Origin Story: The Lay’s Flavor Department is crossing the Pacific to bring a taste of the American South to Southeast Asia. While fried chicken exists globally, the “American style”, which is characterized by a heavy, seasoned breading and deep-fry, became a culinary cornerstone in the U.S., particularly in the South, evolving from a mix of Scottish frying techniques and West African seasoning traditions. This release joins the Fifa 2026 lineup, likely nodding to the U.S. as a tournament host.
