Ruffles and Fast X have announced a new partnership as a way to celebrate the upcoming film and provide snack lovers with a way to win some exclusive prizes. The partnership will consist of special edition Ruffled potato chip packaging with street racing vehicles from the film franchise and will be paired with a campaign to offer free tickets through Fandango alongside film merchandise. The campaign will see one winner take home a 2023 Dodge Charger R/T to help them live out their fantasy of being part of the franchise.
Senior Vice President of Marketing, Frito-Lay North America Stacy Taffet spoke on the Ruffles and Fast X campaign saying, "Ruffles is all about having confidence in your personal ridges—everything that makes you who you are.
