A short post today, since I had to mention this limited edition flavour of Funyuns onion ring snacks:
Why oh why did they have to be hot & spicy chicken ramen?!? What’s wrong with plain chicken, the flavour beloved by all??!? For this reason these were purchased, placed carefully in our larder, and then forgotten for months.
This is no exaggeration! I only ever saw these for sale once – at a petrol station of all places – and I purchased them immediately. Many times since I had considered opening them but I was always terrified of the ‘hot & spicy’. Yesterday, six weeks after they had expired, they were finally tasted.
My verdict: inedible. Quite literally I could barely even finish the sole ring I tasted, so excruciating was the mouth-scalding heat. Others (such as KLS, who didn’t mind them) may say they’re not even hot at all, but as with all True Australians I have no heat tolerance and these were torture.
