Take a tip from Tim McGraw this summer: if you're craving some smoky flavours this summer but don't want to risking getting a barbecue stain on your white Tshirt, try a bag of Spicy Jalapeno Fritos Corn Chips!
For a limited time, the Grammy-award winning country singer is endorsing the crispy snack. McGraw will appear in TV commercials and have his handsome mug featured on bags of the "Official Snack of McGraw's 2008 Live Your Voice Tour."
"Fritos corn chips bring back memories of growing up in Louisiana," McGraw says. "We ate a lot of spicy foods and still do and these have a nice kick to them. With the support of the Fritos brand we are looking forward to a great tour; having the opportunity to introduce some of the best up and coming names in country music to fans across the country will make this tour even more exciting."
I can't help but think of the lyrics to Seventeen:
Legs hangin' off the Bayou Bridge/Feedin' fish potato chips/And talkin' about the mysteries of the universe
"As a true family man who values the important things in life, Tim McGraw was a natural fit for our new ad campaign," says Ken Partyka, Frito-Lay's VP of marketing. "Tim shares our passion for life's simple pleasures, and has his own fond memories of growing up with Fritos corn chips."
Before long, people might be saying, "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it" about these corn chips.
