According to PepsiCo, the farmers aren't among the thousands who are authorized to grow the potatoes in question. These specially-grown spuds are the ones made exclusively for Lay's potato chips.
The lawsuits will be heard Friday in western India, and this matter could turn into a hot potato. Some small retailers in India say big companies, like Amazon and Walmart, are hurting their businesses.
PepsiCo is reportedly seeking nearly $150,000 per farmer.
