Description
Part of the ranch craze of the late eighties, these were loads better than Cool Ranch Doritos. They had a stronger ranch flavor and were super addictive, as fritos are. I miss them and wish they would come back!

Why won't they make them anymore. They were the best. I've searched the internet for places all over the world that might sell them. I have found nothing. I've even tried to cantact fritos company itself and I got nothing.

These were the single greatest food product ever created on the face of the planet. I sometimes pleasure myself to the thought of one day having them again....

Yes, they were great!! I always look to see if they are back when I go to the grocery. They did come back for a limited edition a few year ago in Kentucky as well. So sad they are gone. :(

I live in Texas, and there is a food market called HEB here. Like many other food markets, they make and sell their own brand of food items, and they have their version of Fritos, Ranch Fritos, and Chili Cheese Fritos. The Ranch flavor tastes great! They taste just like the Frito brand.

A bag of ranch Fritos and a Mountain Dew was also my healthy lunch everyday in HS. Why do they alwaya quit making the good stuff?

I'm so happy to see I'm not the only one who misses the Ranch Fritos! They were by far the best ranch snack ever made. Anyone know why Frito-Lay discontinued the product?
Kendra - May 29, 2009 - Report this comment
Like all of you, it amazes me that this delicious product is no longer made. It was the only Frito-Lay product I really enjoyed - they were downright addictive! I even remember the commercial with the cowboy tossing a lasso around them with the catch line ... "Wild n Mild Ranch - go out and wrestle up some up some". Who was the idiot who made the decision to discontinue such a great, original flavor - it was such a hit :”(
Kendra - May 29, 2009 - Report this comment
Hey, guess what? If you go to YouTube and type in: "The Fritos Rustlers" - you can view the original commercial! Ah the memories, I want some now!

The crunch..the FLAVOR..it was life changing. I can still remember mai favorite snack. Lunch time at my school was the best time, so i could purchase a snack sized bag for 50c from the snack lady.

My three biggest favorites: Frito Lay Ranch, Ruffles Cajun Spice, and Ruffles Ranch. They need to have a limited edition "back from the dead" run and get me some chips!!!!

I used to eat them all the time in high school and in college. They were so addicting! Then suddenly, poof, no more Wild n Mild Ranch Fritos. :( It's as if they went the way of the dinosaur. They were by far the best snack chip available. I wish I knew why they were discontinued.

I have been trying to find out why in the world such a wonderful flavor or fritos is no longer availavle. The ranch fritos were so great!!! Does anybody know a way we can get them back! Let talk to corporate, we need these back asap!!

Hey Chris, My firends and will all E-mail, call and send letters to fritos if you and everyone else on this site goes to the Dutch Mill Donut link and tell everyone there to try their best to get Dutchmill Dontus back into biz!!!

That goes for you, too, TC. You guys put a note up on the Dutch Mill Dontue link and I'll have 15-17 people tell all their friends to start a petition and write the company!!!
josh - December 09, 2009 - Report this comment
maybe we should use regular fritos and find or make some kind of ranch powder to sprinkle in the bag,of course you would have to moisten them to get it to stick to them good enough,but would have to do just right not to get them to moist or they would get soft. maybe some kind of oil? in a spray bottle,spread them out on a pan,put back in the bag then shake the bag. might work with some time and diff products to get just right. joshuaelliotthutton@yahoo.com let me know if anyone gets it right. to busy to try myself

Man, I thought I wad the only one who was on the for some Ranch Fritos. People look @ me crazy when I ask them do they remember that flavor and they always go back to Dorritos. I have also emailed FritoLay, a havent gotten a response yet. If anybody has any idea how we can contact them, please let me know what I can do to help. kylamperry@gmail.com

Hey Dj, please give me the web site for dutch mill dontue, i cannot find the link to the site, i have people who will put there name on the list for the petition. Please give me a web site of give me the next step and i will do it!!! Everybody else, i really believe that we can do this, if we are all excited about ranch fritos and we all want them back, i believe there is enough of us to get the job done. Lets come together and make this happen. I am a team player and the only way this can really happen is if we push and push and keep at our goal. Please do what ever you can to get petitions and if anybody else has a way we can get to the company and plead our case they step up and you will have support. thanks

My husband is at the gas station and I told him not to come home until he finds me a bag of Wild-n-Mild Ranch Fritos. I guess I won't see him for a while! If I ever get my hands on a bag.. no matter how stale.. I will eat them! We should definitely start a petition.. I thought I was crazy when I remembered the name: "would they really give it such a long name?"
