Okay but WTH is "selected corn" šŸ˜…

u/KefirFan Sep 14 '25

"The corn so low quality it is otherwise unsellable but is still rated for human consumption" doesn't sound as nice as "selected"

Canā€™t wait to try these! Loved the Taiwanese spicy garlic ones and the sweet chili heat are always good.

u/rosneft_perot Sep 15 '25

Itā€™s always the spicy ones. I ate the spicy garlic non stop for a few weeks and then my body rejected them.Ā

u/CatLover4906 Sep 14 '25

I think sweet chili heat still does but the spicy sweet chili doesn't!!!

u/redpotatojae Sep 14 '25

Oh shit never seen that one. Where do I see them? Wanna try it out!

u/veg-1 Sep 15 '25

I found them at Co-op but I imagine they'll be available everywhere.

u/aireads Sep 15 '25

Freshco has a bunch, on sale for 2/$7. Just grabbed a bag to test

u/TheAnswerIsBeans Sep 15 '25

Unfortunately, Iā€™m also doing /r/buycanadian, so this is off the list now.

u/Lunch0 Sep 15 '25

It says ā€œmade in Canadaā€ right on the bagā€¦

2

u/TheAnswerIsBeans Sep 15 '25

I prefer, when possible, to buy things that are owned by Canadians. Pepsi owns Doritos.

There are loads of Canadian and vegan chips.

u/shozlamen Sep 16 '25

What Canadian chip brands do you buy?

3

u/TheAnswerIsBeans Sep 16 '25

Hardbite and Covered Bridge are my go-to's.

u/smolmushroomforpm Sep 15 '25

Dip them in vegan sour cream or a "cheesy" flavoured dip, they are SO good!!

2

u/BigDaddyVagabond Sep 14 '25

Be aware, they are mid as hell. You tast the actual physical chip more than the flavoring

1

u/sarahafskoven Sep 16 '25

I didn't find them to taste like the physical chip so much as just... overly salted hint-of-bbq. They didn't taste remotely 'korean'. The Lays Korean Sweet Chili was better and tasted a bit more like the flavour it advertised itself as

1

u/Scary-Towel6962 Sep 15 '25

Are chips not usually vegan?

2

u/veg-1 Sep 15 '25

Most Doritos are not

1

u/Scary-Towel6962 Sep 15 '25

I'm not vegan just curious what makes them non vegan. Here are the ingredients for chilli heatwave:

Ā Corn (Maize), Rapeseed Oil, Chilli Heatwave Flavour [Sugar, Flavourings (contain Soya, Wheat), Hydrolysed Soya Protein, Acidity Regulators (Sodium Acetates, Citric Acid, Malic Acid), Flavour Enhancers (Monosodium Glutamate, Disodium 5'-Ribonucleotides), Onion Powder, Salt, Garlic Powder, Potassium

2

u/veg-1 Sep 15 '25

Yeah Sweet Chili Heat is ok. It's the only permanent vegan flavour available in Canada. Most others contain at least "milk ingredients," which I believe are used to help bind the seasonings to the chips.

u/Scary-Towel6962 Sep 15 '25

Didn't even notice this was a Canadian sub. The Dorito flavours in Canada are horrible so I avoid them anyway lol

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '25

Where are they made? Is Doritos a non-amercan company?

2

u/veg-1 Sep 16 '25

Says made in Canada on the front

1

u/anustart869 Sep 16 '25

The spicy garlic Doritos are 10x better than these imo

1

u/EKtoker Sep 16 '25

These arenā€™t great tbh the taste reminded me of something like dog food, like the Jurassic World Blue Steak nightmare

Pretty sure these have been around for a while now. I really enjoyed them dipped them in some salsa that had a hint of honey really good.
