Lays introduces new Sweet & Spicy Honey flavored chips inspired by 'Love is Blind' couple: 'A Swicy twist'
The 'Love Is Blind' couple said the snack reflects their 'sweet and spicy personalities'
Lay's is introducing potato chips that taste "swicy" – a combination of sweet and spicy – and are inspired by a popular "Love Is Blind" couple.
The potato chips brand announced the new Sweet & Spicy Honey potato chips product in a press release on Wednesday.
Lay's worked with Cameron Hamilton and Lauren Speed-Hamilton, a couple featured on season 1 of "Love Is Blind", to develop a chicken tenders recipe that incorporates the new snack product.
"After five years of marriage, the couple is sharing their ‘Marry Me’ meal – the dish that sealed the deal for their relationship," Frito-Lay explained in its press release.
"But this time, they're adding a Swicy twist to the viral 'Marry Me' meal trend by featuring Lay's Sweet & Spicy Honey flavored chips as the main ingredient."
