Like if I'm going to pay $9 Canadian for my chips anyway, I might as well buy the locally made brand or other premium chip.

“We’ve spent the past year listening closely to consumers, and they’ve told us they’re feeling the strain,” said Rachel Ferdinando, CEO of PepsiCo Foods U.S. “Lowering the suggested retail price reflects our commitment to help reduce the pressure where we can. Because people shouldn’t have to choose between great taste and staying within their budget.”
Um, you forced them to do that, you tone-deaf son of a bitch.

Artificial movement on the supply or demand curves will typically work back toward equilibrium...
Look who found the near side of the total cost curve.

When I initially readthe headline I was very confused because I hadn't been aware Pepisco had become a semiconductor manufacturer.

My local grocery store brand has a similar or better alternative anyway, and always cheaper.

If you've found one, do you have any leads on a Canadian brand that makes good All-Dressed chips? I'd definitely pick them on my next trip north.

Awesome! These look like they're available local to me only a couple miles away here on the wrong side of the border.

I don't think Old Dutch is a Canadian brand. Their headquarters are in MN.

Thankfully that doesn't apply to PepsiCo, because 90% of their snacks are the most mid shit on that shelf coasting off brand recognition and shelf space. If I want cheap, I get generic; if I want great taste, I get some other brand. If I want somewhere in the middle, I get Utz. If I want medium–high cost for medium–low-quality flavor and texture, I buy a PepsiCo product. And if I want to make the right choice, I don't get any of those.

Oh yeah you may be right. They have a way larger presence here so my impression was it's Canadian, let me fix that.
Minnesotans are as about as close as you can get to a Canadian so...

My favorite chips are store brand. Whatever store. They taste better and are cheaper. This started with Blue Bell BBQ chips. Long gone, but so good.

The only thing keeping them afloat is pure market penetration- it's hard to not maintain volume when you're the only one on the shelf of every mini mart.

Oh no poor people are our biggest market. How else will people in food deserts get their calories.
