The majority of the flavor in Doritos comes from Mono-sodium glutamate (MSG), salt, and sugar.

I’m not surprised

@SW-User MSG is derived from plants

Used to be … true

Not now

These days, MSG is made by fermenting starch, sugar beets, sugar cane, or molasses, according to the FDA.

@SW-User This fermentation process is similar to that used to make yogurt, vinegar and wine. Also from the FDA.
