Ruffles
Ruffles was introduced by Frito-Lay in 1958, building specifically on the earlier innovation of ridged potato chips that had been developed and patented by a smaller regional company, Bernhardt "Bert" Kittel, whose original 1954 patent for "Ruffles" ridge-cut potato chips Frito-Lay's predecessor company eventually acquired. The chip's ridged texture was specifically engineered to hold up better under thicker dips than standard flat potato chips, giving Ruffles a distinct functional advantage for dip-based snacking occasions that became central to the brand's marketing positioning. Ruffles grew into one of the best-selling potato chip brands in the United States under Frito-Lay and later PepsiCo ownership, and the brand has released numerous flavor variations over the decades while maintaining its distinctive ridged shape as its core defining product feature. Ruffles's combination of its acquired ridge-cutting patent innovation and its sustained positioning as the go-to potato chip specifically engineered for dipping has made it one of the most commercially significant potato chip brands in American snack food history.
VS
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.
