Because walker's logo is derived from lay's since it's the UK alternative (or something like that).
They're both owned by PepsiCo, who own Frito-Lay.

loving massive bags of corn chips from the mexican store down the road yo.
I mean, they're like the size of my damn pillows and full of chips.  I also have the shopette, where everything is cheap as dirt.

Lays smell like ass

In the food industry, the practice of only halfway-filling containers with actual food is called "slack fill." Chip-makers want a cushion of air around their products as protection, because nothing sucks more than getting a bag full of smooshed chip bits, except maybe getting a bag full of empty, which is what it seems like sometimes.


The problem is that even though the FDA allows for some air space as food protection, sneaky manufacturers have been more than willing to abuse the system by halfway filling comically large bags with their products. So you think you're getting a big ol' bag of goodness when you're really not getting all that much ...

... and half a bag of chips.
In fact, the problem is so bad that several groups have appealed to the FDA to crack down on the chronic over-slack fillers -- not just because consumers are getting cheated, but because all that extra packaging is killing a lot of trees to basically package nothing.


One of my friends got a bag of chips from a vending machine at my old school.
2 chips.
2 small chips in a bag.
