We have these at some stores in Ontario, Canada. Sobeys, Loblaws, Superstore.
Zapp’s rules! Even after the Utz purchase. In fact, that led to amazing Voodoo pretzels. Addictive.

We think (we think) we caught from the corner of our eye the Zapp’s plant in Gramercy on the way to the airport a long time ago. Coulda, shoulda, woulda made time to find out whether tour and tasting were offered. So much for being scout-prepared.

Paprika is or used to be the basic German potato chip flavor. I’ve seen the pizza pepperoni and bbq flavors here in Berlin, too.

That does not sound appealing at all… but at least they’re not sweet.

One of my sons went to JMU so every time I traversed I-81 I’d stop to sample and buy bulk bags of chips. So glad he graduated in 4 years to put me outside of the range of temptation.

It’s scary how much these Czech chips taste like jalapeno poppers: https://www.universalyums.com/product/bacon-jalapeno-chips.

I stumbled across a small Asian snack store during a walk around downtown Benicia, CA. The number of Thai Lay’s flavors was overwhelming; the only reason I got these two was that they sounded so different. “Boat Noodles” is a very rich beef soup; while I’ve never had it, I think these chips capture whatever that essence is very well.
BTW, the Chinese Oreos are pear and osmanthus flavor. They also had fig & matcha, matcha ice cream, rose, and red hawthorn.
