Here is my theory. Notice how difficult it is for him to open that bag. If you've ever had those chips, the bag opens very easily. My guess is that he opened the bag, took out most of the chips, and then glued it back together, but he let the glue dry a bit too much.
I don't know why there are only 5 and some change but I do know that they inflate the bag with air to create an airbag if you will around the chips to prevent them from being crushed during shipping. However you are getting the amount printed on the bag. BTW, Lay's from Colorado are the best. -Frito Lay Employee's Daughter
They are light proof to make the chips last longer and they use aluminum on the inside to make sure no air leaks out of gets in. They are also filled with air to protect the chips. (never buy small bags of any sort of chip because they can't contain a lot of chips without it all turning to powder. the bigger the bag the better)
I used to work at a place that filled and packed popcorn just like those chips. Sometimes the machine would mess up and only fell it part way, but they did not care.. We would pack and ship them anyway.
It would be fairly easy for them to fill the bags almost completely or even design new bags that are partially clear (so the consumer could judge the amount inside before the purchase). It's an obvious attempt to save whatever money that filling the bags would cost them.
This happened to me years ago, but it was in a whole box of chips and a few packets out of the box,only had like a handful of chips, and one packet had none. It wasnt Lays though, i cant remember which company
Now I could really go for some astronaut chips, actually. I meant a chip container that you could put them in without needing 90% air as a cushion. Pringles figured it out with those tubes (and they do single serving cartons as well I think), what Lays does wrong is putting one of the foods that literally breaks the easiest into one of the flimsiest containers that we have.
I had the same thing happen to me when I bought the bag on FritoLay's Funyuns!! I only got 5 rings and I decided to call Frito Lay and ask about their quality control. I recorded that on video and sent you a video response. Hope you accept it!!
Once i bought a small pack of lays and there was only one chip. As they say: potato chips is an art to sell one potato for price of one pound of potatoes.
So, I bought a pack of Walkers "English Breakfast" lately. The first Crisp tasted like bacon, the second one like eggs and the third one? Trick question: There was no third.
could be an error (sometimes you have excess chips) kinda like the candies. sometimes you get 2 candies in 1 wrapper or 1 and a 1/2 candy in a wrapper or 1/2 candy in wrapper or no candy at all
Because webcams are often backwards, so that in the preview window it looks like a mirror, making it easier for people to comprehend what they themselves are doing currently in relation to left/right orientation.
Let me clear this up for you guys. Even though it is disappointing to find only 5 chips in a bag, there is a good reason for it to only to be half full. The rest of the bag is filled with gases that keep the chips fresh. If there weren't other gases sealed in the bag, oxygen would reach the chips and they would go stail. So if you want more chips buy a bigger bag and expect it to be only about half full instead of buying a tiny bag like the one in the video.
Dear Lays, Thank you for letting me buy a bag of air. Awh! You guys even threw some chips in there as well! P.S. I definitely got what I paid for! P.S.P.S. Your slogan, "Can't stop eating them", is true...but apparently I can stop when there's only 5 chips..
I just bought a small bag like that yesterday and there were a lot more chips in it. Someone in the production line must have fallen asleep (or the machine that packaged it malfunctioned).
This guy glued those chips back after taking them out. Also they keep half the bag air so they don't spoil after a day. This is why they don't pop and is why they last for so long.
ok guys my family owns a vending machine company and we go through chips like crazy now first of all the chip bags arent getting half full the bags are getting bigger.And to answer for this guy SOMETIMES the bag doesnt get filled to the top i mean Lays isnt doing this on purpose you'll find this problem with other chip companys so dont boycot Lays its not their fault so what one of their machine messed up it happens.
1) Eat a few chips (Lays, Cheetos, ect.) 2) Keep chewing it, but DON'T swallow it 3) After it's completely chewed, stop and notice something. The chips are almost completely gone in your mouth and you haven't even swallowed any of it. This is because it has already dissolved in your mouth. The chips they make are made of NOTHING except for sugars, starches and other junk. What everyone is eating isn't even considered a snack, more like a taste of flavor.
You know it's pretty easy to fake an un-opened bag: 1.) Open it from the other end. 2.) Put whatever you want inside it. 3.) Use glue to seal the end that you opened. 4.) Start video and open from the unsealed end making it seem like you never opened it at all.
I happen to be fond of Macadamia Nuts and usually found the best price in Walmart however, when I went back to buy another jar less than a week later the price had jumped from $5.48 to $7.40, but that's not all, a block of cheese I happen to love increased, within a couple days, from $3.59 to $6.59. Before long this country, thanks for our government and its Central Banking partners in crime, will suffer as the paper fiat money dies in our hands.

