Lay’s
Herman Lay was the one who helped put potato chips on the map in the 1930s. He would drive around in his Ford Model A and deliver chips for the Marrett Food Company. Eventually, he purchased the company in 1938 and renamed it Lay’s. His was the very first snack food company that bought television commercials. It had a celebrity spokesman, Bert Lahr. You probably remember him as The Wizard of Oz’s Cowardly Lion.
