There is a blockbuster that is returning to unleash your tastebuds - Ruffles KFC Original Recipe Chicken flavoured chips are back for the second year.  The brand promises you will experience 'MAXIMUM CRUNCH and MAXIMUM FLAVOUR' with each bite.

Ruffles and KFC return for an epic collab and 11 flavour-inspired tracks

To kick off the return of this delicious limited-time combo, Ruffles and KFC have dropped 11 Beats and Crunches a set of tracks featuring the tantalizing sounds of chicken sizzling and chips crunching, all inspired by the 11 herbs and spices that make up KFC Original Recipe Chicken seasoning.

Each track was created by combining unique, experimental sounds similar to  the unmistakable crunch in the Ruffles KFC Original Recipe Chicken flavoured chips giving you MAXIMUM crunch and volume. With beats ranging from hip hop and trap to dance pop and techno, these tracks are ready for Canadians to lay down their own musical masterpiece by adding their own unique remix or verse to the beats.

To play into the distinct flavour, Ruffles enlisted Canadian Canadian hip-hop artist, Connor Price, to layer his own remix onto the 11 Beats and Crunches and want to inspire Canadians to do the same. As a musician that puts maximum creativity and maximum energy into his music to release tracks that turn up the volume on traditional hip-hop music, Connor is the ultimate partner to put a unique spin on the brands’ beats.

“We’re taking this collab to a whole new level by bringing the iconic sounds of Ruffles and KFC to the genres of music Canadians love,” said Lisa Allie, Senior Marketing Director of PepsiCo Foods Canada. “We can’t wait for our fans to have just as much fun remixing the tracks as we had making them.”
