when last i posted about this, i was on the lookout for the sriracha and garlic cheese flavors, as i had already had the chick/waffles. i kept looking and looking, but days went by and my ralphs continued not to have them.

one day, they had a promotion where they gave away all three FOR FREE, bet. 4-8 pm. of course, i found out about it after work, and by the time got there at 7, needless to say they were all gone. i'm guessing they probably ran out around 4:15. lol

FINALLY, last weekend they had a very, very small display of the sriracha and garlic cheese - no chick/waffles, but i didn't care since i had already had them.

my rating: sriracha, chick/waffles, garlic cheese.

i would put the sriracha way ahead of the other two. i liked the chick/waffles, thought they captured enough of the flavor as i wasn't sure they could.

the garlic cheese was okay, but kinda had a weird after taste. they were fine, but kinda off. if i had to buy any of them, again, the sriracha.

lastly, like last time, after i had my serving, i brought the bags into the office to put in the kitchen. i put them there at 9:15 am. i went back at 9:45. sriracha, gone. went back at 10:30. garlic cheese, gone. TRIFLIN! lol

Not sure if they are a test; there may be bigger bags of them too on the market. I need to start checking around, and post on here again if I find them in a regular size bag.

all i've seen here in l.a. are the big bags. i was looking for a small bag, but had to get the big 'un. fortunately my ralph's supermarket was running a special. i think i'm going to pick up the cheesy garlic and sriracha ones tonight. i'll report back, esp. to tell you how long it takes for my TRIFLIN' co-workers to be all over them! lol

I got some triflin' co-workers who I swear to bob don't even taste what they shovel into their mouths. They just inhale anything anyone puts out. disbelief

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

why am i not surprised? when i first saw them in my ralphs, they only had a few but i never thought it was going to take them FOREVER to restock. either these things are flying off the shelves, or lays whole marketing and distribution scheme is effed up.

Allegedly, they are only marketing these to the black community:

As long as they taste better than them nasty ass Salt and Vinegar chips then I'm down....

Seriously though at first glance, the ideal of a chicken and waffles flavored chip sounds at worst racist and at best a what were they thinking moment.

After thinking about it though, i don't really have a problem with it. Lays has a variety of flavors and a chicken and waffles is just one more. I would suggest that they remove the drumstick and waffle on the bag AND they most definitely shouldn't solely market them in urban neighborhoods...

Only marketing them in black neighborhoods would be racist.

Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon.
