    How is the bandito a stereotype? It's a depiction of Mexicans in the old west & I'm guessing 1 in particular from a Clint Eastwood movie that uttered the famous line " Badges? We don't need no stinking badges! "

      That line wasn't from a Clint Eastwood movie. It was from "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre", starring Humphrey Bogart and Walter Huston.

    A lot of Millennials have never even heard of WC Fields- IMHO the greatest solo comic of the early sound period! Fritos should make him their mascot again for that reason alone!

    Can you post any of the commercials with the Munch a bunch cowboys if
    you can find them? I vaguely recall seeing one the year the narrator said
    that Frito Bandito was retired.

    In the age of minimalistic and bland brands, I kind of miss all these mascots.
    I do agree that a lot of them relies on stereotypes, especially based on ethnicity or country of origin; they aged poorly and are kind of tasteless in that regard; but overall mascots are so damn cool and gives so much personality to a brand, a product, an event, etc.
    Like here, this whole mexican stereotype is something to keep in the past, but with it and the other mascots, there is a whole cowboy lore and imagery you can use.
    Fritos are probably still good, but the brand is definitely more bland now.
    I really hope to them come back more in the future.

    How do you not have more views? This is a really good video, and I honestly wish they kept The Frito Kid, he's my favorite of the Fritos mascot. Also, I know this is a weird request, but could you upload the Magic Bullet Frito Kid ad? That one is super cute, and I haven't seen the whole thing.

      I seem to recall a WC Fritos commercial from the early to mid 70s where he kept visiting the school nurse with some little complaint or other in order to get a free bag of Fritos from her. The three I remember were...
      My glove is stuck.
      My nose is cold.
      Indians! Indians!
