I have eaten a lot if spicy food in my life, and because of that i have to give these chips a good review. Are they the hottest things I've ever eaten? no. Are they hot at all? yes. Like other reviewers here I wouldn't suggest that these chips be fed to normies because they are pretty hot. A lot of mass-market foods with ghost pepper as an ingredient aren't hot at all, and that may lead to someone underestimating these chips. like I said, they are not for normies.
As far as the chips go... they are very thin. Thin tortilla chips are not my preference, but eh whatever. The trademark superhot bitterness is there in multitudes; these chips do not taste nice. They don't taste bad at all, but they have a flavor profile you need to get used to. My main grievance with these is the salt. OMG are they salty, even for tortilla chips. Like... I get it, you put salt on them to enhance flavor, etc. but holy cow the saliferousness of these chips is highly unpleasant. seriously, I needed to drink like a liter of water after eating one bag, and it wasn't due to the heat. an hour later and I am still dry.
When you have superhots it is easy to over compensate with other things like spices or salt. I don't blame them for that, but they are really salty. And I love salted snacks. My critique would be incomplete without a message to the company: Please tone down the salt on these a bit. let the flavor of the chips and the ghost pepper do the work. You could also add a bit of sugar to counteract the bitterness of the pepper, but not so much as to make it taste sweet..., sort of like one does with a marinara sauce.
anyway, tl;dr: the chips are good and they are very hot. but they are also super salty, which knocks them down a notch.
8/10, will finish the box. would purchase again.
