Why do corn chips (Fritos style) have ~50% more fat per same size serving than Tortilla Chips (Tostitos), given both are made of the same ingredients?

Question

I have noticed that a serving of fritos has about 10g of fat per serving while tortilla chips are closer to 6-7g. Given that both have essentially same ingredients, why such a wide difference?

The way they are cooked may be different- so doritos are baked/dried before they are fried, so they get a crispy outside that soaks up less of the oil they are deep fried in, but the internet seems to thing fritos are just fried, so they have a softer surface to absorb lots of hot oil.
