Hobsy: Good point!

Winner? Builder's Breakfast!

I got Pringles in "Spicy Guacamole" in Mexico that weren't bad, and some (forgotten brand) Port and Stilton chips in London last year. They were delicious.

I'll have you know that the Rosemary and Olive Oil triscuits are great! I love them almost as much as the cracked black pepper ones, but I can eat them more often. Though I suppose that's not necessarily a good thing.

My favorite chips remain a tie between Salt & Vinegar chips and Chili Cheese Corn Chips.

@ mayabaxter- I have!! When my roomie and I went to thailand we had a "chip challenge" where we held taste tests of all the flavors we could find. Nori seaweed was one, and neither of us liked it at all. We also tried Double Cheese Pork Burger, Extra BarBeQue, Spicy Seafood, Hot Chilli Squid and a few others I can't remember. The hot chilli squid was my favorite, and the real double cheese pork burger they serve at McDonald's in Thailand was awesome.

A local chocolate company here in SW Ohio, Esther Price, sells another SW Ohio staple, Mike Sell's Potato Chips, dipped in its chocolate. I usually see them available in stores around holidays - they're pretty good!

Dull blond? While I do enjoy the charred crust, I think there is something to be said for the blond crust. It packs just as much flavor as the charred.

Brannigan's Roast Beef & Mustard are indded a King of Crisps Michelle, but hard to find - when I source a supplier i bulk buy.

I admit I am totally addicted to crisps and here in the UK we have the best selections (this is based on minimal research - and the fact I had to smuggle huge bags of Salt and Vinegar crisps across the Swiss boarder when my sister moved there). Also good and unusal are:

Brannigan's Ham and Pickle (translation - chutney)
Burts Firecracker Lobster
Walkers Lamb and Mint

However - nothing beats Cheese and Onion with a pint of Ale in a Sam Smiths pub in london - heaven - Cheese and Onion crisps are a stable here and the undisputed best flavour ever

It might just be me, but the Texas pizza's crust looks significantly thicker than that of the Brooklyn pie (both in the picture and personal experience). With a scorching coal oven, a thick crust would take longer to cook and be overly charred-even by NY standards. NY pies are, in general, a thinner crust (like those in Italy, especially Southern Italy and Napoli) and a crisper experience than that of pies I've had in the rest of the country. Perhaps if the franchises thinned out the crust, more non-New Yorkers would 'get it'!

Also, the Brooklyn pie has more of an 'artisan' look to it than the Texas pie; redder tomato, not spread in a thin layer over the entirety of the pie, with a better contrast to the mozzarella.

I would love to try the onion bhalji chips, I wonder if they taste anything like those Hawaiian sweet onion chips that are so addictive. I would also like to try the chilli and chocolate chips...I wonder if any stores carry them in Canada.

The strangest flavour I have ever had was Lays blueberry flavoured chips (in Beijing)...no joke...it tasted like a crispy version of a salty blueberry muffin...very gross indeed and very artifical tasting, I bought it out of curiousity because that is such a random combination.

Not the UK, but in Argentina i was wolfing down the Serrano Ham flavored chips. mostly tasted like a regular chip but the aftertaste was pure serrano ham...

@Paulie: You got me. It's true.
@Summerfield: Apologies. I am sorry. I went there myself. Sorry about not catching your charred humor. You know humor in print. Sometimes doesn't translate. About half of what I write doesn't. :/

I enjoying looking at the different flavors of chips when I'm traveling. This summer we made a point of sampling them all over Asia! In Asia there seemed to be quite a few corn and shrimp flavor combos.
However, one of my favorite flavors is ketchup. I usually buy a few bags when I'm in Canada.
