Saturday Salt: Lay's Southwestern Queso


Gollyzilla's final snack for the week is one of the new Lay's chip flavors (there are three). It smells like cheese and onion when you first open the bag, but not much.

There's plenty of cheese flavoring, and some tomato and plenty of spices. In fact, this is a little past the limit of heat I personally like on a snack chip. (Gollyzilla thought it wasn't nearly spicy enough -- he said it almost extinguished his inner flame. Poor guy.) The spice doesn't overwhelm anything else at first, but it sticks around long after the other flavors are gone, as heat tends to do. I can't imagine eating the whole bag in one sitting, as I did with some of the last limited-time Lay's. (Did I mention how much I loved the Brazilian Picanha, and even the Tzatziki, from the last batch?)

There's nothing wrong with these chips, but they're not quite my style. Like I mentioned, I have two more new flavors to try in coming weeks, so I'm sure I'll find another one I like better.

The price on Amazon is high-markup, secondary-market stuff, so your buy link today is from Target. You're welcome.
