During his arson spree, Orr had several nicknames: the Pillow pyro due to the location of the fires inside retail stores; Frito Bandito, due to starting some of his fires using potato chips.

Fire investigators from Southern California converged on the destroyed store, and declared the cause to be an electrical fire. However, Orr insisted that the cause was arson. Orr was correct, of course, because he had set the blaze.
Wild you’d be this blatant after a fire that kills 4 people but I guess you get complacent after getting away with something 2000 times.

Because potato chips are generally water-free from the bag and rich in oil, they make for a decent firestarter!
The more you know, it makes sense, I definitely will use this information for non fire starting activities.
