OK, stick a fork in me. I'm done.
This post is to concede defeat in the ongoing debate with just_aims and myself as to whether or not the delicious creation from Frito Lay known as "Cheetos" are "chips" or "snack foods". I believe the former, but overwhelming public opinion and some semantics in product labeling say different. While I still do believe that Cheetos should be classified as "chips", I no longer have the energy or patience to see it through.
As one who opposes capitol punishment and voted for Al Gore, I do not always believe the majority is always correct (as I still do not believe it is in this case, either). However, I will not continue to insist that Cheetos are chips or make numerous posts about this topic (however important it actually is). Of course, I eagerly await the opportunity to make good on the terms of the bet, which means that I owe Aimee dinner in the near future.
I've enjoyed this "debate" for several months, but I guess it is time for me to throw in the towel rather than keep trying to win an argument I probably have no chance of winning (despite the merits of my strong arguments).
