Some of the UK ~~potato chip~~ crisp flavors I'm learning about are really freakin' weird to someone who comes from the land that invented them.
Prawn cocktail? Beef? Pickled onion?
And then there's this...
prawn cocktail fucking slaps though
For all I know, it is the greatest potato chip flavor in the world. America's range of flavors is surprisingly limited.
They sound fucking delicious. Mackie's ice cream is top tier too.
I'm not saying they're bad. Just weird.
I haven't tried them.
crisps probably don't come from the US on the crisps wikipedia page in the history section it says
...
I skipped a bit with another early recorded version that was also from a british book but that's it
I checked the book and it doesn't claim to have invented it it just presents it with all the other recipes but that could just be the style of cookbooks at the time I dunno I'm not a historian but eh proof enough that there's no evidence of them being american atleast and some evidence they're maybe british
Fair enough, the Saratoga Springs story was what I had heard.
You want weird? We also have fish flavored crisps.
I mentioned prawn cocktail, but this is also weird for sure. I don't understand this one at all considering scampi is supposed to have a kind of subtle flavor to it, or at least in my experience, whereas potato chips are generally the opposite.
