Richmonder could win $1 million from Lay's for chip flavor idea

A Richmonder could soon win $1 million for her potato chips.

The big picture: Last year, Lay's — yes, the potato chip giant — asked its fan base to think of the next best chip flavor as a part of a contest.

• They received over 700,000 suggestions, per a Lay's representative.
• And Chesterfield resident Neelia Lynn is one of their three finalists.

Zoom in: Her idea is a sweet and tangy Wavy Korean-Style Fried Chicken flavor, inspired by her family's time in South Korea, according to Lay's.

• Lynn is up against a Valentina & Lime proposal from a Californian and Bacon Grilled Cheese from someone in Oklahoma.

What's next: All three options will be hitting the shelves next Monday.

• Fans can vote for their favorite from April 21 to June 13 at DoUsAFlavor.com.
• Whoever wins gets a whopping $1 million.
