Chip RIP

You never know how much you will miss someone until they are gone.

While I've not met the man, I know his heart and it is pure. I didn't come to realize his greatness--even thought his work to be "awful"--until just this year. And now he is gone.

Sir, you thrill us with your variety, your flavor, your delightful crispness. You never fail to rise to our expectations, giving us exactly what we need every time we engage your creation. You have left your dust on the trail of history.

Little, sweet, salty, cheesy, perfect orange dust.

Thank you, 97-year-old Father of the Doritos. May you rest in the peace of knowing you will continue to bring joy to millions...one wonderful triangle at a time.
