Best Answer

Charles Elmer Doolin is credited as the inventor of the Frito and a founder of Frito-Lay. Some also credit him with inventing the Cheeto, but I dispute that, unless someone can cite an earlier date than 1947 for the appearance of Cheetos. That date is when I personally observed an extruded, puffy corn snack being made in Arcanum, Ohio. These "corn curls" were then shipped by rail to Indiana, where the cheese and salt and coloring were added.
