Am I allergic to doritos?
So, today I bought a bag of spicy Doritos, and just a few minutes ago i looked at myself in the mirror, and my all around my mouth was covered in red spots.
I though it was like stuff from the chips so I tried to wash it off but it didn't want to come off.
The red spots do not make my skin bumpy or anything like that.
I do not have acne, and the area around my mouth was definitely not covered in red spots earlier today.
So what I was wondering, could this be an allergic reaction to Doritos, or what is it?

if you are allergic to anything it is an ingredient in the doritos so... look at the ingredients and see if anyhting you are allergic too is in it and if it isn't or you do not know what you are allergic too then maybe you should get a blood test to find out what you are allergic to

Yep, you're having a reaction and the timing does strongly implicate the Doritos. Doritos have Monosodium Glutemate in them, (listed as "natural flavors" in the ingredients), that is most likely the culprit, since MSG allergies are fairly common. You may also be reacting to the capsasin in the spice coating.

Contact Dermatitis is one possibility That is a fancy way of saying the perhaps the oils or spices in your snack irritate your skin.
