Dick's Hot N' Spicy potato chips have been created as the tongue-in-cheek brand's latest flavor that will provide snackers with a delicious and funny option to pick up this fall.
The chips feature Dick's signature chip recipe, which is covered in a hot and spicy seasoning to offer a burst of flavor in every bite. The chips are expected to be right at home within the brand's existing flavor options, which includes Sweet Smoky Barbecue and Salty, and come in 2.75-ounce bags priced at $2.99 each.
Proprietor Jason Bullock commented on the Dick's Hot N' Spicy potato chips saying, "Our customers have told us countless stories about laughing with their friends over a bag of Dick’s. When you’re eating potato chips, you’re probably having fun with friends and family. Dick’s is the only brand that becomes part of that experience as people joke about the name and slogan. Grocery stores, convenience stores, breweries, and bars have picked up on this, and we’re now thriving at more than 25 locations in Cincinnati and Dayton, with more coming.”
