Choices are definitely limited, but my new favorite is T'ong sausage flavor. They're pretty damn good. |

Pringles are pretty crappy.
Lays' steak flavor aren't too bad. |

The Pringles in Korea certainly are nasty.
My fave are those steak flavored poka chips. Not sure if they're Korean, but they're good. |

I guess they're Poka, not Lay's. I mentioned it above. Same kind of label as Lay's, but a Korean company. Yes, they're pretty good.
What's the deal with nachos now. Like all over the world. I remember when they used to be the cat's arse. I was in elementary school when the original ones came out. Couldn't eat enough of them. Now they're...I dunno. Been that way for a while. They're pretty bad here.
The onion ring ones aren't too bad. |

Koreans eat the weirdest, bland things. You know those rings or similar snacks they have in hoff houses? They have about a billion variety of shapes and colors. I think it was the driver at my hagwon that bought a huge bag of such things today and had them out at work for the students, etc.
What's the deal with those?
He had them in the van on the way home tonight and one of the student's had one, "Mat opso". That confirmed that they too really don't like them. |
