Funyuns
is the brand name of an onion-flavored corn snack introduced in the United States in 1969, and invented by Frito-Lay employee George Bigner.
Funyuns consist primarily of cornmeal, ring-shaped using an extrusion process, representing the shape and texture of fried onion rings. A salt
and onion mix gives them their flavor. They are a product of PepsiCo's Frito-Lay company.
They were named "Funyuns" by University of North Texas professor and copywriter Jim Albright, after it was discovered that the first choice of
name for the product, "OnYums", was a registered trademark of Rudolph Foods. Initial television advertising for the snack featured a variation
of Susan Christie's 1966 song, "I Love Onions".
In 2005, the "window cutout" showing the actual product inside the bag was replaced by a photograph of the product, falling in line with the
design of the rest of Frito-Lay's product line. The big-bag Funyuns was one of the last Frito-Lay brands to completely phase out the "window".
In Brazil, Funyuns are sold under the name "Cebolitos".[3] In popular culture, they were a favorite snack of Jesse Pinkman in the AMC
television series
Breaking Bad.
