I was always blown away by the wild chip flavors when I traveled to England as a kid. Monster Munch is a flavor unlike anything you can find stateside

Monster Munch is a brand. They do a tangy pickled onion, roast beef, flaming hot, and a handful of others. Pickled Onion are incredible.

Yeah but if someone says monster munch and doesn't specify the flavour you know they mean pickled onion.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's apparently not a universal opinion, but I reckon pickled onion are the all time best monster munch flavour. Beef and hot are both great too, but picked onion is best IDST

Potentially more controversially, I rate them in a crisp sandwich situation too

I... feel like my entire life has been a hollow waste. 😆

We Americans really have a near total dearth of flavors in our processed foods. It's been getting better over recent decades, but it's still just industrial flavorings. The flavoring is just something Americans invented to cover up a lack of nutrients in our food. These processed foods have the added bonus of spurring us to eat more because the food is so nutritionally empty, yet tastes like it should be nutritive. Ref: "The Dorito Effect" by Mark Schatzker.

Speaking of wild chips flavors, have you guys tried ketchup chips? It's mostly sold in Canada and it sounds like it would taste awful, but it's actually pretty good.

never liked monster munch as I don't like pickled onion but beef space raiders are great and they're the same sort of crisp if you've ever tried those
