why do we have the shittest snacks on earth?
where do i buy cheap american snacks in bulk?

>go to america
>buy chips
>the flavor particles are actually visible on the chip
>lots of flavor and spice
>flamin hot cheetos actually burn my tongue like real chilli does
>only eat a few chips because they are so satisfying

>return to australia
>buy every type of chips at woolies and coles (australian supermarkets)
>try them all
>ALL of them (even the so called 'spicy') ones have ZERO visible flavor on the chip
>can barely taste anything, let alone judge what flavor the chip is supposed to be
>every brand and flavor of chip just tastes mildly salty with no discernible flavor
>eat 2000 chips expecting to get one with some actual flavor
>still not satisfied

the shit quality of our snacks is actually forcing me to consume much more than i normally would.

Australia is basically what happens when you take anglo cuisine and remove fresh food from the equation.

>>12065188
As if. Unless you're counting street food I've found Mexican street food to be generally lousy.

>> No.12066188

>>12065830
What snacks are you imagining to be fresh food? Carrot sticks and celery? OP was talking about chips bought from a supermarket. Fresh food doesn't figure into it anywhere in the world.

Australians can't into pasties. You'll never find a good pastie anywhere within its borders.

This further reinforces the idea that Australia is just Britain but scalding hot and with insects that want to kill you.

>> No.12066275

>>12066270
There are no insects that will kill you. Not even with malaria. Maybe you might count ticks, but I wouldn't. There are two types of spider that might kill you. There are a few snakes which can kill you, a couple of which will go looking for a fight instead of trying to stay away and only attacking when they feel threatened. There are no mammals which will kill you unless you are a baby.

It's good liquorice, but not good enough. Darrel Lea was going bankrupt and had to be bought out by a pet food company to stay in business.
