[Added a compilation of quotes at the end (8/13); Added a picture of a Canadian grocery below]
While in the grocery store today I once again witnessed the common sight of empty shelves where potato chips were supposed to be at. Well, except the salt and vinegar flavours chips that were relatively untouched, silently lying and waiting for their supporters to come by.
Anyways, I have eaten salt and vinegar chips before. In my personal opinion, they taste horrible due to the combination of sourness and saltiness, despite my love for typical sour food. However they are still being produced so I figured that there are people that like it. So out of my curiosity, what do you think of salt and vinegar potato chips?
Poll: Do you like Salt 'n Vinegar potato chips?
(Vote): Yes
(Vote): No
(Vote): I don't eat junk food
EDIT: I read through all of the replies so far and some of them are just absolutely hilarious (and those that are not hilarious, are very informative on potato chips). So please allow me to quote some of them.

Salt and Vinegar is best IMO, regular flavor = noobish
Unless it's the original flavors with an actual decent FLAVOR unlike the Lays original.

They are sooo darn good. The best are when they are sour and not too salty cause that can get gross if you pig out on a whole bag, but the sour mouth puckering flavor is to die for. They go so well with beer.

I took a picture on the Lay's shelf from Food Basic (a typical low-end grocery store chain) near my home today. It's not very clear but I will explain the flavours available for this brand of chips here in Toronto (I rarely eat other kinds because Lay's is cheap, and I am a cheap person).
