From the marketers:
"We're proud to introduce to the world the first bag of chips that gets you home safe," says Roger Baran, a Goodby Silverstein & Partners creative director. "For a football fan, there is a lot of emotion involved with a game. It's easy to drink more than you planned. And a lot of times all you need to stop short of driving after drinking is a friend who calls you off. On Sunday of the big game, we want Tostitos to be that friend."
"We designed the technology and the bag from the ground up and then had to scale it," adds Sam Luchini, also a GS&P creative director. "It had to function as a beautiful bag and also like an alcohol detector. It was form and function together."
"Our goal is to remove 25,000 cars from the roads that Sunday evening," says Jennifer Saenz, Frito-Lay's chief marketing officer. "Whether watching the big game at a friend's house or at a local bar, a safe ride home is just a few easy taps away. By simply entering a participating Tostitos UPC code in the Uber app, fans nationwide can receive $10 off an Uber ride."
