As teams from around the world compete in the Fifa World Cup, we wanted to provide a way to connect fans over their love of the game – and love of snacks – to deliver even more smiles throughout the tournament."
All flavours will be available in retailers nationwide for $4.59 per 7.75oz bag. However, Lay's Adobadas and Lay's Bacon Wrapped Jalapeño Popper will also be available in 2.62oz bags for $2.29.
