    Also, the "air" in the bags isn't actually air. It a preservative gas that maintains freshness.

    I’m pretty sure the reason they didn’t have small bags of a lot of these is that only select flavors are packaged in the small bags. More of the interesting flavors are only in standard size bags.

    There's also a Family size (255g) bag that is between the regular 226g bag and the Party size (368g) bag. My favorite flavor is Cheddar Jalapeño...Dill Pickle flavor is my 2nd choice. Obviously, one who verbally admits they hate dill pickles isn't going to give you a great review on Dill flavored chips. But my favorite chip is by another brand: Tim's Cascade Style - Jalapeño

  • @shadowangel3995
    @shadowangel3995 2 роки тому

    For the amount of air in the bags of chips, I used to work for a snack company. The reason that air is put in, it’s actually Nitrogen gas, is when you ship the product all over the place you have differing elevations so differing atmospheric pressures if the bags are too full they will burst. Also the Nitrogen works to help keep the product from getting stale also. Also if you guys can find Tomato Basil Lays chips they are delicious and the Maui Onion are awesome. You guys need to try Doritos they have some good flavors.

  • @jreyman

    The volume of air trapped in the bag is actually important, as it keeps the bag puffed so there is less chip breakage. Unfortunately, the small bags don't really seem to benefit from this air cushion.

    Speaking of air in chips bags. This reminds me of when my family went to Sedona for Thanksgiving. We are all flatlanders. They live in Florida and I live on the east coast of Texas. Thanksgiving Day we drove from our rental in Sedona to the Grand Canyon and on the way we stopped at a convenience store. All the chip bags were puffed up like mylar balloons because of the altitude. We were fascinated. I have a picture of my daughter, sil and niece laying their heads on the chip bags like they were pillows. Just so silly and fun. :D

    • @elkins4406
      @elkins4406 2 роки тому

      That was my first guess as to why they might include so much air in the bag, actually: so they don't explode when you take them on airplanes. I've had that chip bag expansion phenomenon happen while driving in the mountains too -- it really is fascinating to see a scientific principle illustrated in such a mundane way, isn't it? Very cool.

    Lay's sour cream/green onion but I'm allergic & hate onions but still love these. But also like smokey BBQ & salt & vinegar it just depends on my mood. But I'll usually go for a bag of Cheese Doodles which is like a puffed cheeto & so good. We have so many different varieties of snacks in our chip isle in the stores. SmartFood Popcorn that's white cheddar, or the Geridelli's? Mix that has pretzels, little flavored crackers tiny baked slices of tiny bagels chips, it's a good mix kinda like a chex mix. But America loves dips & sauces to dip them in like Fritos with some bean dip, or Lay's Ruffles with some green onion dip or ranch dip or my favorite Dorito's with some Tostitos mild salsa ya never know it's all a feeling or mood away. 😄😍💜

    because they wanted to keep the name proper.

    I've had to tell people quite a few times that Lays and Walkers are the same brand. It's just that they do different flavors in each market/country. They have to put air into the bag, at least in the US, because it protects the chips/crips in the shipping process. Pringles can be filled to the top because they're not in a squishable bag. As far as Lays goes is the Cheddar and Sour Cream. The barbecue flavors are good. Chile lime is nice. Prawns are a "posh" food in the US like most seafood. Ketchup chips are hard to get in the US in any brand in most states except along the Canadian border. Sabritas is the brand name of Lays in Mexico and some Latin American places. I do like Dill Pickle chips. The flamin' hot ones are not bad if you love hot ones. I wish it were easier to get the non-American flavors. Kettle crisps exist in the UK. If you like black pepper, you'll love the Salt and Cracked Pepper ones. I looked up the Sensations prices to get them shipped to the US and they're just stupidly expensive even before you add the shipping cost. Poppables just melt in your mouth being really light. I wish they'd talked about US vs UK Bugles. Usually, humans would have to ingest more of a chemical like 4-MeI than is physically possible in a short amount of time to cause cancer in a human.

    True story. The Lays dill pickle at 13:30. To this day I maintain that I came up with that flavor. How? In 2010 or so Lays had a competition on Facebook for a new chip flavor. I would eat plain lays and eat Boars Head pickles, and the pickle juice would run onto the potato chips and it turns out it was delicious. So I submitted "pickle juice" in the competition. I wasn't named a winner yet mysteriously, Lays debuted their dill pickle flavor a few months later.
    Also... the Lays dill pickle flavor are disgusting, as he said, and taste nothing like what I made at home. Way too vinegary and dill flavored.

    The Lays potato crisps, their equivalent to Pringles are the best. However, Pringles are still the best, and are actually called crisps due to a lawsuit that the potato chip manufacturers won that forced Pringles to call their product crisps instead, because they're made from dehydrated potatoes instead of real potatoes.

    I still think it's funny people are still talking about the "wasted" space in the bag when a perfectly reasonable explanation has been given besides, "I'm being ripped off!" Long story short, you're paying for the weight of chips whether there's no space left in the bag or the bag is 120 times the current size...
