The business was not doing well but Monta\u00f1ez knew just what to do to save the day: Inspired by his Mexican roots and culinary tradition, the janitor invented a new snack that his community (and, eventually, the world) would enjoy: A super spicy chip \u2014 if we can call it that \u2014 that \u201cburns good.\u201d The movie is all at once endearing, inspiring, and fun for us who are curious about figuring out how iconic features of pop culture came to be. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
