Mission Foods products.

[LoPony]

Just curious. If you go to the grocery store and are looking for tortillas, do you tend to select Mission foods?

I do. And I didn’t give it a thought before they sponsored NHRA. I just wonder if anyone on here shares the sentiment.

Sometimes advertising works.

I always try to lean to a race car sponsor product no matter what the racing is.

Me too. I just enjoy doing it.

We always bought them, so I guess we made them enough profit to sponsor NHRA

My wife bought some Mission products and I don't think she knows they sponsor the NHRA. I have leaned towards Mission products when I shop, but Tostitos with lime are pretty darn good!!

I wish they would make small, snack-sized tortilla chip bags for lunches, etc. I don't usually need those huge bags of chips that they sell at the market.

Do you mean like this??? The wife went to a business meeting and this is what they served with the sandwiches! Really? The bag is Liteally 4 1/2" by 3 1/2". I'' bet there are about 4 mini chips in the bag.

I have switched to Mission tortilla, chips and even their salsa. I have purchased Mission ever since they sponsored the Vance and Hines Pro Stock Bikes.

Oh yeah, FritoLay is definitely guilty of shrinkflation. What is that like 3 chips in there?

Yes, I specifically get the soft flour tortillas.

Used to eat mission products until a good friend showed me the YUKA app, very disappointed what is in a flour tortilla in most main stream tortilla products, hope they take them out, I really miss them but my health comes first, free app if anyone would like to check it out, have reached out to mission and said I would buy again when they take the bad stuff out. I have found tortillas without the additives, they cost more but just like my helmets, cheaper is not better

I never used to look at the brand, now it's the the only tortilla/chip I buy.

 

[Jim]

I have been buying Mission products for years before the company started sponsoring NHRA. I choose products based on what I like most and what works best for me, not who they sponsor.

I can't think of any product I have ever purchased because of a sponsorship. OTOH, I can think of several companies I have stopped doing business with because of their sponsorships.

No, not that small! I mean the typical size we get when we order a sandwich somewhere and it comes with a bag of chips.

 

[luxexpress]

Wouldn't think of buying any other tortilla these days. Gotta support who supports the things I like.

 

[CS]

Always used Mission products BEFORE they were a sponsor.

La Victoria products when Mike Dunn had them as a marketing partner.

Castrol GTX from John & Tony
McDonald's (back when my gut could handle it) on Cory and Cruz's cars

Considered joining the Army when Snake had the Monza and the Arrow; it didn't translate when TS had it on the panels.

So, yeah- definitely was more of a consumer when companies were invested on drag cars. I could not say the same for NASCAR or F1 sponsorships.
