quickly when "facing" the isle. If you grab the top so the bottom puffs up like a balloon, you can really manhandle them without breaking anything.
Why? The size if the bag dosent matter
Would this be diffrent with normal lays? (The salty red bag)
This man has changed my life
Brands should try selling in cans like Pringles, but for Doritos they'd have to do either wider cans or triangle cans.
OOOH TRIANGLE PACKAGING WOUKD BE COOL. maybe not in cans tho
They actually make those triangle cans, I've seen them advertised.

ffo kcaj
idk what kind of chip bags you're getting but all the ones I've had have been fuller than people usually say they are; I can't finish a whole bag in one sitting anyway (and yes I mean the regular sized/big ones)
On the topic of chips: What is more worth it? Those snack/mini bags or the full size? I ask this because on one of mini snack bags it says 2 for $1 or 1 for 59 cents, and i believe in my area, a normal size bag is roughly 4-5$. (And of course, these bags have quite a bit of air in them)

Does the air trapped inside the bag change the flavor of the chips?
MatPat, I have your part 2 for this: Japanese Doritos (especially the "gourmet" limited edition flavors) always arrive to me with most of the chips unbroken! My theory is that it's because the chips are less dry and slightly thicker than the regular American chips.
Now that you mention it, Japanese chips do tend to have more whole chips in them. That goes for potato chips as well

Excuse me, but have you heard of Pringles, and their innovative way of stacking chips/crisps/crackers/puffs/fries on top of eachother? Biscuits with filling already use cardboard for protection, so even thin chips/crisps/crackers/puffs/fries companies could use that to deliver neatly-stacked produce to the customers.
Pringles aren't chips. They're crisps.
Pringles packaging works great for Pringles. Specifically Pringles.. But any chip which is not *perfectly* uniform and stackable would suffer from tube packaging. Any variations in shape, size, or texture would cause the chips to break themselves with even mild jostling.

Hey MattPatt. As a former fritolay employee I can actually shed some ever deeper info for ya. At frito lay they tell the merchandisers to pack out the shelf as much as possible. They pack the bags in cases of doritos in cases of 7 bags. In a cardboard box. And stack them up to 6 ft high when they ship them through the trucks. Where most of the chips getting crushed is in the shelfing process when we had to literally pack them so tightly on the shelf 80% of the time the chips get crushed.

Reason why most bags have more “air” then chips is to keep it fresh and nice longer. Would you want your packaged food to be 94% chips and 6% air or it popping in the car or smh or your chips expiring/getting moldy before you buy it at the store? It’s better to have it this way then the other way .
If someone could manage to create a chip bag that can be almost completely full even after all the shipping, that chip company would be one of the most successful
Chip box….or chip can?
My Dad works for FritoLays, so when I saw this episode of Food Theory I had him watch with me. By the end he was amused by it, so I think you can take that as a win MatPat.
Dad approves!
Personally I would love a "myth theory" where you'd take famous historical myths and try to see if they could possibly be done with science from today, from theoretical future technology or if possible from whenever time a given legend is from! It would be a great way to teach history and many forms of science as well!
soo Mythbusters?
@@dispensergoinup wasnt mythbusters mostly popular media
This idea sucks
Yeah, that’s just mythbusters
@@bvq330 just telling him the truth
This is so true every time I open a dorito bag it's literally half air I really opened a Dorito baG It was like 10 chips in there
MatPat: Says that dorito bags are 84% air
Me: immediately goes to grab a Dorito bag
