Krolik Flips

As a lover of snacks, particularly ones I've never tried before, I always grab a few items from convenience or grocery stores when I travel.  This interest lead me to Krolik Flips, a line of snack foods in Poland.

"Indulge in a snacking experience like never before with Flips Corn Puffs. Bursting with flavor, light on the waistline, and made with love, these delightful puffs will surely become your new favorite snack companion. So, why wait? Grab a bag today and savor the sheer joy of crunching into Flips Corn Puffs! Your taste buds will thank you!" 

The form factor of Flips is large airy corn puffs, made with corn grits.  I was curious if they would indeed be very similar to other corn puff products on the market from countries like Japan or Korea, or just entirely different, which seemed quite possible, given the different cultures.

Flips seem to come in a few flavors, including caramel or chocolate.  I tried the strawberry version.

Truskawki (Strawberry).

I was pretty happy to see the contents of the bag.  They were a similar looking concept to other corn puff snacks I enjoy, although considerably, more girth.  This definitely isn't just a Polish style, as the peanut corn puffs I had from Lorenz were probably 1/3 the size of these.  They make the Japanese Tohato corn snacks look like they are made for ants in comparison!

These were a nice level of lightly crunch and airy at the same time.  Definitely a satisfying form to eat a snack in.  The flavor was sweet but not cloying, and lightly berry flavored.  I tasted a milky component, and maybe even white chocolate.  

These were very good, and really reminded me of of the special strawberry caramel corn that was part of a Sanrio and Tohato special edition (review of those coming soon!), just, mega sized.  I devoured the entire bag except those final 4 so I could snap a photo in one sitting, so, yeah, they were very addicting!  ****.
