Frito Lay

Frito-Lay responds to Trump:

Frito-Lay is delighted that our potato chips are bringing such comfort to people during these unprecedented and deeply confusing time. We’re proud of our chips, and proud of you, too! However, as we battle coronavirus together, it is important to remember that we must not mix fact with fantasy, or substitute our intuition for the hard-earned knowledge of science. With this in mind we would like to address the remarks President Trump made at his Daily Briefing yesterday: Although we are happy more people are buying our potato chips, we do not believe there is any evidence, as The President asserted, that crushing them up until they are a fine dust and snorting them, is a viable treatment for Covid-19. There is no proof, scientific or otherwise, to support this theory. In fact, it is dangerous to snort potato chips, even ones of the highest quality like Frito-Lay. So please, if you buy our potato chips do it to cure the hunger in your stomach and heart, not the coronavirus.