Or he is REALLY Weak
Boy oh boy if you thought this was a problem back then, my god.
Who else came from RWJ?
97%
I just love it when I buy a bag of air and the company is nice enough to give a few complimentary chips.
maybe you shoulda felt the damn bag at the store LOL
"Cmon Mayne? 5 and some crumbs?"
LOST IT @ this part haha!
He has a very calm reaction to be pissed.
you know if you had sent the unopened bag to lays with a letter expressing your disappointment they would send you a complimentary box of chips
They're trying to solve the dilemma of "You just can't eat one!"
You know i always thought air was free, until i bought a bag of chips.
Oh my god, I'm not alone!! I miss that SOO much. Especially Adams rants on traffic. lol
brings you to that infamous question, 'Can I just have one???'
TIME TO REPLACE THAT SMOKE ALARM BATTERY BRO.
It doesn't even take that much strength to open it man.
how nice of lays to give you a few free chips in your bag of air.
The awkward moment when you open a bag of air and there's chips inside.
He should be thankful. He bought a bag of air and got lucky enough to get some extra chips.
you sir need to buy some chips called Pringles. Yes, pringles, the guy with the mustache.
"Common Lays Reallyyy...5 Ann summ crumms" lol he looks so dissapointed
Your fire alarm needs a new battery.
By the time I have kids there's gonna be no chips in the bag. Just the essence and the flavor of the chips that you wish you had.
I don't know why there are only 5 and some change but I do know that they inflate the bag with air to create an airbag if you will around the chips to prevent them from being crushed during shipping.

LOL "are you serious? like 5 + some crumbs? "
I miss my bags of chips containing collectable Tazos.
I would call fake if this hasn't happened to me with Lays chips....but it has....
The bags he threw to the side sounded like they were full(mostly). That bag sure put up a fight when you went to open it.
This is the real hunger games right here.
I used to work at a place that filled and packed popcorn just like those chips. Sometimes the machine would mess up and only fell it part way, but they did not care.. We would pack and ship them anyway.
This is true! I got a bag of baked Lays at Subway the other day. There were only a few chips inside a bag full of air.

He just took an empty bag of lay's, put 5 chips in it and sealed it again
>look at advertised weight
>weigh your bag
>not even close to advertised
>sue
>???
>profit

There's only one thing to do: Write lays a handwritten letter, hopefully thought-provoking and stop buying their products (and tell 'em that you did).
90% air, 10% chips. I remember when the whole bag used to be filled. Same with Doritos.
I have the same problem with some of their bigger bags. I love the chips but the bag I opened was only half full...
That bag has already been opened at the bottom, then resealed after he's taken most of them out.
my bag came empty with a certificate to get chip ready in 2076.
go kenn...lays!
Lays 2012. We will put an end to invisible chips.
I had the same thing happen to me when I bought the bag on FritoLay's Funyuns!! I only got 5 rings and I decided to call Frito Lay and ask about their quality control. I recorded that on video and sent you a video response. Hope you accept it!!
where's the AVENGERS when you need them??
it's about time someone stand up for this injustice!
Lays 2012, lets make lays famous, lets make 2012 invisiblechips' year
Here is why it pisses me off... That packaging may be more expensive then the chips.
Let this video go viral! LAYS SHALL GIVE MORE CHIPS.
Dear Lays,
Your chips are really nice, when will you start making a full bag?
Once i bought a small pack of lays and there was only one chip. As they say: potato chips is an art to sell one potato for price of one pound of potatoes.
Come on lays, like seriously!
But come on, 5 chips and some crums that's like my worst nightmare!
Sometimes I feel this, with my toilet paper.It's never enough
NORMALLY I'd say that they have to make them somewhat empty to keep the chips from getting crushed during shipping, but... This...
i have a "Fun Size" bag of peanut M&Ms that contains only one M&M.
I hate it when I buy a bag of air and get some chips in it.
I like it when you buy a bag of air and the company is nice enough to put some chips in it.

