The juiciest, tastiest burger meets a one-of-a-kind crunch as A&W teams up with Ruffles for its latest limited-time offer, available now across Canada.

VANCOUVER, Sept. 16, 2024 /CNW/ - Name a more iconic duo! For a limited time, A&W and Ruffles are teaming up to bring you the Ruffles Crunch Teen Burger. The A&W Classic Teen Burger and new Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream potato chips are stacked into a craveable creation that delivers on crunch with every bite. This deliciously crunchy collaboration is also available in its equally tasty sidekick, the Ruffles Crunch Buddy Burger®, available for $4.99.

The Chip & Dip Inspiration
"My aim was to add a unique layer of texture to our Teen Burger," says Karan Suri, Director of Menu Development at A&W Canada. "Ruffles was the perfect choice for a crunchy and delicious addition. The famous ridges of Ruffles chips provide a real crunch and structure to the iconic Teen® recipe. Out of all the flavours, the cheesy notes of Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream paired perfectly with our Teen Burger. To complete the experience, I had to create the perfect dip for the chip, and drew inspiration from Ruffles ridged dippable chips to create the delectable creamy garlic and jalapeño aioli for our Ruffles Crunch Teen Burger."

A Delectable Collab : A&W x Ruffles
"Having been on the A&W menu since 1961, the Teen Burger is a true Canadian classic that generations of Canadians grew up enjoying," says Susan Senecal, CEO and President of A&W Canada. "We thought collaborating with Ruffles, a brand that is equally loved by Canadians, was the perfect way to bring a modern twist to our classic Teen Burger."
