slo’s TUESDAY 5/6 poll - Takis

[slo]

Takis are a hot and spicy snack item that many people enjoy. What are Takis? Here ya go…..



Both my girls enjoyed eating these with their friends during their teenage years. I still to this day don’t know why, because they never liked anything else that’s hot & spicy, I’m not sure if my oldest still eats them, but i definitely know my DD21 doesn’t eat them now. How about you all? Let’s get all hot and spicy with our answers today……

Have you tried Takis?
If yes…..what is your opinion of them?
What flavor(s) do you enjoy?
(Multiple choice)

*Theres lots & lots of flavors - more than I realized, so they had to be combines in the choices



For Me……I have never tried them - I’m not a hot & spicy food eater . Even when they were in the house 10 years ago, I didn’t try them - no desire . I’m a lightweight when it comes to spicy food - LOL!

 

[WDWEPCOT]

Never heard of them until now but would not have tried them if I had

 

[Jeannie]

I've never heard of these!

 

[bobbiwoz]

Never heard of these. I do not like spicy foods, so I won’t be trying them.

 

[jalapeno_pretzel]

I'd never heard of them until I noticed them in the store just a few weeks ago. Have not tried, not likely to try.

 

[PollyannaMom]

I've not bought them. I might have tried one if DS had some around, but I don't remember, so I voted no.

 

[Kitty 34]

Never heard of them nor would try them.

 

[Dan Murphy]

I never heard of them until granddaughter, Delaney, started earing them a few years ago. She eats the Blue Heat ones. They always have a bag laying around in the kitchen area somewhere. She loves them, ears them like they're plain popcorn. Delaney talked me into trying them some time back. Yikes, they are HOT! I ate like two, no more. Grandson, Griffin, likes them some also, but not as much as Delaney. When Marie makes up little treat bags for the kids when we go to Vince's house, she most often puts in one or two small Taki Blue Heat Takis for Delaney.

I had heard of Taki's and seen them around, but a while back on a trip to LA I noticed that everyone was eating them. One time I was there with a friend and he asked, "What's with all the Takis?" We joke about that a lot. Still, I actually have never had one I don't think.

 

[Meriweather]

I've heard of them and seen them in the stores, but never bought them or tried them.
No real interest in them

 

[lovesmurfs]

Chose no, and Other. Other being I'd probably never buy them -- I don't care for spicy snacks aside from wasabi bar mix.

 

[TiggerTrigger]

The kids periodically go through Takis phases. Some flavors are better than others, but I'm not a fan. I don't think any of them are ridiculously hot, but to me...it's like Hot Cheetos got together with Doritos to form Takis. I don't like Hot Cheetos or any flavor of Doritos, so it's a given that Takis are a no.

 

[snowwite]

They taste like Tajin seasoning.
The kids love them but I prefer Doritos

 

[Micca]

Haven't heard of these Sandy, probably too spicy for me. I can handle a little heat, but over-the-top spicy stuff isn't for me.

 

[Wood Nymph]

I had never heard of Takis. But I instantly began aware of the snack when it was part of a clue in the NYT game - Connections.

 

[CynBeth]

I have never heard of this.

 

[evilmommie]

All of the vegetable oil in them makes my stomach upset. Takis are a no for me.

 

[NYCgrrl]

Hot and spicy is no problem for me but I’ll bypass the rest.

 

[_19disnA]

Never heard of them. Don't care for any type of hot/spicy snack foods that simply burn my mouth. I guess some people like that, but not me.

 

[unrequited23]

They are big with the middle school crowd around here. It reminds me of how atomic fireballs and war head candy were popular when I was in Jr high.
