Frito-Lay Small & broken up!

Just recently purchased a bag of the lightly salted barbecue chips. We love Lay's & I usually like buying the lightly salted ones. I was not however happy with the barbecue ones. They were smaller than the regular chips & I got a lot of really broken ones which resulted in a lot of crumbs! How about making them the same size as the reg. chips? Maybe not so much crumbs? Thank You!

Frito-Lay Double check expiration date!!

I bough a 42 bag flavor box at walmart. First when opening it it ripped a bag and after my daughter and her friends ate a quarter of the box I grabbed some Doritos. Definitely stale and then looked at the expiration date and saw October of 2023... Here it is basically the first of September. This was my first time buying a bog box like this and definitely wont in the future.

Recommendation: If the expiration date is but then a month or two don't buy it!!

Frito-Lay Disappointed with the New Frito-Lay Corn Chips: Not the Same Magic Anymore

I gotta say, I used to be a huge fan of them corn chips from Frito-Lay. Man, they had this real tasty corn flavor that just hit the spot, ya know? And they were always nice and crispy, like a good chip should be. But lemme tell ya, the last couple bags I got, they just ain't the same no more. Somethin' must've happened, man. Maybe it's 'cause of this whole Covid thing, but they definitely changed somethin' up.

Now, don't get me wrong, they ain't terrible or nothin'. They're still alright, I guess. But they just ain't as good as they used to be, ya feel me? They used to be so dang addictive, like once you started munchin' on 'em, you couldn't stop. But now, it's like they lost that magic touch or somethin'. It's a real bummer, man.

I don't know what exactly they did different, but it's like they messed with the recipe or the ingredients or somethin'. Maybe they cut corners or changed suppliers, who knows? All I know is that the corn chips I used to love just ain't hittin' the same anymore. It's like they lost their mojo, man.

I mean, I'll still eat 'em if they're around, 'cause hey, a chip is a chip, right? But it's just not the same experience anymore. I miss that intense corn flavor and that satisfying crunch. It's like they took a step back, ya know?

So yeah, Frito-Lay, I gotta say, I'm a little disappointed. I used to be a loyal fan, but now I'm not so sure. I hope they figure out what went wrong and bring back that old corn chip goodness. 'Cause right now, it's just not hittin' the spot like it used to.

Frito-Lay Disappointed with Lays Potato Chips: Declining Quality and Unpleasant Odor

I've been a fan of Lays potato chips for a long time, like more than 40 years. But lately, I gotta say, I've been pretty let down by the quality of their chips. The classic ones, you know? They taste all stale and have this funky smell that's just not right. It's so bad that I can't even finish the whole bag. I used to think it was just a temporary thing, but it seems like it's become a bigger problem. And let me tell ya, I ain't gonna waste my money on Lays chips anymore. No way, no how.

Frito-Lay Disappointing Batch of Frito-Lay Chips: A Major Letdown for Fans of Classic Fritos Flavor

So, me and my buddies decided to grab a bag of Frito-Lay chips from Safeway, right? And let me tell you, we were super bummed out, man. The taste was all messed up, like they were cooked for way too long or something. It was a major letdown, dude.

But hey, we didn't give up just yet. We thought maybe it was just a fluke, you know? So we headed over to the Commissary on base and got ourselves another bag of those chips. And guess what? Same darn thing, man! The taste was off again, just like before. We started to wonder if it was some kind of batch issue, you know what I'm saying?

We took a closer look at the bags, and what do you know? The expiration date info was exactly the same on both bags. That got us thinking, maybe it was this batch that was all messed up. And let me tell you, we ain't gonna be buying any more bags with that batch info, that's for sure. It was a real bummer, especially if you're a fan of the usual tasty Fritos.

So yeah, if you're thinking of grabbing a bag of Frito-Lay chips, just be aware of this batch issue, man. It's a real downer when you're expecting that classic Fritos flavor and you end up with something all funky. Hopefully, they'll sort it out soon, 'cause we really miss those good ol' Fritos, you know?

Frito-Lay FritoLay Variety Packs: A Request for More BBQ and Plain Chips

We really dig those FritoLay variety packs, ya know? They're a real lifesaver when it comes to keepin' our chips fresh and tasty. The only hiccup we've encountered is the abundance of Doritos in 'em. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm all about that classic mix, but we could use a bit more variety, ya feel me? Like, throw in some more BBQ and plain chips, man.

So, here's the deal, right? A box of 28 packs comes with a whopping 6 bags of Doritos, plus an extra 2 bags of cool Ranch Doritos. Now, don't get me wrong, we ain't hatin' on Doritos or nothin', we actually kinda like 'em. But 8 bags of 'em is just a tad too much, ya know? We're all about that balance, and we reckon it's time to mix things up a bit.

