The BAKED Lay's Footlong at Subway Has a Crispy, Crunchy Layer

— March 7, 2023 — Lifestyle
In celebration of National Potato Chip Day, Lay's teamed up with Subway to create the BAKED Lay's Footlong, a 12-inch crisp. This extra-long chip was mindfully made to be the perfect size for the Subway Series footlong and it adds a layer of crunch to the sandwich.

This collaboration can only be experienced on one day (March 14th) exclusively at a Subway restaurant in Frisco, Texas. Guests who purchase a Subway Series footlong meal can add on a BAKED Lay's Footlong, free of charge, while supplies last.

Potato chips make a surprisingly delicious addition to sandwiches, adding a crunchy texture and a salty flavor that elevates an ordinary mealtime experience. Already, many consumers are in the habit of adding potato chips to their sandwiches but this crispy creation is perfectly optimized for a classic sub.
