Reaction to the new chip flavor however has been mixed in China and a host of reviews about the oddly combined chip flavor are popping up on Chinese based websites like Weibo.
These types of flavors may sound unique to Americans, but in China and other parts of Asia, fusions like this are fairly common.

Food manufactures have done some pretty odd things in the past to get buyers attention recently American fast food giant Pizza Hut decided to launched a limited edition perfume that smelt like pizza dough with spice in it.
Burger King in a similar ploy came out with a fragrance entitled the "Burger King Flame" and pushed the scent as a "sexy," product.
Burger King's scent was suppose to smell like flame grilled meat and to market the aroma the company ran an advert that opens with a romantic scene that hasD the BK mascot with a cougar pelt accompanied by a young lady.
