1:43 actually there is a science behind the seasoning on the "less sodium" Lays. The lightly salted chips taste the same as the regular while having less salt. This is because the crystal of salt used in the lightly salted is different. We have actually studied these crystals and they are different than traditional table salt. And on top of all, Lays has patent the production of these salts. This is an engineered salt crystal which tricks your taste buds into thinking there is more salt than actually there is. Typically engineered salt crystals cost more to produce which will lead to a higher cost of the final product.

So its just KCl right? Everything that is low sodium uses KCl. Even low sodium salt shakers in grocery stores are just a mix of KCl and NaCl. Nothing proprietary.

@@mattsekira5536 Nope. It's sodium chloride. Just the crystal structure differs. The science behind it is pretty cool. It's basically a salt brine that is highly temperature controlled and they use salt crystal seeds that are different from traditional salts.These salt crystals are microscopic but they hit your taste buds in a totally different way than regular salt making you think that there is more salt than actually present.

Lay's was first sold in 1932 by a salesman Herman Lay in Nashville, Tennessee (U.S.). He was a traveling salesman who sold his chips from the back of the car on the road during the Great Depression. The inventor always believed in providing quality snack to the consumers at affordable prices.

From the UK. The first time I sampled 'Lays' (Cheese) was in a small spanish village back in 2002/3. I have got to say the spanish Cheese Lays taste way better than what I had become accustomed to ( Walkers) back in the UK. Strangest thing....fast forward 17 years later. Immigrated to spain for 3 years and could not find 'Lay Cheese and Onion' flavour anywhere in spanish supermarkets. Cheese and Red Pepper, Cheese and etc...etc...but not Cheese and Onion!.

Joe (10:17) got a 3rd brand of chips / crisps: SABRITAS. Just as in the case of Walker's Frito Lays bought that existing brand in Mexico and kept the name. And yes, Takis is a Mexican-owned and made competitor (now more available Stateside), but to Cheetos. Next, a similar comparison between the Lay's Stateside line and the Sabritas Mexican line...

I get that you need air to protect the crisps/chips from being smashed together in transport. However, I can vividly remember how as a kid that the bags were filled with LESS air and that the bags had MORE in them. I'm 100% sure that they started adding more air and less content throughout the years.

No. Here’s why I believe this. The manufacturers may have added less content over the years, but I think they have optimized the volume of cushion gas they pump into the bag before it’s sealed. Product delivery costs usually come down to weight, volume, and distance. Adding more padding air at the expense of product will not protect the product beyond a certain volume. At that point more air increases shipping costs due to shipping volume. Obviously the manufacturers want to send you product as cheaply as possible while making you a satisfied customer who will order again in the future. In other words, you may remember the product as being different in the past because variables have been optimized in the supply chain process. These changes benefit both parties. This reminds me of a homework problem in the Linear Programming course I took in college.

When her friends would come over, I literally called it the Bird's Nest seeing this British gals chirping away about everything. This just conjured up a really nice memory.

Couple of interesting points - Stax did launch in the UK not too long ago, but was discontinued (they were a bit meh compared to pringles imo). Also, on the point of the name "ready salted", Walkers do make a "salt and shake" multipack where you salt the crisps yourself! I'm a big fan of these but most people I know don't see the point.

In reference to the "very old days of crisps", whilst crisps were invented in the UK in the late 19th century (at least, a version of what we now call crisps) nobody thought to season/flavour them until the 1950s when the Irish manufacturer Tayto, which is the largest producer of crisps in Ireland (a nation so in love with crisps the company opened a theme park based on their brand, where you can also tour their factory and upon leaving are given a free packet of crisps) began producing their crisps with seasoning.

Really? Not Smiths? From Wikipedia: The company was founded by Frank Smith and Jim Viney in the United Kingdom in 1920, originally packaging a twist of salt with its crisps in greaseproof paper bags which were sold around London. Ps now owned by Pepsi, but still sold here with the little blue bag of salt to season.

An actual 'Prawn Cocktail' in the UK is made with the fancy sounding 'Marie Rose' sauce which is actually 50% mayo & 50% tomato ketchup, hence why the crisp flavour named after this 60s classic hors' d'oeuvre tastes of tomato.

I haven't lived in the US but am very familiar with Lays chips as they are the major brand in other countries I've lived in - Germany, Spain, South Africa and the Netherlands. In each country they have a different range of flavours tailored to local tastes, like Spitbraai Lamb in SA, or Joppiesaus in NL. Walkers however are not available outside the British Isles (UK and Ireland).

they're not available outside the UK because they suck and couldn't break into the foreign markets even if you gave then all the capital of Jeff Bezos! 😂 Seriously, as an Eastern European migrant to the UK, I positively hate their bland and shitty "crisps" - here's a half joking half serious review I wrote about them on another video: It's crazy how delusional Brits think they have a "wide variety of crisps". Like, 50% or more are ready salted combined with the disgusting "Cheese and onion" (that makes your mouth stink for hours) and "salt and vinegar" flavours, plus some other bland bacon flavours or whatever. Britain also majorly lacks other savoury snacks - back in Eastern Europe we had over a dozen crisp flavours anywhere (like paprika, sour cream and dill, extra hot wasabi, various cheese flavours and many others) plus dozens of OTHER savoury snacks - literally the only type of British "crisps" that I'd consider passable or comparable to the average flavours in my home country would be the prawn cocktail and ready salted ones. With how rich this country is by comparison, I just find it amazing how little of the much better continental food is allowed on the shelves of British shops and how many delusional locals are even proud of the narrow varietals of crisps here 😵 - it's like they love to self-impose shittier living conditions on themselves in a grand feat of national masochism! (like with Brexit and more recently Liz Truss) And yeah, jokes aside, there are Turkish, Polish and Romanian small shops in big cities like London that import decent savoury snacks (the Turks have some especially great ones - once you taste Peynirly Cubuk cheese sticks or Eti pizza/fish crackers, you'll never go back to petty anglo snacks! 😋😍), but they're simply impossible to find in most big supermarkets! Britain took the stereotype that their food sucks so much to heart that it even makes its "junk food" suck major balls compared to the one on the continent! 😂 (and probably compared to the one in America or Asia too)
