I went to my PO Box this week and had SO! MANY! TATOCHIPS! I don’t know if anyone else calls them tatochips but I do sometimes, and I was walking around my living room singing a little song about tatochips to myself. I had two boxes of flavor!
So here are my tasting notes:
From R (not my R) in the southwest -- let me know if you have a handle I should use, also love the cactus card: 
Fried Corndog and Mustard HEB brand: Delightful. Delectable. This is a mild, less piquant variant of the hot dog chip than some; I don’t think they used much paprika if any. It’s meaty but not too beefy, and the mustard is hinted at. There’s no cornmeal flavor per se but I’m here for the hot dog anyway.
Mixed Berry Lemonade HEB brand: WHY. SO SOUR. OH THE SOUR. I AM FORSAKEN. There is a hint of berry which is peculiar but not unpleasant; then it’s just SO MUCH CITRIC ACID. I feel like a mixed berry potato chip sans lemonade would have been preferable. Hell is empty because HEB is here. 
From @221squee who also sent me the delightful koi card -- I will have to pay a visit to the exotic chip store at the Destiny USA Megamall:
Black Pepper Rib Tip (Lays?): Steaky! They have a real beef flavor, hint of pepper; it’s easy to do smoke flavoring badly but they were sparing with it. Also they come in a vertical tin but they’re in a horizontal plastic tray inside it, which is an amazing combination of absurdist and practical and made me laugh. 
Black Pepper and Cheese “Italian” Pringles: These are meant to be cacio e pepe, yes? They are peppery and cheesy! A nice balance. I prefer slightly less pepper flavor but they’re by no means inedible. Although the bar for potato chips being edible is significantly lower after Mixed Berry Lemonade chips killed God. 
Garlic Baguette Sun Chips: I have had garlic baguette chips before but not Sun Chips, which adds to the experience. I opened the bag and was immediately enveloped in a cloud of garlic, but the chips -- while definitely garlicky -- have a nice buttery flavor to them that emphasizes the “garlic bread” aspect. The texture of the sun chips implies a crispy crust which adds zing. 
Thank you both for an adventurous potato chip experience! I will consume these many chips....and find some culinary use for the Mixed Berry Lemonade ones. Somehow.

TBF, You'd look ridiculous no matter where you were shelved.

Alas poor Vermont Curry, Japanese style curry sauce mix.
You came from a strange land, far away, only to end up rejected on the candy shelf. Your flavor profile seemed exciting and exotic when picked up from the international aisle, but up checkout was regarded as the concoction of a madman.
The only favor your would-be buyer did you was placing you in the box labeled "This Saves Lives". Perhaps someone will see you there and decide that yes, you can save their life... from boredom of flavor.
RIP - March 2022

As a natural-born, life-long Texan I am about to say something that might get me exiled from the state.
(Though that wouldn't be unusual. The king of France did exile my ancestors. Twice*)
Last year, H-E-B, a very prominent and popular grocery store chain in Texas, began opening some locations in the Dallas area.
Today, I decided to finally visit and see why it's so popular and I must say that I absolutely do not get the hype at all. Every time a new location opens, it is flooded with die-hard "fans" and I don't understand why.
Sure, many of the store-brand products are a little cheaper and are as good, if not better than, the similar major name-brand items. Other than that, it all seems to be just a fairly typical large grocery store.
Not to mention, a few of those H-E-B branded products are actually available in some local Mart-of-Wals locations here in Texas. Also, that supersized, blue and yellow, nationwide chain still has cheaper prices and a much larger selection of products.
I've been shopping at WallyWorld for so long, that I've even become accustomed to using the large self-service registers to check out. It's actually nice being able to purchase products without someone else handling them, potentially judging my choices, or wanting to engage in conversation. This H-E-B location did not have that option. The self-service stands were only available for people with 15 or less items. Not for those like me making a full-service grocery run. I think the last time I used a standard staffed register was before the apocalypse of 2020.
Essentially, the only reasons I can find for shopping at H-E-B are either to buy a few specific items or to try and develop some strange superiority complex over other Texans.
I will now sit here and wait for state troopers to come kick down my door and drag me across state lines; forbidding me from ever returning home.
(*Yes. My ancestors were literally exiled by the king of France twice. I don't know the story, but they were first exiled from France and settled in Canada. There is even a tiny town near Quebec named after them. Then the king exiled them again, forcing them out of Canada. Where they fled and eventually settled in Louisiana with some of the Acadian exiles.)

Check out The Coffee Show's Waitsgiving special on KGLT Bozeman on May 17th, featuring an interview with @fishboy! The Coffee Show airs 3PM Mountain Time every Wednesday. No idea what they're talking about, but I am responsible for introducing Keith to Fishboy's music and he's also wearing the weird grackles smoking in an HEB parking lot shirt from Galloping Boy Designs that I got him, so there's that.
