I am a sucker for a novelty flavor. The more unusual to my palate, the better. Sometimes this is disastrous (Sakura flavored Lay’s) and sometimes, as with the case of Salted Egg Lay’s, a Thai variation on the classic chip, it is a delight.
There are two reactions to the salted egg flavor—revulsion or fascination. I’m the latter. The moment I saw a bag at the nearest H Mart, I had to have them....
I knew in an instant these were the chips I wanted to write about for this series. But what to pair them with? What else had this strong of a premise and stuck to it? What else was either exactly right for you or extremely wrong?
