Didn't they change the bag material recently to be quieter? I vaguely remember seeing something about that in the news.
Yeah they stopped using the more environmentally friendly bags and switched back to what they used before thanks to people complaining so much.
I thought it was because someone tested that bag and found out it wasn’t biodegradable?
SunChips sales dropped 11% due to the bag: https://www.packagingdigest.com/smart-packaging/frito-lay-withdraws-noisy-compostable-sunchips-bag
I doubt they would really care of the bag is actually compostable or not, that’s not the point. More sales is. If the biodegradable bag was not degradable but still increased sales I bet they would have kept it.
