Frito-Lay tries to enter minds, lunch bags of women

1. Will this new strategy work for women.
I think it will because if women are so self-consious about their weight and they want to snack but not hardly gain anything from it, then the frito products will be good for them.

2. Men, or think like a man, would this hurt your consumption of baked goods?
I don't think it would because the men are self-consious about what they eat and so they might want to eat the frito products to help burn their calories just like the women do when they eat their products.

3. Is frito-Lay making the right move here?
I think they are for the women.

4. What could they do for men?
They could cut back on some of their calories, so the men can eat their products to, if they are self-consious about themselves.
