Takis is a Mexican brand of flavored rolled tortilla chips produced by Barcel, a subsidiary of Grupo Bimbo since 1999. The shape of Takis is fashioned after the taquito. Takis chips come in numerous flavors, the best selling of which is the chili-lime "Fuego" flavor, sold in distinctive purple bags, introduced in 2006. Besides the rolled corn chips, Takis produces other snacks with the same flavor lines, including different potato chip varieties, corn "stix", and peanuts.
Takis were invented in Mexico in 1999 and introduced to the United States in 2001, later expanding the snack's reach to Canada in 2015. Initially sold as Taquis, the snack was renamed to Takis in 2004. Barcel originally intended to aim Takis towards a Hispanic demographic, but its popularity has quickly spread further.
