Why the hell is there a Frito shortage?

Couldn't find any Fritos in any of the stores in this whole area for my deer chili. Had to see what was the cause of it. I saw there was a Frito-Lay labor strike back in July, but that wouldn't be the cause right now 5 months later. No fritos for chili? No scoops for my 7-layer dip at Christmas? Tostitos or potato chips can't hold up to the rigors of 7-layer dip, it's science. This is some bullshite. Let's Go Brandon! #FJB

Can't find a bag of Chili Cheese Frito's at Rouses. I had to run to the Arab store to snag a couple.

Are you in BR? I bought scoops at the Albertsons on Old Hammond yesterday.

I didn't realize Frito-lay had the monopoly on corn chips. I figured there would be some knock-off great value corn chips by now.

Sonic bought them all for their Frito pie burrito thingies. Haven't felt masochistic enough to try one yet.

I highly recommend you scour the earth, high and low, to acquire a cache of Flamin Hot Fritos. Had them last week and they’re officially holy grail status.

The rouses by me must have just gotten a fresh supply because yesterday they were stacked. Had to pick up two bags for a Christmas gathering I was going to.

I fixed it for you, lol. I was typing too fast to worry about proper spelling. Too pissed off. Spell Check won't catch the proper spelling in the wrong usage.

Women everywhere are going to lose their shite when they can’t have Fritos with their spinach and corn dip this Christmas.

I've had to share this, but didn't want to create a new thread for it...
But last week I tried Chorizo-Chipotle Fritos for the 1st time and I almost cried myself to sleep thinking about those bad bitches.
I have now committed to only shopping at stores in predominantly hispanic/latino areas. They're easily getting the best snack food flavor options.

From the Frito-Lay website:

Why can’t I find my favorite Frito-Lay snack right now?
In our continued efforts to keep the store shelves stocked, we have simplified our production to best meet the current consumer demand. As a result, we have temporarily paused the production of some items.
Please know we’re working hard to get all your favorite snacks back in a store near you ASAP. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

There is a Great Value brand corn chip at my local Walmart. It's not always in stock but it exists

That's piss poor planning right there not to have an ample supply of scoops ready for the holidays and the Super Bowl.

are they in normal grocery stores or only specialty stores
are they sufficient as a standalone snacking item or do they need an accompanying dip

Hispanic/Latino gas stations primarily. I grabbed mine in the Buford Highway section of ATL

Fully self-sufficient. shite has flavor for days, only need to have a drink with them. The heat isn't strong from a few bites, but builds up with volume.
