One of the best ways to experience the flavors of a region is by the flavor of its chips - Abraham Lincoln, probably


I will be documenting and sharing the best chip flavors of each place I go to here, so that you don't have to.

Description

Countries found these chips in

Nori Seaweed

9/10

Despite being advertised with a picture of sushi, this chip is solely nori flavored. Great flavor and not too greasy!

Thailand

Salted Egg

4/10

I should disclose that I don't actually like kai kem, salted duck eggs, very much. Unsurprisingly, I don't love their chips - they have a distinctly yolky taste.

Thailand

Krab

8/10

It was odd to find crab chips across Central Asia, which is a heavily landlocked region. The flavor here is slightly sweet, but I can see it as true to subject. Really, best used as a chaser for vodka shots.

Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan

Bous: Tzatziki


12/10

These aren't from Asia, but I get to make the rules here. Garlicy, salty, and hugely addictive - this is exactly what regional chip flavors should be.
