Rhea-AI Summary

HORMEL® Chili launches Double Dippable Chips, allowing double-dipping without social stigma. Consumers can win limited-edition Chili Double Dip Kits with innovative tortilla chips, chili, and a recipe. The debate on double-dipping continues with a live poll on ChiliDoubleDip.com.

AUSTIN, Minn., March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The makers of HORMEL^® Chili today launched Double Dippable Chips, the first "breakable" chips designed to allow people to double-dip into their favorite chili dips without committing a social faux pas. As the producers of the key ingredient in some of America's most popular dip recipes, the HORMEL^® Chili brand team introduced this inventive creation to help double-dippers dip to their heart's content.

The acceptability of double-dipping has long been a polarizing topic of snacking etiquette, as evidenced by recent surveys and across social media, where posts abound with arguments for and against the act of double-dipping. Now, the debate continues at ChiliDoubleDip.com with a live poll measuring attitudes toward double-dipping. Consumers can cast their vote here.

The makers of HORMEL^® Chili teamed up with a Minnesota-based specialty foods producer to create these one-of-a-kind tortilla chips, which feature a novel perforation down the center for an easy break, resulting in two even halves — perfect for indulgent dips. After rapid prototyping and some serious break-and-dip testing, Double Dippable Chips are now ready to meet some lucky winners.

Starting March 18 at 12:00 AM (Eastern), dip lovers can enter for a chance to win limited quantities of HORMEL^® Chili Double Dip Kits at ChiliDoubleDip.com. The party-friendly kits include a bag of Double Dippable Chips, a can of HORMEL^® Chili and a recipe for a delicious 7-Layer Chili Cheese Dip. HORMEL^® Chili Double Dip Kits will ship to winners just in time to enjoy during the upcoming college hoops tournament.

"When it comes to the food on the party table, dips are a star attraction," said Jason Hron, HORMEL^® Chili brand manager. "Given the idea of double-dipping remains polarizing, we thought it would be fun to create something that could satisfy both sides and keep them both dipping into some delicious HORMEL^® Chili Cheese Dip."
