Frito Lay Uses Sunflower Oil

Frito Lay has spent several million dollars to build up a farming operation that can continuously provide enough sunflower oil to use in all of their chips. Sunflower oil apparently has no trans fat and has the good cholesterol. I wonder if we'll start to see more sunflower oil in stores? Of course this improvement is plastered all over their bags of chips, but I tend to ignore a good deal of packaging and advertising.

Props to them for taking this initiative a while back. And props to their new development in fruit chips and other healthy snacks. The big guys are moving into the healthy(er) snack market; it might be worth taking a look at Frito Lay's stock. Those Sun Chips I just ate did taste healthier, healthy enough to have 3 servings...
