Breakfast’s long monopoly on all things both rooty and tooty are finally at an end! IHOP has realized its customers want a more savory opportunity to feel rooty and tooty, and they want that chance any time of day without going to a restaurant! IHOP is making all of that possible by partnering with Lay’s for another unlikely culinary crossover for the pancake chain. The two food staples have teamed up for a limited-time Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity combo flavored potato chip.
IHOP is turning its iconic breakfast option into a snack. Lay’s new Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity potato chips pack the flavors of strawberry-topped IHOP pancakes, maple syrup, and bacon on what Nation’s Restaurant News describes as “a light-textured potato chip.”
This breakfast-inspired nosh, which Lay’s teased weeks ago online as a potential prank, is the work of IHOP Chef Art Carl. He came up with the recipe in conjunction with Frito-Lay’s R&D and culinary teams to create the chip. We can’t confirm someone first came up with the general idea for them at three in the morning after a night of partying, but…
Lay’s and IHOP are giving customers a chance to win a bag on social media. But you don’t have to get lucky to get these. The special Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity chips are already available exclusively at Walmart stores nationwide, and small bags are available on Walmart.com for $2.48.
How do they taste? Despite them just hitting shelves, there are already reviews out there. They’re as mixed as this strange potato chip combo. Some people really like them while others definitely do not. It sounds like your enjoyment will depend on how much you appreciate really sweet strawberry mixed with salty potato.
And it also depends on how much you love feeling rooty and/or tooty in general. If you do, then no matter how these chips taste, this is a day you have long awaited.
