The trouble with those lists, though, is you don't know how normal those are elsewhere. Do people in Japan really chow down on blueberry flavored chips after school, or is that a novelty item? I mean, I can go out and purchase some Thai Curry chips, or Cheddar Horseradish if I like, but I have to make a special trip - they're not something I can just snag at any old corner store.
This poll is the chip flavors I think of as "pretty normal" - I'd expect to see them in most or all corner stores, and certainly all supermarkets. (If one of them had to go, it'd be Cheddar and Sour Cream, but that's still found nearly all over the place.) Which ones do you think of as normal? And, the impossible to poll for question, which ones are normal (or do you like to eat) that I couldn't list?
