Salmon Sushi Flavoured Chips

Look what I found - Salmon sushi flavoured potato chips!

The packaging looks so nice but I'm more curious about the taste, that's why I bought a packet to try. It costs S$1.50 (52.5g). Each pack comes with a wasabi powder sachet - you are supposed to pour this powder into the packet of chips (the pack is resealable) & shake it up before eating them.

Verdict: You MUST add the wasabi powder cos without it, the chips tasted ordinary, can't even tell its sushi flavoured! Sigh, sometimes I wonder why did they even bother to R&D anything when all you have to do is to re-package existing stuff in a nice wrapper, slap on a fanciful name & you'll get silly people like me (aka suckers) buying them (even if it's only just once). And I always get conned by nice packagings...
