Wassaaaaabi!

Lay's Kettle Cooked Wasabi Ginger




These had a strong wasabi flavor and a decent amount of pickled ginger. Overall I thought they were pretty good and would be a reasonable addition to their regular product line.

Breakfast?

Lay's Southern Biscuits and Gravy




The weird thing about this flavor was that at first it didn't taste like much. Then I could suddenly taste greasy biscuits, and then the gravy. Then there was an aftertaste of sausage. Cindy refused to try them.

Eat these with a Reuben and the universe will explode

Lay's New York Reuben




The really disturbing thing about this flavor is that you can taste the rye bread. Cindy noted that she could still taste it the next morning despite eating Indian for dinner, tooth brushing, etc.

Doritos are Din-a-mita!

Doritos Dinamita Chile Limón




These were in the vending machine at work. They're strange and very spicy - almost excessively so.

Disturbingly Accurate

Pringles Food Truck Flavors Cheese Burger




These tasted exactly like a McDonald's cheeseburger, right down to the diced onions and pickles. Actually, I kind of like them.

Zombies are Hot!

Takis Zombie


Great googly-moogly, these things are hot!  Alex and I found them to be painful, but strangely compelling.

Who thought this was a good idea?

Lay's Cappuccino




These weren't not bad, but they weren't good either. Not salty enough to be a potato chip type snack, and not sweet coffee enough to be a sweet snack. Instead they come across somehow as boring and wrong at the same time.

Error 404: Flavor not found


Doritos Jacked Test Flavor 404




I'm still not sure what this flavor was. It had hints of lime and maybe mesquite smoke. The ingredients included lime and orange "solids". Not bad, but nothing all that memorable.
