I love Doritos
Excuse me, but if you've been following this blog for a while, you may remember that I love a sweet called Doritos.
Moreover, Doritos are sold in Japan as well, but the Doritos sold in Japan are different from the ones sold in America, where the back of the package is written in Japanese. It is.
I think the taste is different, and I love the ones sold in America (all of the packaging is written in English) rather than the ones with Japanese packaging. That's why I can't eat Doritos very often in Japan, and I always miss Doritos.
So(?)This time, I'm going to digress a bit and talk about my favorite Doritos, which has nothing to do with cars or Porsches.
Recently, I had a chance to get many things I wanted from America.
First up is Lucky Charms cereal, which my kids love, and Apple Jacks, which I love.
There's also a cereal called Froot Loops, which kids love the most, and a super cute stuffed unicorn holding a box of Froot Loops, which I didn't even know existed.
Too cute. fluffy. Above all, it's cute that he's holding a box of Froot Loops.
There are many others, but one that I didn't know about was this Oreo called Double Stuff.
The white part in the center of the Oreo is double. Did something like this exist? I did not know.
When I tried eating it, it was so thick that even one piece was enough to last me for a while. delicious.
However, this is a terrible food with 70 kilocalories in one piece. Just one small size Oreo!
Now, here's the main topic.
I also received four large bags of Doritos as a gift from someone who knows that I love American Doritos.
If I could choose one last thing to eat before I die, what would it be? I love Doritos Flaming Hot so much that if you ask me, I'd probably choose the spicy version of Doritos Flaming Hot.
A friend who knew about this said, ``We also have these,'' and gave me four types of spicy Doritos: Flaming' Hot, Spicy Pineapple Jalapeno, Tapatio (hot sauce), and Spicy Nacho.
Well, the days when I ate Doritos in mainland America were the best, even though my weight skyrocketed.
In conclusion, after comparing four types of spicy Doritos, I think Flaming Hot is my favorite.
And then I got this one that I was curious about.
That is "PopCorners".
I wrote about this on my blog in February 2023, but it's a new product released by Frito-Lay, the company that makes Doritos.

I wanted to try the American version of this product, so I'm really happy that I was able to get it this time. And it comes in 3 flavors.
What I noticed here is the difference between the Japanese version of Pop Corners, which is already available in Japan, and the American version.
After all, the back side of the products sold in Japan is Japanese ↓
Since there is a difference between the Japanese and American versions of Doritos, which I love, I am testing the hypothesis that there must be a difference between the Japanese and American versions of Pop Corners.
What?
This is a Porsche blog, right?
Yes, um, that's right...I don't think there are many people who are verifying this kind of thing, so I am writing this blog out of a sense of duty (?) that I have to do it. What is it?
The large bag on the left is the Japanese version, and the small bag on the right is the mainland American version with English on the back.
When I tasted them and compared them...
It was different after all! !
First of all, even if you look at the shape, it is already different. The top is the US version and the bottom is the Japanese version. The Japanese version clearly has a bigger pop part, or rather, it's thicker.
It's not just this one album, but overall the Japanese version had a bigger pop part and was thicker. ↓
There was also a difference in taste, and although the American version was thinner, I felt that it had more flavor.
...However, this Pop Corners.
To be honest, from a Japanese perspective (both the Japanese version and the American version) the texture is kind of ``a little too thick'', so I think people will either like it or hate it (sorry).
Am I smart? I don't really like the texture, so even though it's low in calories, I don't think it's appealing at all.
However, since Pop Corners is a new product, I wanted to try it, so I was happy to be able to try the American version as well.
Conclusion.
For me, Doritos is the best, and the American version of Doritos Flaming Hot will continue to be my number one ^^
So, no, what is this blog (lol)?
