Mexican-Inspired Chip Launches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Kettle Brand Expands Portfolio with the New Chamoy Chip

— February 4, 2025 — Lifestyle
Kettle Brand has expanded its portfolio with a new Chamoy-flavored potato chip, drawing inspiration from the popular Mexican condiment known for its complex sweet-spicy-tangy flavor profile. The new offering combines notes of lime, sweet pepper, and mango with the brand's signature kettle-cooked crunch, creating a distinctive snacking experience that aligns with growing consumer interest in global flavors. This innovative flavor combination brings an authentic taste of Mexican culinary tradition to the mainstream snack aisle.

This release follows Kettle Brand's successful track record of culturally-inspired offerings, including previous launches like Gochujang and Spicy Queso. The Chamoy variety represents the brand's continued strategy of incorporating trending international flavors into mainstream snack formats. Available nationwide starting February 2025, these chips demonstrate how established snack brands are adapting to evolving consumer palates through authentic flavor innovation. The launch also reflects the growing popularity of chamoy as a flavor profile in North American markets.
