Product Insights
Original Baked Lay's is a plant‑based potato snack marketed under the Lay’s brand and falls within the “Salty snacks” group of the PNNS classification. The product carries a Nutri‑Score of C and is classified as NOVA 4, reflecting an ultra‑processed status; it provides moderate protein (7 g/100 g) and low saturated fat, but its sugar level (7 g/100 g) exceeds the average for salty snacks while its fat (11 g/100 g) and salt (1 g/100 g) are well below typical snack values. It contains soy lecithin (E322) and annatto colour, making it unsuitable for soy‑allergic consumers, yet it is free from animal ingredients and therefore suitable for vegan diets.
