Every time Lays Potato Chips brings out new flavours (often part of ‘Do Us a Flavour’ contests), the Sip Advisor gets excited. Sure, some of the products produced are misses, but there always at least one option that hits the spot.

The Sizzlin’ Szechuan variety is pretty tasty with a sweet and spicy red pepper burn that lingers at the end of each bite. Also part of the line this year is Paprika & Sweet Onion, which Ma Sip has purchased, but I haven’t cracked into just yet.

In the US, 2017 ‘Do Us a Flavour’ options include Crispy Taco, Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese, and Fried Green Tomato, none of which I’ve experienced for myself. Of those, I think the Crispy Taco sounds the most appealing.

As for previous incarnations of the competition, I still like the Chicken & Waffles, Southern Biscuits & Gravy, and Creamy Garlic Caesar releases. Only the last of those three came from the Canadian-based promotion.
