Lay’s Potato chip has a contest running right now for a brand new flavor. The prize: $1,000,000. This has brought everyone out of the woodwork with their crazy, not-well-thought-out ideas.
Along with the usual bacon-cheddar-guacamole-jalapeno-taco-pizza entries there were some that were way out there. Keep in mind these are supposed to be potato chip flavors.
Broccoli and chicken alfredo - Oh, yeah, cause that’s what kids are craving to snack on: dinner
Kentucky bourbon – This is excellent to get kids started early with their alcoholism
Peanut butter and jelly – Now there’s no need for mom to even bother making sandwiches for the kids, she can just hand them a bag of these chips
Irish corn beef – As opposed to the delicious English corn beef flavor potato chips
Cheese cake - Let’s put sugar and fat on top of our fat and salt
Tuna casserole – Uhm, when we open a bag of chips, we want to smell something pleasant
Salmon and lemon – Ditto for the salmon flavor
Cheetos – We already have a snack that is Cheeto flavored: Cheetos
Yams and marshmallows – I can’t imagine how disgusting this could be. The real stuff is bad enough at Thanksgiving
S’mores - Ditto for this one
Waffle syrup – And this one
Almond milk and almond chips – It’s amazing this hasn’t been done before because everyone loves almond milk so much
Omelette – Because an egg adds such a delicious flavor to whatever it’s in…..oh, wait
Beer apple tea – This individual needs to Lay’s off the beer
Watermelon and cantaloupe - Part of why you bother eating a watermelon is to slurp all its juiciness, this is kinda lost in a dry chip
Ocean fish – Okay, it’s not a contest for a cat food flavor
Then there were these kinds of entries, chip titles that gave no indication as to the flavor:
Flying Flavor of Lay – The Flavor of Lay? I don’t think I want to imagine what that could be
London Fog – This flavor would be an ancient street with essence of wet rotting garbage and vomit from local pub-goers
Tasty Hullabullo – Not sure what a hullabullo is, but Neosporin might help
Pobasies – This sounds like a milder form of rabies. “Good news! Turns out he only was infected with probasies. No need for you to have a bunch of painful injections.”
Gazpacho - This is cold soup. How is that going to translate into a dry room temperature chip?
Roasted Road Kill – I think this person was joking, but, then again, maybe not. I did once catch my neighbor’s kids hauling roadkill home around Thanksgiving (true story)
Pebie - No idea whatsoever what this is supposed to be
Death by Chips – These must be laced with flavor of arsenic
Crimson and Clover – Maybe this person doesn’t realize clover is not a spice and crimson is a color
Smokin’ a Bowl – And we have a winner! Marijuana flavored potato chips! Lay’s needs to get right on this now
If you want to get in on the fun, check out the Lay’s Potato Chip Flavor Contest. (You don’t have to have a Facebook account to enter.)
@Carolina- not tryna dictate how you run your blog, but it’s pretty fucking annoying when idiots keep posting on the same post from how long ago as if it’s some brand-new shit you posted yesterday. Blowing up my e-mail with notifications from this post is driving me nuts. It’d be nice if you begin to close comments and encourage those pricks to comment on your other stuff that is actually worth reading opposed to potato chips.
Kenny, I hear you. Thanks for letting me know about how annoying this is. I don’t know why people are posting here. Let me see what I can do to stop this.
ONCE YOU OPEN BAG THERES NO PUTTING IT DOWN ONE FLAVOR THATS ON MIND LAY,S CHILLI REGULAR & SPICEY,
Sweet potato, marshmallow & sea salt. Savory and sweet!
I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT, THE LAST DAY WAS ;10-05-12. ALBERTA REID
You folks already have the basis for th e next new chip. All you need to do is pass your unsalted chips thru a chocolate powder to create Lays Cholocate Chips
I’m not the Lay’s company. I’m a blogger who wrote about the contest.
I saw where there is a contest asking for the new “Doretas Chips”. ALBERTA REID
I think a good flavor would be (chiliie/ cheese, ) and another one is jalapeno pepper spicy or mild flavor, white cheddar chesse or have green chips for st patrick’s maybe irish creme , Have pink and blue chips for baby showers and red cinnimon and green peppermint chips for Christmas, Pastel colors just put food coloring on chips for Easter or have pink that taste like cotton candy., blue could be blueberry & yellow could taste like a lemon It will decorate the table the chips would taste good.
WHERE ARE YOU; CAROLINA COURTLAND? How do I enter this contest? It was very difficult to get my recipes in on 10-05-12! How can I enter this new?{Dorettas contest}

Cashew flavor lays chips
Asian sweet and sour sounds good to me, also.
My favorite is curry. Great favor.
I come up with three flavors : Paprika Cheese,Green Bean and Sour Cream, Butter and Bacon
how,about sweet and savory with cinniamon and brown sugar
Twice Baked Potato I believe this would be a great potato chip flavor. When I make my twice baked potato I use cheddar cheese, sour cream, parm. Cheese, bacon, pepper garlic and salt. This would be a real great flavor for your company for your next chip.

I could say something to that, but I don’t want to not be a lady.
Is this real or just bullshitting?
This is REAL. Those are real entries I took from the Lay’s website. LOL They are so bad, you think I made this up.
