I hadn't heard or seen anything about it until yesterday when I saw an ad for it while filling up at the gas station. 59 cents for a 20 oz. bottle of questionable blue liquid. Berry Cola Fusion. Not very promising but for 59 cents, I was willing to risk it just in case it was the new wünderdrink. I was doubtful because it was Pepsi.

Has anyone over in the eastern part of the country ever tried ketchup-flavored potato chips?

Back in June we were coming home from visiting relatives near the east coast and we stopped at this rest area where they were selling bags of ketchup-flavored potato chips. I'm not exactly sure, but I recall they tasted like ketchup with a hint of barbecue.
