Ayala explains that he went to the store to grab some munchies and decided on a bag of Lay’s potato chips. After returning home, he began shaking the bag, which sounds empty save for a few chips.
“Do you hear that?” he asked, shaking the bag again. “I was in a rush.”
Once he opened the bag, he showed the camera and there was only a piece of a chip inside. The bag was just filled with air.
“I paid $1…I paid a fucking $1 for this,” he screams.
In the comments section, users made jokes and told him to contact Frito Lay.
“A dollar for premium air,” one user commented.
“Sis, call LAYS IMMEDIATELY and get LAYS 4 life,” another suggested.
“We really used to say it’s all air, they really said I’m bout to show y’all all air,” a third user joked.
