Lay’s GUYDF Phase III – Launched the four finalist Co-Created flavours, a full fledged campaign was conceptualised by JWT Delhi.
Lay’s, through its “Give Us Your Dillicious Flavour’, a mother of all consumer engagement programmes in India (remember Lay’s received 1.3 million FLAVOR IDEAS in the first phase, not mere votes but flavour ideas from Indians), mobilised Indians to participate in an opportunity to Co-Create the flavor they like on Lay’s. Four Finalist flavours were launched.
This TVC does announce the four finalist flavours by Lay’s, but the story, as you can see, is woven around ‘Empowered Junta’ as Lay’s understands that the real power, these days, lies in the hands of Commoners who are cultivating a Point of View, who want their voice/opinions to be heard & counted …their overwhelming support, their biting/contemptuous remarks, their passion could create dramatic and unexpected swings in the fortunes…The Power of People can not be under-estimated. Lay’s, the Iconic brand, made Junta (Lay’s lovers, lovers of Potato chips in India) a part of this Co-Creation programme by urging them to TASTE the new four finalist flavours and CHAMPION their favourite flavour , CHOOSE N DECIDE the flavour that could stay on…..Lay’s captured the passion, the fear, the panic that people feel while saving their favourite flavour from vanishing….

I enjoyed both Hip Hop Honey Chilli & Cheesy Mexicana
and I admire how quickly Lay’s converted the flavour ideas into flavours, within 2 months or is it 3 months

Hi Prasad
did not find too interesting….that means interesting, to some extent
well, there is a mixed response for this set of co-created flavours from Lay’s. Hardcore Lay’s lovers tend to like its classic flavours like Magic Masala, American Style Cream and Onion more than these new ones.
n others like these new flavour concepts on Lay’s
I did try Hippo, sure the brand does come in some interesting western flavours, but I find Hippo too salty….a few pieces, one would be done
The salt content in Hippo is too brazen. taste preferences n flavour liking n salt intensity are quite subjective areas, n vary from person to person
having said that, I always find Lay’s chips great tasting ones with fabulous ‘chip experience’ and irresistible..you know you feel like having them more, and most do not meet this irresistibility factor!

i think the promotion is a really good idea but we need to be careful about the kind of products we promote esp foods .
with obesity levels rising, nad packaged food caontinaing more adn more harmful products we nee do to ensure that products like ships are not sold to minors else we will end up like the cigaarette case

Hi jyothsnay, Its entirely depends on personal preferences .. Hippo comes across as a much healthier option compared to lays considering its baked and lays is fried …While the some flavours are international, Hippo also has few enticing Indian flavours like Indian Chatpatta and yoghurt mint chutney .. I am a health freak and anything fried to me is a disaster recipe.
