Thins

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thins is one of the largest brand of potato chips released in Australia and is owned by the Snack Brands Australia.

Thins were originally owned by The Smith's Snackfood Company who introduced the North American brand, Lay's to Australia under the Thins moniker, with the marketing slogan, Thins, not as thick as some. However after the product was sold to Snack Brands Australia, The Smith's Snackfood Company produced a line of potato chips under the 'Lays' brand name. Effectively, this results in there being two lines of potato chips released in Australia, owned by separate companies but effectively the same product, even sharing similar packaging since the Thins packet was designed off the Lays ones released in North America.

As with Lay's sold in Australia, the most popular flavours are Chicken, Original and Salt & Vinegar.
