[MONDAY MINUTE] PepsiCo Stops Production at Facility Where Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Were (Supposedly) Invented 🤔
Description
We have a regulatory agency under the Department of the Interior that handles the conservation of federal land for all the tree-huggers. And there’s another regulatory agency under that same government department designating nationally significant historic landmarks for all the history buffs. But what about a national list of culturally significant business properties for all of us business nerds? As an example, how sad is it that PepsiCo announced snack production would stop at its Frito-Lay production facility in Rancho Cucamonga (California) after more than 50 years in operation? And if you’re scratching your head…wondering the significance of this production facility, it’s probably because you didn’t watch the feature-length directorial debut of Eva Longoria from 2023. This is the site where Flamin’ Hot Cheetos were invented (supposedly), thus creating the CPG industry version of “Good Will Hunting.”
