I wish they would pull out of the American market because they are by far the worst chip we have. Overly greasy, no character, and just as expensive as premium chips.

It's gotten to the point where Doritos costs as much as the "fancy" kettle chips in the organic isle that used to be $1-2 more expensive a few years ago.

Pepsi Frito Lay is big enough not to care about the profits from one market globally. In Canada a couple years back they had a pricing dispute with the country’s largest grocer which resulted in all of their snack products being unavailable nationwide for that grocery chain. Pepsico increased prices during the heart of the pandemic and the grocer refused to pay the higher price so Pepsico just stopped shipping product to them. It lasted for 2 months, and in the end the dispute resolved with no benefit to the customer whatsoever. Lays, Doritos, etc. remain the highest priced chips in the store by a long shot.

From that article

Carrefour has been one of the most active retailers to challenge big consumer products and food companies over prices. Last year, the French multinational started a “shrinkflation” campaign of sticking warnings on products that have shrunk in size but cost more.

Incredibly based move from Carrefour. Guess I should shop there more often.
