I’ve tried these and they’re very sadly and most definitely not extra crunchy 🙁

hmm.. I can hardly see how they can spend $4.5m on Ads for a new range of chips…
And seriously how much more crunchier can they get?

I can’t wait for the packaging re-design program in 18 months. Should be a cracker.
FMCG. Where good marketers go to die.
