I came across the Numb and Spicy Hot Pot of Lay’s Potato Chips at the Mekong International and Asian Market in Mesa Arizona. I thought that I had to give this interesting flavor of potato chips a try.

The bag looks like this on the back. It’s all in Chinese with a sticker of the ingredients in English.

Here are the ingredients.

It seems safe to eat so I open the bag and take a whiff.

It smells sort of liquorish with other aromas that remind me of fried Chinese Food.

The chips have ridges with a powdery coating. If you look closely you can see little dark specks.

Ok now I taste one….It is hot and spicy. I get mostly spicy hot at first but not too hot. I get spicy, salty and some sweet. It kinda taste like spicy Asian Fish soup. It’s not too fishy but is reminds me of fish essence…that is spicy and is mixed with flavors that are Asian Style. There is an allspice taste. The heat and flavors pass and the allspice builds……… It’s pretty darn good…..If it had less allspice it would be really great!

Those were My Forking Thought on the Lay’s Numb and Spicy Hot Pot Flavor Potato Chips.

Taste is subjective and your experience and package of chips may indeed differ.
