My Forking Thoughts on Thailand Lay’s Potato Chips – Sweet Basil, Extreme Hot Chili & Salted Egg

I thought it would be fun to try some foreign Lay’s Potato Chips that I can’t buy here in America. Thailand seemed to offer the most flavors at reasonable pricing so I tried a few bags. I liked that these are extra small snack bags. They only contained HALF OUNCE of potatoes chips in each bag.

The first one I’m trying is the Salted Egg Flavor.

I open the bag and take a whiff…..It smells sort of like an egg yolk.

I taste a chip.

It has a nice texture. It kind of taste like it was rubbed with an egg yolk…..It’s not bad…but it’s not a chip that I crave….But not bad…so that’s a win! (Ok-Good)

The back of the bags do have the ingredients in English but they are very hard to read.

Now I’ll try the Extreme Hot Chili Flavor.

I open up the bag and spill some out. These smell kind of good….sort of cayenne pepper. I eat one. YES very hot but it doesn’t hurt or sting. Yipes they do build with heat…..still good…not bad…another win. (OK-Good)

I was saving the Sweet Basil for last because I thought it would be my favorite since I love sweet basil.

I open the bag and take a whiff………I was expecting basil but this isn’t basil…….These smell strange. They smell like burnt cake. YUK! THESE ARE REALLY AWFUL! They don’t even taste like food. Sorry I can’t eat them. (The BIG SUCK!)

Just like American Lay’s the flavors go all over the place – from surprisingly good, good, ok, not so great and the big suck!.

Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Thailand Lay’s – Salted Egg, Extreme Hot Chili Flavor and Sweet Basil.
