US foodies find flavours of foreign chips hard to swallow

Shearer’s Foods LLC of Massillon, OH is voluntarily recalling two lots of 9.5 ounce bags of “Raley’s Salt & Vinegar Flavored Potato Chips,” because they may contain undeclared milk.

Recently Frito-Lay started a campaign in the US to show consumers where their bag of Lays Chips was manufactured and even where the potatoes for that specific bag were grown: the Chips Tracker. In the ads, Frito-Lay features potato farmers growing their chips potatoes in California, New England, Texas, Michigan and Florida.

Frito-Lay reported for the 3rd quarter a 9% revenue growth in North America, resulting from double-digit growth at Tostitos, Ruffles and Cheetos and high-single-digit growth in trademark Lay's and Doritos.
