Two savory flavors reached store shelves nationwide on October 25. Maple Bacon follows on November 8, and two chocolate-covered Wavy chips arrive at select retailers on December 1.

Maple Bacon Makes Its First U.S. Appearance
Maple Bacon is the only flavor in the lineup that has never been sold in the United States. Its November 8 release marks the flavor’s first time on American shelves, adding a sweet-and-smoky option to the savory side of the holiday collection.
Lay’s Positions the Lineup as a Holiday Gift
Lay’s is pitching the collection as both a party snack and a stocking stuffer. According to the company, 78% of consumers consider food a great holiday gift, and 55% prefer it over other types of gifts. PepsiCo Foods said the lineup is meant to give fans a taste of the holiday table before and after the actual meal.
