Talk:Sun Chips

message: The line 'Sun Chips are called 'Grain Waves' in Australia/New Zealand' has been taken out of the entry until someone can show actual links/proof that this product is available in those specific countries listed.  As of July 2006, Sun Chips are not available for purchase in Australia, and are not able to be imported. This is due to the lower fat content. It does not adequately preserve the product for the period of time it takes to to ship them (3+ months) and then stock them in retail stores.

message: <I>Recently, stores were informed that Frito Lay has been "rationing" the popular snack and the stores have been struggling to keep Sun Chips on the shelves as suppliers orders remain unfilled.</I>
I removed this line, as there's been a call for a cite up for a month that's gone unanswered.

message: Shouldn't it rightfully be pointed out that Sun Chips can be a delicious after-school snack that is low in saturated fat and sodium, and a deliciously satisfying addition to any social gathering? It's of course essential to any encyclopedic article to point out serving suggestions: in this case that Sun Chips go well with fruit juices, as well as particularly with Pepperidge Farm Goldfish brand cheese crackers? You bet: it is absolutely de rigueur!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.59.67.163 (talk) 23:52, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

message: This is the part of the article I took out, as it seems to much like an advertisment. I'm putting it here so that it can be reintegrated using less advertising language, perhaps even at a more appropriate location.
:Sun Chips donates $0.25 for each specially marked bag that consumers register at their website to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure in the fight against breast cancer, up to $420,000.  The brand also recently launched a new advertising campaign promoting the fact that it purchases green energy credits to offset 100% of the electricity needed to make Sun Chips, as well as starting to use solar collectors at one of their plants in Modesto, California.

replies: text: I think that should be included. It says a lot about their brand image (or at least their desired brand image). I won’t re-add it myself for now, though. —Wulf (talk) 05:09, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I just found, by accident actually, that the third reference link, which goes to frito-lays website is a 404.  I dont really know enough about wiki ediing to fix it myself, and i'm not even sure if i'm doing this correctly.  I still figured i'd let someone know about it.

message: I was surprised to see the article says Frito Lay introduced the chip in 1991. I worked for a direct mail marketing firm, Donnelley Marketing, from 1975 through 1997 that mailed out, amongst other items, product samples. I worked in the security building at the facility where high dollar coupons, product samples and other items were kept. I distinctly remember "Sun Chips" being a product sample we sent out, but it was not made by Frito Lay. It was manufactured by Quaker Oats if memory serves correctly. As Quaker is part of Pepsico - at least it is now - perhaps it was a sideways shift to FL since they're perceived as a snack maker. 
The reason it sticks in my mind is I was looking forward to seeing the product in stores which did not immediately happen. When the FL branded chips appeared I assumed FL "bought" the product from Quaker. The FL Sun Chips came out in the exact same flavors as the Quaker samples we had at Donnelley Marketing. Does anyone have information to shed more light on this situation? Thanks!THX1136 (talk) 21:23, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
