After being discontinued back in 2018, Fritos Bar-B-Q corn chips are back by overwhelmingly popular demand.
Fritos Bar-B-Q are a seasoned BBQ-flavored take on classic Fritos corn chips. Unfortunately, the chips were discontinued in 2018—much to the dismay of many fans. But thanks to Change.org page and 21,838 signatures, the BBQ chips are back. Frito-Lay has confirmed that the products will be available exclusively from Dollar General in once-ounce bags and 9.25-ounce bags. Sadly, Fritos Bar-B-Q will only be available for a limited time so you'll want to stock up while you still can.
And while you're stocking up on Fritos Bar-B-Q, you can also pick up some Fritos Salutes in seasonal patriotic-themed packaging and proceeds going to the charitable organization Carry the Load.
