Richmonder could win $1 million from Lay's for chip flavor idea
A Richmonder could soon win $1 million for her potato chips.
The big picture: Last year, Lay's — yes, the potato chip giant — asked its fan base to think of the next best chip flavor as a part of a contest.
They received over 700,000 suggestions, per a Lay's representative.
And Chesterfield resident Neelia Lynn is one of their three finalists.
Zoom in: Her idea is a sweet and tangy Wavy Korean-Style Fried Chicken flavor, inspired by her family's time in South Korea, according to Lay's.
Lynn is up against a Valentina & Lime proposal from a Californian and Bacon Grilled Cheese from someone in Oklahoma.
