🥟 Lay’s potato crisps owned by PepsiCo

✍🏻 Whenever you’re thinking of potato crisps, you’re probably thinking of Lay’s. With its ever-changing flavours, the brand is constantly owning the crisps game. PepsiCo owns several patents for potato varieties that are used in making Lay’s crisps. These potatoes have lower moisture content, contributing to their great taste and texture. PepsiCo also protects the wavy design of their Lay’s crisps, which is why we don’t see other crisps produced by other crisps makers look like theirs.
