Doritos
Doritos originated at Disneyland in the early 1960s, reportedly developed from surplus tortillas at a restaurant in the park's Frontierland area that were being fried and seasoned rather than thrown away, before Frito-Lay acquired the recipe and launched Doritos nationally in 1966. The brand became particularly associated with bold, unconventional flavor innovation, including Cool Ranch, introduced in 1986, and Nacho Cheese, and Doritos has continued releasing limited-edition and unusual flavor variations as a core part of its ongoing marketing strategy. Doritos became one of the most prominent brands in Super Bowl advertising specifically through its long-running "Crash the Super Bowl" contest, launched in 2006, which invited amateur filmmakers to create their own Doritos commercials for a chance to have them air during the broadcast, a genuinely unusual crowdsourced advertising model for a major national brand. Doritos's combination of its unusual Disneyland tortilla-chip origin story and its pioneering crowdsourced "Crash the Super Bowl" advertising campaign has made it one of the most culturally significant and commercially innovative snack brands in the industry.
VS
Lay's
Lay's was founded by Herman Lay, who began his career in 1932 as a traveling potato chip salesman in Nashville before purchasing the Atlanta-based company he had been distributing for and renaming it after himself, eventually growing it into one of the largest snack food companies in the American South. Lay's became particularly known for its long-running advertising slogan "Betcha Can't Eat Just One," and the brand's endorsement deal with former NFL quarterback-turned-broadcaster Bert Reynolds and later other celebrity spokespeople helped build significant mainstream advertising visibility for the brand throughout the mid-20th century. Lay's merged with Frito Company in 1961 to form Frito-Lay, and PepsiCo acquired Frito-Lay in 1965, giving Lay's access to PepsiCo's massive global distribution network and helping the brand grow into the best-selling potato chip brand in the world. Lay's combination of its founder's rise from traveling salesman to snack food executive and its subsequent growth into the world's best-selling potato chip brand under PepsiCo ownership has made it one of the most commercially dominant snack brands in the world.
