Lay's Turned the Whole Holiday Table Into Chips

Lay's just turned the whole holiday dinner table into chips, and honestly, the table had it coming.

The new Holi-Lay's lineup has five limited-time flavors, rolled out in waves so you have to keep going back. Late October brings Cheddar Scalloped-Style Potatoes, which takes the creamy, cheesy side dish everybody fights over and puts it on a chip, and Roasted Holiday Turkey, built on roasted turkey and rich gravy flavor with a hint of stuffing in there too.

A potato chip wearing chocolate and pistachio is either a stroke of genius or a cry for help, and I respect it either way.

Then on November 8, Maple Bacon finally makes its U.S. debut. That one has been a fan favorite in other countries, sweet maple up front with smoky bacon behind it. And because Lay's clearly lost all restraint this year, December 1 brings dessert: Wavy chips covered in milk chocolate, and a Dubai-style dark chocolate version with pistachios on the outside.

There is also a Happy Holi-Lay's sweepstakes starting October 26 if you scan the code on the bag. Five flavors, three months, one very crowded chip aisle. Plan accordingly.
