Ever wanted to dream up your own potato chip flavor? Your chance has arrived! Enter the Lay’s “Do Us A Flavor” contest and you could see your creation in a bag of chips, or win a daily prize of $50 and a bag of chips. Grand prize is $1 million. So if you’re tired of Southern Style BBQ or Sour Cream & Onion, try your hand at dreaming up a new Lay’s flavor.
Hmm, I have a few good ideas, but I think they’re all too “niche” for a mass-market chip. I would very much like to eat:
- Smoked boudin chips
- feta & za’ater flavor
- nuoc mam & thai basil chips
- crab fat chips (my mouth waters just thinking of this one)
- andouille & onion chips
- roast beef gravy chips
I don’t see any of those flavors taking off nationwide, do you? But I would buy ’em….

Something with bacon will win. Bacon & green chile?
You are right on the money with bacon….but I happen to dislike “bacon” flavored non-bacon items. It’s always an odd, artificial smoky taste unlike any bacon I’ve ever consumed. Maybe a cheese flavor will carry the day…..or how about bacon and blue cheese?
Feta and za’atar sounds awesome …
Doesn’t it? I would like some feta and za’atar chips right now. And how about roasted lamb flavored chips? If we can have “buffalo wing” chips and “mesquite steak” chips, why not roasted lamb? I know some folks who would go nuts for chicken shwarma chips (not gonna name any names).
Lays Tangy Cheese or
Lays what’s the Dill Pickel
Zapps has a dill flavor, and it seems like I saw a Lay’s limited edition pickle flavor a few years back. I think a parmesan chip could be tasty….
How about Wasabi flavor.
Ackee and Saltfish
Hibachi Steak Medium Rare
Cuban Empanada
What about Chili Cheese Fries!!!
bacon
I found plenty of bacon flavored crunchy snacks at a Polish market in suburban Detroit: https://bouillie.us/2009/07/28/de-tour-polish-bacon-snacks/
steak chips or steak pototoes chips
Zapps has a mesquite steak flavor.
how about peanut & jelly
how about bacon&ranch or bacon&sour cream sounds good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pringles has a bacon ranch flavor, but I must say that it is disgusting. Not a good translation of “real world flavor” to “chip flavor” at all.
the world loves cheese burgers, so thats it? cheese burger all the way favor.
Both Doritos and Walkers have done limited edition cheeseburger flavors.
I think the Garlic Fries flavor would be just incredible!
PopChips’ garlic parmesan flavor is pretty tasty.
CHOCOLATE COVERED CHIPS
You can buy chocolate covered Zapp’s potato chips at Blue Frog Chocolates, 5707 Magazine Street, in uptown NOLA. http://www.bluefrogchocolates.com/
YES I LOVE CHOCALATE
Avocado, Tomato, Black Pepper.
I’ve tasted guacamole flavored tortilla chips, but I don’t believe I’ve ever seen an avocado potato chip.
Pumpkin pie chips …… That’s a Snack chip…
Chipotle honeymustard… mmm!
Sweet, salty, hot, and tangy: you might have a winner…
What about ” Lays Extra Butter Chips “?
Lays with basil, garlic and asiago cheese.
breakfast burrito

onion ring chips
cheese burger flavor
lAYS OLD BAY CHESEPEAKE WINGS
Doesn’t a chip company in the mid-Atlantic states make an Old Bay flavored chip? Herr’s brand chips, IIRC.
anise flavor
Ugh, anise/licorice is NOT my idea of a potato chip flavor! Now, if it were fennel instead of anise, I can conceive of a porchetta-flavored potato chip…fennel, garlic, rosemary, black pepper, & roasted pork.
so what about Strawberry and vanilla
Are you making potato chip suggestions or ice cream flavors? LOL.
How about crushed fennel seeds sugar.
Johnna Lewis : I love “wasabi peas” What about Hot Wasabi Peas or Hot Musturd or Horse Raddish flavors.
I think maybe sweet potato chips would be a nice idea! Salty sweet potato chips by Lays!
Beer and Brats flavored Lays for all the sports fans! Its different!
Lasangna flavored Lays chips!
Saurkraut flavored lays! A blend of sour and salty flavors!
Plain Lays with black pepper! Just a new twist to an original!
Roasted garlic lays! Salty, with a hint of garlic!
Salty Roasted pumpkin seed Lays! For the fall!
habanero peppers salt and potatoes simply yet it will appeal to all of us who like the hot stuff.

How about french fries and ketchup or big mac
Another Herr’s flavor: ketchup chips: http://www.herrs.com/products/chips/ketchup.html
