Lol but I’m with the OP! Why no just get funyuns then?
Because the Funyuns-flavored chips are potato AND onion, rather than just onion. They are similar to the UK/Ireland Cheese and Onion crisps, which are SO good. (We seriously need a good cheese and onion potato chip in this country that isn't a temporary gimmick.)
I like Funyuns, but they are annoyingly prone to sticking in one's teeth, which the potato chips didn't, so that's another plus.
FWIW, I suspect that what Lays is up to here is a search for new chip flavors that may really take off. They've done this to test flavors from other countries, too; the brand is known as Walker's in the UK, and they also have some interesting flavors.
BTW, a tip about mouth burn from hot pepper things (not for LSUMiss, I know she knows this already, LOL.) The heat comes from the pepper's oil, so you need something that will absorb oil to properly get rid of it. Milk or water isn't nearly as effective for that as eating soft bread or plain cooked rice, which you want to chew very thoroughly to get it to find and absorb all the pepper oils in your mouth. (BTW, if you get pepper oil on your hands and need to remove it, washing with soap/water alone is not usually very effective. Again, binding the oil is most important, so thoroughly rubbing your hands with a generous dollop of hand lotion before washing with soap will be much more effective at removing it.)
PS: I think that Fruity Pebbles syrup is more popular on desserts than it is on breakfast items.
