SunChips' compostable bags get quieter

PURCHASE, N.Y. — After complaints about Frito-Lay's noisy biodegradable bags for its SunChips brand were made loud and clear by consumers, the bags now deliver the same eco-friendly message on a quieter scale.

SunChips unveiled its hushed compostable bags and has asked consumers for feedback on its Facebook page. So far, the feedback has been positive.

SunChips launched the original compostable bag in 2009. The bags are part of the brand's committment to developing sustainable packaging solutions, SunChips and Frito-Lay said.
