Just Wrong (part deux)

Burger King "Ketchup & Fries" Flavored Potato Snacks
. These really do taste like french fries with ketchup on them. Extra greasy. Extra smelly. Extra messy. And the gas you get an hour later stays with you the rest of the day. . I'm sure when the marketing shirts came up with this, it seemed like a good idea. It is - if you're trying to give up eating nutritionless snack foods. One bag of BKK&F, and you'll be reaching for an apple or a celery stick.

Eww.

Jason did temping at the Oscar Meyer plant once back when we were first married, and he got to see all the products that didn't make it out to the public. One was "salami chips," which had a slogan of "The crunch of a potato chip with the great taste of meat." Yuck.

Well, here in Europe, we've had all sorts of flavours - Baked Bean probably being the best and 'Cheese and Bacon' being the worst.

For the avoidance of doubt, 'Prawn Cocktail' crisps are officially the worst ever flavour, but as they taste not even remotely like prawns some people still eat them for that battery acid, chicken feathers and washing powder taste experience.

But I digress. Hedgehog flavour crisps were the best *ever* ...

actually, Cheese & Bacon chips sound pretty good. I'm a bit leery of Baked Bean chips, though.

OTOH, salami chips and prawn cocktail chips have gotta be wretched. and putting in time at an Oscar Meyer plant sounds like working off some seriously bad karma from a previous life.

i agree with Amanda - the Hedgehog Chips link is way kewl. my apologies for thinking you were pulling our legs, K&Z.