So, FritoLay peeps, if you're listenin', here's a little suggestion from us chip enthusiasts: how 'bout tossin' in some more BBQ and plain chips in them variety packs? We'd be forever grateful, man. 'Cause let's be real, sometimes you just wanna kick back with a good ol' bag of BBQ or plain chips, ya know? It's all about that simple pleasure, my friend.

Overall, we're still big fans of FritoLay and their variety packs. They're a real game-changer when it comes to keepin' our chips fresh and ready to munch on. But hey, a little tweak here and there wouldn't hurt, right? So, FritoLay, consider this our humble request: more BBQ and plain chips, please! Keep doin' what you do best, and we'll keep snackin' away. Cheers!

Frito-Lay Frito-Lay's Constant Price Hikes: A Kick in the Teeth for Loyal Customers

Frito-Lay, they done gone and hiked up the price of them chips again. Can you believe it? Just a few months back, they already jacked up the price, and now they done it again. Used to be you could get a single bag for $1.49, which was already kinda steep if you ask me. But now, they want $1.69 for just one bag. Ain't that a kick in the teeth?

I don't rightly know what Frito-Lay is thinkin', expecting us loyal customers to stick around with these constant price hikes. It's like they don't care 'bout us regular folks who just wanna enjoy some tasty chips without breakin' the bank. Makes me wonder if it's all about corporate greed, you know? Feels that way to me.

Well, I ain't standin' for it no more. I'm takin' a stand and boycottin' them Lays snacks. There's plenty of other brands out there that offer chips at a more reasonable price. I'll be takin' my hard-earned dollars elsewhere and supportin' their competition. So long, Frito-Lay! You won't be seein' my money no more.

Frito-Lay Disappointed with Frito-Lay's Chili Cheese Fritos - Wrong Chips in Every Bag!

I just gotta say, I've been buying a bunch of bags of chili cheese Fritos from Frito-Lay's website, you know, like 175 bags, 'cause I run a business sellin' chili cheese Frito pies. But lemme tell ya, every single bag I opened up had regular Frito lays inside, not the super tasty chili cheese kind. Man, I was sooo bummed out! It ended up costin' my business a whole lotta money 'cause I couldn't give my customers the real deal. And get this, it ain't the first time this has happened to me. It's been goin' on for a while now. I reckon Frito-Lay must be under new management or somethin', 'cause they're slippin' big time. I'm on the lookout for a more honest brand that stays true to the taste. Thanks a bunch, you new slackers.

Frito-Lay False Advertising and Disappointing Variety in Frito-Lay Flavor Mix Box

I gotta say, I've bought this Frito-Lay flavor mix box of potato chips not once, not twice, but three times now, and let me tell ya, it's been a real disappointment. The thing is, every single time I get this box, it never has what they say it's gonna have on the outside. I mean, come on, it's false advertising!

So, here's the deal. The box says you're gonna get 2 sour cream & onion, 3 barbecue, 4 Cheetos crunchy, 3 Doritos cool ranch, 4 Doritos nacho cheese, and 2 chili cheese. But guess what? Inside the box, it's a whole different story. You only get 1 sour cream & onion, 2 barbecue, and 3 Cheetos crunchy. And get this, they overload you with 8 Doritos cool ranch, 1 chili cheese, and 4 Doritos nacho. Seriously, who needs that many Doritos?

I'm just a regular person, you know? I don't want all these Doritos. I just want what they advertise on the outside of the box. It's not too much to ask, is it? Frito-Lay, you gotta stop putting things inside the box that ain't advertised. I'm telling you, enough is enough! STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP! Please, for the love of all things snackable, just stop!

Frito-Lay Caution: Fritos and Lay's Corn Products Made from Animal-Grade Corn - My Terrifying Experience

Fritos and all of Lay's corn products are made from animal-grade corn, which is fed to animals that consume corn. This is something that needs to be addressed because I became extremely ill after eating Fritos. Lay's should make it clear on their bags that their corn products are made from animal-grade corn and that consuming them is at your own risk. I experienced four days of diarrhea and stomach pain. My stomach felt hard, as if the corn was stuck in my stomach and intestines. It was a very scary experience. I have decided that I will no longer eat Fritos. They are dangerous, just like any other corn that is fed to humans. It's terrible that a company would engage in such practices, although it's likely that most companies do, except for the organic ones. I was truly shocked to discover this information. Thank you.

