Fritos Flavor Twists Spicy Dill Pickle

 

Product circa: Summer 2026

I guess "spicy dill pickle" is plenty zeitgeisty enough to be an "American" flavor as part of this US semiquincentennial promotion.

They really provided "the works" of flavor profiles here for this snack.  I've tried plenty of spicy pickle snacks recently, and this is different.  This seems to have a ranch flavor base, with dill flavor added, with salt & vinegar powder added, and also the "red hot" flavor on top.  They're not unpleasant, but they are very busy in an All Dressed kind of way.  More than anything, this snack highlights that the flavor twists form factor provides an impressive crunchy texture when using new-fangled flavors, and I wish Fritos experimented with them more.

Pringles Cheeseburger

Product circa: 2016 and intermittently after

One of the shining examples on how junk food is made to taste like complex cuisine, and cheeseburgers are often the subject of these successes.  Individually, your tongue with detect distinct flavors of charred beef, cheese, onion, mustard, and pickle.  Add to this a very salty delivery, and it's one of the best potato chips (if you can call it that) that I've ever tasted.

Seven Select Big Bite Hot Dog Potato Chips

 



Product circa: 2024

Seven Eleven's brand of chips do kick out some odd limited time varieties sometimes.

This one is very straightforward.  A salt & vinegar base and, just like the bag depicts, added flavorings of smoke, ketchup, mustard, onion, and dill pickle.  These are a ton of fun - I'll pick them up every time I see them.
