Lay’s in Thailand

Okay, I’ve already talked about how much I love Lay’s Nori Seaweed chips here in Thailand.  What I don’t think I mentioned is that Lay’s in Thailand does a whole host of other interesting, unique-to-Thailand flavours:

Salmon

Some kind of Thai Sauce (Too bad this label isn’t in English)

Some Kind of Thai flavour (I wish this label were in English)

Spicy Basil

Some Kind of Meatball (I wish the label were also in English)

Lobster Hot Plate

Extra Barbecue

A Lay’s Thailand nod to American food: American Cheese and Paprika

Hot Squid

Which of these Lay’s flavours would you like to see sold in your country?

Apple or Passionfruit Popsicles

Wall’s Ice Creams makes a selection of popsicles.  The popsicles cost only 15 Baht, and since there aren’t really any popsicles in Burma, I kind of go a little nuts enjoying extremely cheap, extremely delicious popsicles when I come to Thailand.  My favourite flavour ever is the apple flavour, but if apple isn’t available, they have a passionfruit flavour which also isn’t bad.  If neither of those is available, there is a grape flavour which will do in a pinch.

Last time I went hunting for popsicles, I noticed there was a new flavour in the freezer: pomegranate!  I went ahead and tried it because I just couldn’t help myself (I’m a food explorer!).  I think apple is still my favourite flavour, though!

Cheap Donuts in Thailand

This is one thing which I absolutely love about Thailand: extremely cheap donuts from street vendors!  Each little donut is only 5 Baht, so you can get a tray full of badforyouness for only 30 Baht (1 USD)!

Lay’s Nori Seaweed Crisps

This is one of my favourite flavours of chips (or crisps, if you prefer).  I’ve been mildly obsessed with these chips ever since I moved to South Asia two years ago.  I think it’s Lay’s Thailand that makes the Nori Seaweed flavour, but it’s also available in Burma (but that probably has more to do with the fact hat Myanmar imports a lot of their products from Thailand).  Anywho, I love these chips!  They are light-tasting, well- but not overly-seasoned, and just a tiny bit salty (but I think the saltiness comes from the flavour of the seaweed, not actual salt).  the only issue with these crisps is that I can really only eat them at home, as my teeth are extremely close together and if I eat these in public, I run the risk of walking around with big dark green flecks of seaweed stuck between my teeth– not a pretty sight!
