Walkers Chili and Chocolate

<p>Chiles and chocolate have been paired together for centuries, but they work better when turned into a beverage, or mole. On a potato chip? Simply bizarre.</p>

Chiles and chocolate have been paired together for centuries, but they work better when turned into a beverage, or mole. On a potato chip? We're not so sure.

Walkers Crispy Duck and Hoisin

<p>Another entrant in a Walkers contest, this one paired sweet hoisin sauce with something that probably didn't taste much like duck. Weird.  </p>

Jiminy Chips Chocolate Marshmallow

<p>At least the chile and chocolate chips made an attempt at savoriness. Have you ever heard of a potato turned into a delicious sweet treat? Neither have we. </p>

Caviar Lay's

<p>One of the most highbrow foods on Earth, combined with one of the most lowbrow foods on Earth. There's absolutely no way this flavor combination could work. You'd think they'd at least use Beluga caviar instead of cheap salmon roe on the packaging!</p>

Lay's Hot and Sour Fish Soup

<p>If you're really in the mood for a bowl of hot and sour soup with fish in it, why not just go get a bowl of it? Is there really anyone out there who wants their potato chips to taste like "intense and stimulating" hot and sour soup with fish in it? If there is, we salute you, because you're a fan of the wildest, weirdest potato chip flavor on Earth. </p>
