Cheesy Italian Potato Chips

Subway Canada Teamed Up to Create Lay’s Italian Herbs & Cheese

Created in a partnership between Subway Canada and Lay’s, this cheesy, savory, herbaceous chip snack entices Canadians who crave new ways to savor familiar flavors, and want to see how the restaurant’s signature in-house baked bread stacks up against the chips inspired by their aroma and taste.

Thanks to their intentional flavor throughline, Subway Canada's Italian Herbs & Cheese bread and Lay’s Italian Herbs & Cheese potato chips make a pairing that turns a casual lunch order into a cohesive flavor experience.
