In case you missed it, the internet is not happy about the announcement that Doritos are reportedly going to bring out ‘Lady Doritos’.
In an interview with Freakonomics, PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi talked about how ‘gender differences’ are driving product development.
“[Women] don’t like to crunch too loudly in public. And they don’t lick their fingers generously and they don’t like to pour the little broken pieces and the flavor into their mouth,” she said.
Crunching? HOW UNCOUTH.
As a result, he said, Doritos were researching a chip that would be "low-crunch" with the same "taste profile" and - get this - "purse size."
"Because women love to carry a snack in their purse," she said.
Naturally, Twitter had a field day. Here are some of the best.
But before you angrily crunch your way through an original packet in protest, it looks like people may have got ahead of themselves.
Oh. Ok then.

Seriously?
Here's Ed Sheeran re-written...
I walked her home then she took me inside
To finish some **Lady Doritos** and another bottle of wine
I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write
About a Galway girl and a perfect night
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said, "baby, I just want to dance"
My pretty little Galway girl
This woman has never seen me eat, obviously..........
Honestly, how sexist. There are women who eat like pigs (me) and men who eat with without spilling/crunching loudly/licking fingers (my husband). Why not just bring out the chips and market it as a mess-free snack, for goodness sake. Why only try and market it to people with vaginas?
