Lay's Oven Baked Bar-B-Q Potato Chips

Lay's is one of the most recognizable snack brands globally, originally founded in the United States by Herman Lay in 1932. The brand merged with Frito in 1961 to form Frito-Lay, which subsequently merged with Pepsi-Cola in 1965 to create what is now known as PepsiCo. The 'Oven Baked' line, featured here in an English-French bilingual Canadian package, represents a healthier alternative to traditional fried chips by offering a reduced fat content.

Today, Lay's products are manufactured in dozens of countries including Canada, the United States, and various international locations to serve local markets. In the Canadian market, the brand is managed under the Frito-Lay Canada division, which operates several manufacturing facilities across the country to ensure local supply and freshness. PepsiCo remains the ultimate owner, standing as a global leader in the food and beverage industry with a headquarters in New York.