Frito-Lay Disappointing Quality and Taste: Baked Cheetos with 50% Less Fat Fall Short of Expectations

Just bought my first bag of Baked Cheetos with 50% less fat. When opening the bag, I didn't get that delicious cheesy aroma that normally comes with opening a fresh bag of Cheetos. The Cheetos are normally well coated with the cheese flavoring; these were very splotchy due to the lack of cheese flavoring. The flavor verified that same lack of quality. My question is: how much of the 50% less fat part of the cheese your customers normally expect? You go up on price and reduce the quality of the product, my suggestion is either raise the quality to meet the price or drop the price to meet the lack of quality.

A good thank you would be like a good tip to a waiter at a restaurant. Therefore, I leave no thank you for low-quality products. I mean, come on, Frito-Lay! We expect better from you. I was really looking forward to enjoying my favorite cheesy snack, but these Baked Cheetos just didn't cut it. The lack of that mouthwatering cheesy smell when I opened the bag was a major disappointment. It's like they forgot to sprinkle the cheese goodness all over these Cheetos.

And let's talk about the taste. Or should I say, the lack thereof? The flavor was seriously lacking. I couldn't even taste the cheese! What's the point of eating Cheetos if they don't taste like cheese? It's like biting into a bland piece of cardboard. I don't understand why Frito-Lay would mess with a good thing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right?

Now, I get it. They're trying to market these Baked Cheetos as a healthier option with 50% less fat. But here's the thing, Frito-Lay. We don't want healthier if it means sacrificing taste. We want the best of both worlds. We want our cheesy goodness without feeling guilty about it. Is that too much to ask?

I have to say, Frito-Lay, you really dropped the ball on this one. It's disappointing to see a brand that I've trusted for years compromise on quality. If you're going to charge us more for a product, at least make sure it lives up to our expectations. Otherwise, why should we continue to support your brand?

So, Frito-Lay, here's my suggestion: either step up your game and bring back the cheesy goodness we all know and love, or lower the price to reflect the lack of quality. It's as simple as that. We, your loyal customers, deserve better. Don't let us down again.

Frito-Lay Disappointed with Lays Fritos: MSG Controversy and Lack of Customer Support

So, I recently bought a different kind of Fritos, not the usual ones, you know? And guess what? I found out that these bad boys had MSG in them! Can you believe it? And to make matters worse, I couldn't even return them because apparently, it's considered a "food" product. Ugh!

Now, let me tell you something about MSG. It's been banned in almost every major country out there, and even in most of our states. Yeah, we're a bit slow on some things, you know what I mean? This stuff is like poison! It can pass through the blood brain barrier and go straight to your noggin, destroying your precious brain cells. Scary, right? But you know why they still use it? Because it's one heck of a flavor enhancer, and that sells like crazy.

I used to think highly of the Lays company, especially when it comes to their regular Fritos. But this whole MSG incident really disappointed me. And you know what's even more frustrating? When I tried to contact them about this issue, I couldn't find a legit way to do it. I mean, seriously? The only option I had was to go to the library and dig through The Thomas Register to find their parent company's contact info. Talk about making things complicated!

So, here I am, writing this review to let everyone know about my experience. No more Fritos for me, folks. It's just sad to see that they're willing to poison people all for the sake of making a few bucks. Money talks, huh?

I recently purchased this item from my local grocery store and when I opened to taste this new flavor, I liked it and put some on a plate only to discover a bug crawling around in the plate, I killed of course it freaked me out, I then looked at a few of the chips, some had dark coloring as if eaten others had webbing on them, so disgusting I crunched them up and threw them in the garbage, I’m very disappointed as Lays are my favorite chip brand, I have three other bags and I’m debating if I should take them back or not.

Claimed loss: One bag of chips

Party size purchased. I have never purchased a stale bag of chips. These usually melt in your mouth. This bag is horrible. Kids crying and disappointed because they wanted their puffy cheetos.

I basically lived on these when I had dental surgery last year. 😁 I hope this is an isolated incident. Guaranteed fresh date is October 22, 2024.

Thank you for your time.

Frito-Lay Cheetos puffs

This batch had very minimal cheese, almost bare. Purchased at Citgo gas station Berlin CT., scan code # [protected], date on bag 11/21/2023 8oz.

Very dissatisfied, have bought this product since 1971, never experience cheese puffs without the cheese.

I am 56 years old and have remained loyal to this product, sending this email is is embarrassing, I never complain but when my grand kids wouldn't even eat them I felt it was in your best interest to inform you of this. I understand quality control plays a role, I wish going forward that I will not have to experience this again.

The world has changed but I would like to believe that your product wouldn't.

Many years of thanks,

Eric Cherry

Desired outcome: More cheese on puff, go back to the 70's, please and thank you, my grand kids and I would appreciate it as I have through the decades.

