Ok... so one of my observations in South Africa, is that they aren't afraid of "interesting" flavours...In the grocery stores- you'll find an array of uncommon tastes. Sweet chilli is one of the most common ( and yummy I might add) flavours you'll find. But there are some that may set you off a bit...
Fruit Chutney, Smoked Beef, Chicken and Rib- These are all potato chip flavours. I haven't had the courage to try the chicken and ribs one yet. But the fruit chutney is rather nice. lol
Another S.A. fav is the "monkey gland" sauce. Apparently this is not made up of actual monkey glands, however- I think they'll have to trick me into trying this special sauce on a burger. Eesh. But my favourite S.A. flavour is the Greek pringles. Oh so yummy. And at only $2.50 Cdn a package- they are the comfort food of champions.
I think all countries should take a risk in their chip varieties. Step outside of the chip box world. It can be exciting.

Images of SA!
(These are just some shots I've taken of the beautiful randomness of South Africa. This country is an artists dream!)
I found this on the beach and it looked so amazing I had to take a photo. This photo is so South Africa. Something that is broken down, surrounded by lushness and beauty.
One of the many gorgeous flowers in this country!
Photo of a house in one of the townships.
A dead tree about to be swallowed up by the evening tide. The colours were just too beautiful in the landscape that I had to take this shot!
