Good Morning,

PepsiCo apparently thinks that Doritos are just too much for women to handle.

The company is developing a line of chips designed specifically for women. In an appearance on Freakanomics, Indra Nooyi, CEO of PepsiCo, said the snacks new will be “low-crunch” and “not have so much flavor stick on the fingers” because women “don’t like to crunch too loudly” and “don’t lick their fingers” like men.

As one can imagine, the reaction to this news has been unfavorable. People took to social media to comment about the new female-oriented snacks.
