Is it normal that my brother is terrified of doritos?

He is 12 years old, and he is completely freaked by anything with that kind of cheese. Cheetos, Doritos, etc. If I eat them, he won't hang out with me unless he watches me wash my hands twice with soap. At first I though it may be he didn't want the orange cheese on his stuff, but he can't stand the smell of them and can't be in the same room as them. Once, and I will admit this was a bit mean, I took out a dorito and literally tried CHASING him with it, and he ran away, tears in his eyes. (I did it to see exactly how he would react, to find if he is scared or not.)

What do you all think?

      Maybe, although as far as actual germs go, he doesn't mind. He doesn't wash his hands much, and wouldn't mind rolling in mud, really. It's just doritos, cheetos, cheese puffs, etc. It used to be like this with cheese-itz and goldfish crackers, but he got over them. I think it's just the thick kind of cheese. It seriously freaks him out.

      This has been going on for a very long time now, I'm honestly thinking he may never get over it. It could be a bit of a problem...

    instead of being worried about him being scared, you should be taking advantage of it because you get more doritos for yourself. normally brothers hog all the good junk food and all that so this could be something you can have all to yourself.

    Haha. I find that hilarious. I'm pretty sure he will get over it though. You should talk to him about why he's afraid of it.

    I am the exact way, and I have no idea why. I can't get over it, it's been going on since I was 6, now I'm 14.

  • Haha thats hilariouss, some people are just afraid of things that are not even scary. Tell him what is he afraid of when he see's those chips and even ask your parents, to calm him down. Tell him, chips are not harmfull, you eat them. LOL:)

    I watched one of my kids chase the other one with a dead bug. But a Dorito.... I can see it they aren't very healthy.
