== 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.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Provencher|first=Liz|title=How to Get Your Hands on All Dressed Chips|url=https://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/all-dressed-chips|access-date=22 April 2021|website=Thrillist|date=19 March 2020 |language=en|archive-date=22 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210422152223/https://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/all-dressed-chips|url-status=live}}</ref> The term "all-dressed" and its French equivalent {{lang|fr|toute garnie}} originally applied to pizza, meaning roughly "everything-on-it", deluxe, or "the works".<ref name="Dollinger"/>
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.<ref name="Dollinger"/>
