And today the Frito-Lay empire is worth more than $13 billioin dollars. A YT person like Herman Lay could sell the chips in the south out of his car in the 1920s, but they would have strung up a brotha just for thinking about doing it.
I don't eat chips often, but I"ll think of George Crum the next time I have some.
I GAVE UP BUYING/EATING POTATO CHIPS FOR HEALTH REASONS, BUT 20 YEARS AGO I WAS A POTATO CHIP EATIN', SPRITE/COCA COLA SWIGGIN', HOSTESS CUPCAKE (ONLY THE YELLOW/ORANGE ONES) EATIN' UNHEALTHY EATING MESS! THANK YOU MR. GEORGE CRUM FOR INVENTING ONE OF MY FORMER FAVORITE SNACKS, & SNITCH FOR CONTINUING THESE BLACK HISTORY FACTS!
I love using him to teach my students about the origin of the potato chip. I’m still a chip eater today. Can’t have a sandwich without a bag and Pepsi. That’s my guilty pleasure meal.

And he did not make the big bucks of today off his invention. Yt's took his invention and made it their own.

Cool facts. I don't eat them as much anymore, either, but I love me some Pringles.
Brother Crum look like he made it to the bag to me. He dressed clean af in this pic and he opened his own restaurant.

I don't like Pringles! They just don't do it for me. I like Better Made chips (Whatupdoe!) with a sandwich.
