New Doritos Chip: Tripioso

Just by the name I highly doubt that these chips are being sold in the states. Then again you never know...they might be sold in the PRican communities. This is the first time I've seen them. The name "Tripioso" makes me laugh. Doritos has adopted a PRican slang word to promote their new product. Actually, it's probably new to Doritos, but not to me. These are flavored (corn) tortilla chips which I used to eat all the time at my brother's baseball games. They were just made by a different company and I can't remember what they were called. Everything gets recycled and made new again, huh?

Definition
Tripioso: taken from the english word 'trip', but more in the sense of 'trippy'. Means that something (object, event, action, etc) is very, very cool and/or exciting.
