How We Make Our FRITOS® Corn Chips
image promoting your health For over 75 years, we've been making FRITOS® Original Corn Chips exactly the same way. The recipe is as simple and good as ever - just corn, corn oil and salt. It all starts on farms across America where corn is specially grown for Frito-Lay to make our famously crunchy corn chips.

Here's how it happens:


Grow - Start with nothing but 100% American-grown corn.
Mill - Cook and soak the blended corn, and then grind up into a soft masa corn dough.
Cook - Cut and cook the chips in all-natural corn oil till they're crispy and golden.
Season - Add a sprinkle of salt and they're ready to munch.

The corn has now become America's favorite corn chips - ready to be packed up and delivered fresh to a store near you.
