Oh please, if a teenager doesn't know that "Buy a bag of Doritos to find out the ending" isn't advertising then the parents are entirely to blame. Advertising is everywhere and if you don't teach your kid self-control then you are a shiatty parent.

Also, kids who have never had Doritos probably won't run out to buy a bag just to see the ending of some crappy marketing campaign.

For some reason, you look cooler than before. Have no idea why.

I know the Doritos tacos from Taco Bell are aimed at the 65+ crowd.

FTA: "Frito-Lay deliberately disguises its advertisements as entertainment because it knows this will make teenagers more likely to purchase Doritos."

Well, fark me. Companies are making advertisements these days with the aim of making people more likely to buy their products? Man, game over.
