Doritos are grain-but I personally would put them as fat too

Junk food and condiments, respectively.
On the actual pyramid, I would think that Doritos would be in the "fats" group - that's where candy and sweets are generally found. Mustard would fall in "Oils and discretionary calories". (<- I got that one from the USDA food pyramid site. I guess it's a category now.)
Good luck!

The top of the Pyramid contains foods that do not fit into the other food groups. Some foods in this group have no nutritional value, some provide little besides calories, and some have limited nutritional value but also contain large amounts of fat and sugar. These foods include:
Fats and Oils: butter, margarine, cream, coffee creamer, sour cream, mayonnaise, salad dressing, gravy, cooking and salad oils, and bacon.
Sweets: cookies, candy, cakes, pies, jams, sugars, honey, syrup, pastries, and doughnuts.
Chips/Snack Foods: potato, corn or tortilla chips, some crackers, cheese curls, some microwave popcorn, other snack food items.
Alcohol and Other Beverages: alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, fruit punches and drinks, coffee, and tea.
Condiments: ketchup, mustard, pickles, soy sauce, and other bottled sauces.

together they fall under the 'gross' category.
The yellow/yellowish condiment you use on hotdog is made from the mustard plant and that is considered an HERB.
Doritos are made from ground corn which is a GRAIN.
Of course they are so processed I'd put them in a category of their own. Yuck.
