Lays announces wild new potato chip flavors to hit shelves this fall — including some surprising sweet treats

Your Thanksgiving dinner now comes in a Lay’s chips bag.

Lay’s has just announced its new Holi-LAY’S lineup — but you’ll have to wait to try them. The brand — which is owned by PepsiCo — will drop two new holiday flavors at the end of October.

The Texas chips maker will release the Cheddar Scalloped-Style Potatoes and the Roasted Holiday Turkey-flavored chips on Oct. 25 — the company even has a countdown on its site. Fans looking for a sweet and savory snack can also scoop up the Lay’s Maple Bacon chips, hitting store shelves on Nov. 8.

To wash it all down, Pepsi released a Vanilla & Cream soda, which brings the “rich vanilla and smooth cream flavors to the great taste of Pepsi,” the company said in a press release.

Sugar-conscious customers can get in on the new flavor as the Vanilla & Cream soda comes in Original and Zero Sugar in 12-pack cans and 20-ounce bottles.

“Pepsi has always known how to make great-tasting cola even more exciting, and our newest flavors are the latest example,” said Gustavo Reyna, vice president of marketing at Pepsi. “If you’re looking to indulge in a little treat this season, Pepsi Vanilla & Cream brings rich vanilla and smooth cream flavors to the unmistakable taste of Pepsi for something that feels nostalgic, new and undeniably delicious.”

Come December, Lay’s eaters also can indulge in two chocolatey potato chips — the Wavy Milk Chocolate and Wavy Dubai-Style Dark Chocolate covered potato chips.

The highly anticipated snack will be available in “select retailers” on Dec. 1 but then expand to more stores in 2027.
