Potato chip flavors all over the world

I’ve seen these in Hanoi airport - was too stressed re flight delays to take a photo!

There was a place called, honest to God, Herbert’s Potato World that was in some mall food courts in the 80s—they had chocolate-covered potato chips, though I can’t remember if I ever actually tried any. Still the only place I’ve seen making their own potato chips in a mall, I think.

The Zapp’s Cajun Crawtators—one of my favorite chips, and just in case it’s not clear, they’re not crawfish-flavored, they’re crawfish-boil-seasoning-flavored. Like Old Bay with more spice and less celery seed.

Of course, that makes me wonder: are the Herr’s Baby Back Ribs chips meant to be rib-flavored, or just barbecue-sauce-flavored?

(corn tortilla chips, still chips)

in Ontario

That’s funny, because sour cream & onion seems like a very American potato chip flavor.

Lay’s Sour Cream and Onion is common here in Canada, too. Regular Sour Cream and Onion chips were located a few chip flavours over from the Lay’s Cream and Onion. If I see a smaller bag of Lay’s Cream and Onion, I’ll let you know how it compares to regular Lay’s Sour Cream and Onion.

It will be funny if it is the same product, selling under 2 names.

Seen at Aldi and Mallwart, respectively.

Didn’t buy either.

Did pick up the tzatziki & the feta chips, which are both bomb. Salt bomb(s) :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Haven’t had the Guinness ones yet, either.

Seen at Aldi today. Did not get. Wtf does “shamrock extract” taste like, anyway?

In an Indian supermarket:

Not sure what’s West Indian about this flavour.

And I’m not sure what’s so amazing about pink Himalayan sea salt :thinking:

What’s interesting is that West Indian in Canada generally means the food of the West Indies in the Carribean, not the Western side of India.

We have a Hot ‘n’ Sweet Chili Lay’s, too, which I haven’t tried. (The US probably does, too)

We also have these

Means the same thing in the US too.

These were very good. Dehydrated truffle is in the ingredients list, but so is artificial flavor, so there may be some “truffle oil” as well. Better than the Torres version, at half the price.

Cup Noodles Tom Yum Goong flavor. Not bad, tastes vaguely tom tum goong like.

That’s what I meant too - it says West Indies’ on the packet, so perhaps I should have said that too to avoid confusion! And I’m sure that’s what this flavour name means to convey. The West Indies is well known in India for its cricket team, so somehow tagging that name onto a hot and sweet flavour is meant to drawn in the Indian consumer?

What is funny is that the similar Lay’s flavour in Canada is billed as a “Flavours from India”, not of the “Flavours of the West Indies”.

I would have thought a Lay’s West Indies chip might be flavoured like jerk chicken, beef patties, Trinidadian doubles, or curry chicken.