lays stacks a whole lot of crisps in their bags for a fair price!! i love it it has such strong flavours
Lays 2012 and the invisible chips
SPREAD THE WORD!! We need to make lays infamous
Let me clear this up for you guys. Even though it is disappointing to find only 5 chips in a bag, there is a good reason for it to only to be half full.

Lays fighting against the American obesity by decreasing the amount of chips in the bags. SO BRAVE.
To demonstrate that Lays can just let such a thing pass.
Dear Lays,
Thank you for letting me buy a bag of air. Awh! You guys even threw some chips in there as well!
P.S. I definitely got what I paid for!
P.S.P.S. Your slogan, "Can't stop eating them", is true...but apparently I can stop when there's only 5 chips..
LOL !
The way he counts those chips in a sarcastic, ridiculed manner cracks me up !
"5 Chips and some Crumbs" ?
True...
You dont see the bottom very well and it even looks creased up like its been glued or stuck in some way.
Landry Fields?
Lucky, you got some chips with your air.
I just bought a small bag like that yesterday and there were a lot more chips in it. Someone in the production line must have fallen asleep (or the machine that packaged it malfunctioned).
WHY ARE THERE CHIPS IN MY BAG OF AIR?
That's much better than what the other guy is eating, but you don't need to tell him to die from obesity.
ITS WALKERS HERE IN THE UK SHOULD I OCCUPY THEM?
this dude has such a calm voice
This guy glued those chips back after taking them out. Also they keep half the bag air so they don't spoil after a day. This is why they don't pop and is why they last for so long.
Lays give this man a life time of lay chips!
dude, at the lowest end, you see a white stripe... OPENED!
In thailand sometimes Lays are extremely hard to open up like that...
Come on, look at the bright side - this bag can be seen as half full
when did he? it was not opened befor the video starts you can clearly see
The air is a preservative, without it the chips would rot.
Same thing happens when I open a bag of whoop ass.
It's getting really ridiculous the bags aren't even half full anymore.. When I buy a bag of chips I want a WHOLE bag of chips
If i were you, i would recommend a can of Pringles were they are filled to the top
ok guys my family owns a vending machine company and we go through chips like crazy now first of all the chip bags arent getting half full the bags are getting bigger.And to answer for this guy SOMETIMES the bag doesnt get filled to the top i mean Lays isnt doing this on purpose you'll find this problem with other chip companys so dont boycot Lays its not their fault so what one of their machine messed up it happens.

i was pissed when i opened my bag of lays and only three cheetos came out
Switch to Pringles.
You're guaranteed to not be bullshitted.
He should of turned the bag upside down.
Landry Fields, what are you doing over there?
The cheapest you can get: being cheap with chips.
Am I the only one who got the urge of buying a bag of lay's and eat it?
Howcome it takes him so long to open the bag? Like, like, like, c'mon lays.
You know it's pretty easy to fake an un-opened bag:
1.) Open it from the other end.
2.) Put whatever you want inside it.

Maybe it's good for us. Lays trying to tell us to not eat as much of their unhealthy product.
My friend opened a new bag of cheese doritos (red bag) and found only 2 whole chips inside. True story.
Lays taste great but if this happens a lot...
BUY PRINGLES!!
I happen to be fond of Macadamia Nuts and usually found the best price in Walmart however, when I went back to buy another jar less than a week later the price had jumped from $5.48 to $7.40, but that's not all, a block of cheese I happen to love increased, within a couple days, from $3.59 to $6.59.

"Are you serious.....you live in your mum's basement!"
LAYS 2012! Let's make Lays famous!
LAYS TIME TO GIVE THIS MAN WHAT HE DESERVES! FREE BAGS OF FULLY LOADED CHIPS!!!!
Its so that the nutrition facts dont look bad like i bet that bag had two servings!
