Given what we know of Saddam Hussein's obsession with snack foods, it's easy to see why Iraqi kids are turning into porkers. Maybe Frito-Lay should give serious consideration to creating an Iraqi Division.

By the way, I've always wondered why Saddam is so into Doritos? Could it be that some of the guards have been sharing their spliff with him...?
