The New Lay’s Potato Chip Flavor Is…

by Geek Girl Diva on May 8, 2013

America has voted and, apparently, the new Lay’s Potato Chip flavor chosen during the The Lay’s “Do Us a Flavor” vote is…Cheesy Garlic Bread.

The Cheesy Bread chips flavor, brainchild of winner Karen Weber-Mendham, beat out Sriracha and Chicken & Waffles. Ms. Weber-Mendham will be the recipient of either a million dollars or one percent of the chip’s sales, whichever is greater.

Personally, I’m fine with the decision—but I’m betting fans of the other flavors are bummed out.

How about you? Are you happy with the winner?

McDonald’s Japan To Give Away Fry Holders That Are Both Ridiculous And Awesome

by Jonathan Fallon on April 22, 2013

For a limited time starting on April 24, McDonald’s locations in Japan will be giving away these “potato holders” to anyone who orders a value meal. The product is made to look like a regular McDonald’s fry container and is touted as a great way to eat fries while riding in a car or bus, or on a bike. However, with the possibility of delicious, fat and salt soaked food porn tempting your eyeballs, the company deemed it necessary to advise people to “refrain from eating and drinking while driving.”

If you’ve eaten at Taco Bell recently then you’ve likely tried the Doritos Locos Tacos. Earlier rumors have been proven true as Frito Lay has announced that starting on April 8th, you’ll also be able to buy them as chips in a bag. In other words, the chips that became a taco shell are becoming chips. They’ll be available in either Cool Ranch or Nacho Cheese flavors and they’re launching with a contest that can win you a whole pallet of chips.

Lay’s Might Be Releasing Sriracha, Chicken & Waffles And Cheesy Garlic Bread Flavors

by Jonathan Fallon on February 8, 2013

Lay’s is in the midst of a “Do Us a Flavor” contest, which has Eva Longoria and chef Michael Symon searching for the greatest potato chip flavor ever. The contest began last October, and resulted in fan submissions such as feta-and-watermelon and fig gastrique.

Three flavor finalists will hit the shelves on February 12, and customers will be able to vote on their favorite. However, ahead of their release, the folks over at First We Feast spotted a series of photos suggesting that the flavors (Chicken & Waffles, Sriracha and Cheesy Garlic Bread) have already gone public.

There’s always the possibility that this is Photoshopped, but it looks like we’ll have to wait until the 12th to find out.
