# Dancing Chips Terra Chips Activated by Clapping By lourdes sanchez bayas | Published 2008-05-21 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unusual-jumping-chips-the-terra-chip References: [complex](http://www.complex.com/blogs/2008/05/21/clap-for-the-dancing-bag-of-chips/#more-12947) Terra Chips are really unusual chips. While in their bags, these [Japanese chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asian-style-chips) jump around when you clap, make a loud noise or shout at them. The bags are battery-operated and they sell for $14.00. These chips could come in handy on a lazy Friday afternoon at the office when you're just looking to slacken off until quitting time. Other than that, I don't see any other use for these Terra Chips. **Implications** - This unique product provides a very real and interactive form of [simple entertainment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/once-you-pop) during an everyday, mundane task. In this digital age, tangible, real-life experience is rare and thus, important to consumers who don't always have digital luxuries at their fingertips. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 15% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Interactive Snacks:** Creating snacks that offer more than just a taste sensation by engaging consumers through interactive elements. - **Haptic Marketing:** The use of touch, sound, and movement in marketing campaigns to grab the attention of consumers in an increasingly digitized world. - **Innovative Packaging:** Packaging that goes beyond its traditional function of protecting and promoting products to offer a unique and entertaining experience for consumers. ### Where This Applies - **Snack Food:** Opportunities for snack companies to create unique products that appeal to consumers' desire for tangible, interactive experiences. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Opportunities to incorporate haptic marketing techniques into campaigns to stand out in a crowded digital space. - **Packaging Design:** Opportunities for designers to create packaging that offers informative and entertaining experiences for consumers beyond the product itself. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Battery-Flavored Snack Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/9volt-battery-chips.md) - [Mess-Free Potato Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/future-of-potato-chips.md) - [Sensorial 4D Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levels-by-brent-rivera.md) - [Pea-Powered Protein Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/utopea-ah.md) - [Potato Chip Grow Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/potatogrowing-kits.md) - [Music-Driven Snack Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiktok-experience.md) - [Seafood-Flavored Snack Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fritolays-shaketoba-corn-chips.md) - [Energy-Boosting Caffeinated Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caffeinated-chips.md) - [Snack-Silencing AI Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doritos-silent.md)
