Tostitos has added another flavor to its line of tortilla chips: habanero.

To help spread word of the new product, the Frito-Lay brand has enlisted actors Kate McKinnon and Dan Levy to star in an ad campaign. The duo recently worked together on Saturday Night Live. McKinnon is a longtime cast member. Levy hosted the show on Feb 6.

In one spot set to run on digital channels and linear TV, McKinnon and Levy try to outdo each other with quips and gestures aiming to describe the spiciness of Tostitos habanero chips.
