Food of Champions.

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.
