The snack features clusters of Lay's potato chips that have been crushed together and paired with a touch of sweetness to balance out the saltiness. The snack is also infused with rice, almonds and finished with red and green nonpareils before being dipped in a chocolaty coating.
The Lay's Sweet & Salty Dipped Clusters are a limited-edition offering that will only be around the holiday season and are arriving now at a range of retailers. Shoppers can pick them up in five-ounce bags for $4 to $5.
