History

While consensus is that the flavour first originated in Canada, it is unknown who or which company first introduced the all-dressed potato chip. Yum Yum, a Quebec-based company, is known to have created a variety of the flavour in 1978.^[3] The term "all-dressed" and its French equivalent toute garnie originally applied to pizza, meaning roughly "everything-on-it", deluxe, or "the works".^[1]

The term "all-dressed" extended beyond just pizza and found its way into the world of potato chips, where it refers to a combination of several different flavors: ketchup, BBQ, sour cream and onion, and salt and vinegar. Many early references to the flavour all-dressed are linked to pizza flavour potato chips.^[1]

An all-dressed chip called The Whole Shabang is produced by American prison supplier Keefe Group. It became available to the general public in 2016.^[4] Frito-Lay began selling all-dressed Ruffles potato chips in the United States that same year.^[5] Co-op Food in the United Kingdom began selling a limited edition all dressed variety crisp as part of their Irresistible range in 2024.^[6] Frito-Lay brought their All Dressed-flavoured Lay's potato chips to the United States for the first time in 2025.^[7]
