"Rainbow-colored Doritos will make the kids gay!"

Well, this idiot says so...

Rainbow Doritos A Gay Gateway Drug

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Friday, 9/18/2015 10:40 am

The announcement yesterday that Doritos will soon release rainbow-colored chips to support the It Gets Better Project, which works towards preventing anti-LGBT bullying, naturally drew the ire of conservative pundits like John Nolte of Breitbart, who said that Doritos is flying the “colors of anti-Christian hate and oppression.” But Nolte’s protests pale in comparison to a column in the right-wing American Thinker by Ed Straker, which could be confused for parody. Straker writes that the new chips are “the perfect gateway snack to introduce children to the joys of homosexuality,” lamenting that nowadays “it’s perceived to be cool to push a specific sexual orientation on children.” Calling for a boycott of Doritos and all products from its parent company, Pepsi, Straker urges conservatives to “push other companies to launch pro-heterosexual campaigns” by, for example, persuading “a hot dog maker and a hot dog bun company to do a joint effort promoting man-woman relationships.”

And why a hot dog? Why not a kielbasa or bratwurst or some other kinds of sausage?

And the bun too; kinda creepy comparing a hotdog bun to mysterious lady parts and all that, never seen one that looks like a hotdog bun.

Perhaps a tubular sausage and an orchid would provide a better visual reference for people, hot dog and bun not so much

But they're on my oxymoronic food list, right above "boneless ribs!"

There's a lot more colors in a box of crayons than in a bag of Doritos.
