Herr's chips has unveiled a series of limited-time snack chips perfect for consumers to try out this spring and summer that pay homage to some of the most iconic flavors of Philadelphia-inspired cuisine. The snack chips are part of the brand's Flavored by Philly Contest and include the Talluto’s Cheese Ravioli and Marinara, Mom Mom’s Kitchen Potato Pierogi and Romano’s Stromboli flavors. Consumers can pick up all three of the potato chip flavors, try them out and vote for their favorite until August 9, 2024 to have their say on which one is the best.
Chairman and CEO Ed Herr spoke on the new Herr's chips saying, "Through the Flavored by Philly contest, we wanted to highlight small businesses and their unique flavors to give the people of our community a memorable experience they could truly savor. It was a challenging decision to narrow down to just three finalists, but we're huge fans of these three offerings and can't wait to hear the public's reaction to the flavor combination of these signature dishes with our chips."
