About Stacy's
Stacy's makes baked pita chips, founded by a couple who began by turning leftover pita from their sandwich cart into a snack. Frito-Lay acquired the business in 2005 and it created the pita chip category in American supermarkets. Baking rather than frying gave it a health positioning that the rest of the snack aisle could not match.