Frito-Lay Bring Back Bacon Cheddar Crackers: A Plea to Frito-Lay for the Ultimate Snack Reunion

or just a quick bite at home, Frito-Lay's Bacon Cheddar Crackers have always been our go-to choice. The combination of savory bacon and rich cheddar cheese is simply irresistible.

However, we were devastated when we discovered that these delectable crackers were no longer available. It felt like a punch in the gut. We searched high and low, hoping to find them in stores, but to no avail. It's like they vanished into thin air.

The absence of Bacon Cheddar Crackers in our lives has left a void that no other snack can fill. We've tried other flavors, but none come close to the perfection of the original. The crunch, the flavor, the satisfaction - it's all missing without these crackers.

We understand that companies need to make changes and introduce new products to keep up with the ever-changing market. But why take away something that brings so much joy to loyal customers? It's like taking away a piece of our snacking history.

Frito-Lay, we implore you to bring back Bacon Cheddar Crackers. We miss them dearly and we know we're not alone. Countless fans are yearning for their return. It's time to listen to your customers and give us what we want.

In the meantime, we'll continue to hope and dream of the day when we can once again savor the deliciousness of Bacon Cheddar Crackers. We'll keep checking the snack aisle, hoping to see that familiar orange packaging. Until then, our snacking adventures just won't be the same.

Frito-Lay, please don't let us down. Bring back Bacon Cheddar Crackers and make our snacking dreams come true. We're waiting with bated breath, eagerly anticipating the return of our beloved snack.

Frito-Lay Too Salty to Swallow: A Disappointing Experience with Frito-Lay Chips

Man, let me tell ya, these chips from Frito-Lay are like a salt bomb in your mouth! I mean, seriously, they're the saltiest chips I've ever laid my hands on. And let me tell ya, I won't be buying any more of these bad boys in the future. Ain't no way I'm putting my health at risk by munching on something this salty.

I gotta say, it's a real shame 'cause I used to be a fan of Frito-Lay. But these chips, man, they're just too much. I mean, I get it, a little salt is fine, but these chips take it to a whole 'nother level. It's like they dumped the entire salt shaker on each and every chip. Ain't nobody need that much salt in their life, ya know?

Now, I ain't no health expert, but I'm pretty sure that consuming too much salt ain't good for anyone. It can mess with your blood pressure and all that jazz. So, if you care about your health, I'd steer clear of these chips. Trust me, there are plenty of other snacks out there that won't leave you feeling like you just licked a salt lick.

But hey, maybe some folks out there enjoy that extra kick of salt. To each their own, right? But for me, I'll be passin' on these chips from now on. I'll be lookin' for snacks that won't make me feel like I'm swimmin' in the Dead Sea. So, Frito-Lay, you might wanna dial back on the salt a bit if you wanna keep folks comin' back for more. Just sayin'.

Frito-Lay Lay's Wavy Funyuns: A Disappointing Imitation of the Real Deal

Lay's wavy Funyuns ain't even close to bein' anythin' close to a Funyun. The Limited Time Flavor should have its time expired and be removed from production.

Let me tell ya, I was mighty disappointed when I tried Lay's wavy Funyuns. I mean, c'mon, they're supposed to be like Funyuns, right? But they ain't nothin' like 'em! The flavor just ain't there, ya know? It's like they tried to imitate the real deal, but failed miserably.

First of all, the texture is all wrong. Funyuns have that perfect crunch that makes 'em so addictive. But these wavy chips? They're just too thick and don't have that satisfying crispiness. It's like bitin' into a stale potato chip. Ain't nobody got time for that!

And don't even get me started on the flavor. Funyuns have this unique oniony taste that's hard to resist. But Lay's wavy Funyuns? They're bland as can be! It's like they forgot to add any seasoning at all. I was expectin' a burst of flavor, but all I got was disappointment.

Now, let's talk about this Limited Time Flavor. Honestly, it should've expired a long time ago. It's like they're tryin' to keep it around just to mess with us. I don't understand why they can't stick to the classics. Funyuns are a classic for a reason, ya know? They don't need any fancy limited-time flavors messin' things up.

Overall, I gotta say, Lay's wavy Funyuns are a major letdown. If you're lookin' for that true Funyun experience, look elsewhere. Stick to the original Funyuns and save yourself the disappointment. Trust me, you'll thank me later.

Frito-Lay Frito-Lay: Disappointing Chips and Dangerous Food Truck Encounters

Man, let me tell you about Frito-Lay. Now, I gotta be honest here, their chips ain't exactly my cup of tea. I mean, they taste like some real nasty dog $#*!. But hey, that's just my personal opinion, you know?

