seems stupid but I also expect PepsiCo has done a hell-ton of market research before making this decision. they are just trying to make money selling a product people will buy. We can’t blame PepsiCo for the sexist ways we raise our boys and girls.
I appreciate the humor in the comic but the (female) CEO of PepsiCo’s statements are much more reasonable – that men/boys apparently like the artificial flavoring crap that sticks to their fingers and liking off their fingers (remember that commercial), while women don’t. Plus I’m sure there is the whole “Xtreme!!!!!” marketing that appeals to the man-childs we are raising that don’t really appeal to women.
If loud, goop encrusted cornmeal triangles are too tomboyish for you, may I suggest dipping them in your chamomile tea? Actually, I give up. This is too stupid and weird for effective mockery.
Hey, it worked for the cigarette companies. When white men started kicking the habit and living healthier lives the cig makers went after women with their “You’ve come a long way Baby” campaign as if cigarettes could really do that. Then when women wised up because of the increase in cancer cases for them the cig companies directed their advertising strategies at poor undereducated black men because hey… it worked for the malt liquor companies. It’s all about greed at the expense of human lives or it’s all about the bottom line. Take your pick.
According to Dr. Robert Langdon, they’re “male” only when they are turned point up…When turned point down – in the classic “chalice” configuration – then they are safely, wondrously, miraculously female…

I really enjoyed this. Good show old chap! I do believe these Doritos of which you speak could possibly cure the consumption.

Someday women will be able to enjoy the same Doritos a man does. Someday women will be able to go to work without being molested by their co-workers.

I can’t wait for the women only stump speeches, once the politicians adopt this as one of “their fresh new ideas”.

Good grief.
To paraphrase Mark Twain, that gave me the fantods.

This reminds me of the movie The Road To Wellville.