But here's the thing that really got me fired up. So, me and my family were out and about, minding our own business, when we come across one of them Frito-Lay food trucks. Now, I don't know what the heck was going on, but that truck nearly ran us off the road! I'm talking about a close call, my friend. It was a real heart-stopping moment, let me tell ya.

Now, I know Frito-Lay is all about making that dough, and hey, more power to 'em. But let me just say this, I can't wait for the day when they fall off the face of this earth. They may be raking in the cash, but they sure ain't winning any points with me and my family.

So, there you have it, folks. Frito-Lay and their chips, not my cup of tea. And that food truck incident? Well, let's just say it left a bad taste in my mouth. But hey, that's just how it goes sometimes, right?

All they do is keep increasing their prices. It's like they don't care about us regular folks who can't afford to spend a fortune on their overpriced stuff. It's a shame, really. I mean, they're making so much money, but it doesn't seem to slow them down one bit. It's like they're some kind of unstoppable monster.

I can't even afford to feed my family their products anymore. It's just too expensive. And it's not like they're offering anything special or unique. It's just your average snacks and chips. Nothing fancy or extraordinary. So why the high prices?

I really think they should be ashamed of themselves. They're taking advantage of hardworking people like me who just want to enjoy a tasty snack without breaking the bank. It's not fair, and it's not right.

I've made up my mind. I will never buy anything made by this company again. There are plenty of other options out there that are more affordable and just as delicious. So why bother with Frito-Lay and their outrageous prices?

I hope others realize the same and start looking for alternatives too. Maybe then, this company will finally understand that they can't keep squeezing every penny out of us. We deserve better, and we deserve snacks that won't empty our wallets.

Frito-Lay Outrageous Price Hike: Frito-Lay's Greed Exposed

Frito-Lay has gone and done it again, raising the price of their products. Can you believe it? Now, a measly single serve bag will set you back $1.89. I mean, seriously? Are potatoes suddenly made of gold? I highly doubt it. And don't even get me started on their drivers. I've heard from a reliable source that their income hasn't seen any significant increase. So, what gives? It's got to be pure greed, plain and simple.

Frito-Lay Disappointing Quantity: Frito-Lay's Box of Chips Falls Short on Promised Bags

I recently received a box of various chips from Frito-Lay, and I was excited to see what flavors were included. The box clearly indicated the quantity of each type of chip, but to my surprise, it seemed like there were fewer bags than stated. For instance, the box claimed there would be two bags of chili corn chips, but I only found one.

It was a bit disappointing because I was looking forward to enjoying the spicy goodness of those chili corn chips. I mean, who doesn't love a little kick in their snack? However, it seemed like fate had other plans for me, as I was left with just a single bag.

Now, I understand that mistakes happen, and maybe this was just a simple oversight. But as a customer, it's important to receive what was promised, especially when it comes to our beloved snacks. We rely on the accuracy of the information provided on the packaging, and it can be quite frustrating when things don't match up.

Despite this hiccup, I must say that the chips themselves were still tasty. Frito-Lay has always been known for their quality and flavorful snacks, and this experience didn't change that. The one bag of chili corn chips I did receive was still packed with that zesty chili flavor that I adore. It's just a shame that I couldn't enjoy it twice as much.

In the end, I hope that Frito-Lay takes note of this discrepancy and ensures that their packaging accurately reflects the contents of their products. As consumers, we rely on this information to make informed choices and to satisfy our snack cravings. So, Frito-Lay, please double-check those quantities and make sure we get what we're promised. After all, who wouldn't want more of those delicious chips?

Frito-Lay Disappointing Quality and Inconsistent Taste: Frito-Lay Chips Fail to Impress

The chips from Frito-Lay are not good most of the time. It seems like they are trying to save money by using less oil and including burnt chips in the mix. I bought three bags from the same store, and each one had a different and unpleasant taste. I paid a high price for something that is basically garbage. I have given Frito-Lay many opportunities to improve, but now I have reached my limit. I am switching to BETTER MADE chips, which I hope will be a better choice.

I have enjoyed Frito-Lay Jalapeno Fritos in the past, but for some reason our Safeway store in Stayton Oregon is no longer carrying this particular brand. Can that brand be brought back?

Our family is no longer going to purchase any product associated with Frito-Lay because of it's highly offensive "FU" commercial. Please join our family in boycotting Frito-Lay products until they discontinue this offensive commercial.

Variety box of chips back from Walmart. The dates are always almost expired in the last few times. I bought them the chips for stale, but not expired. Didn’t grab receipt so they won’t take back. Please replace
