Was there any doubt that Wasabi-Ginger, kettle cooked would be the winner in the Lay's Potato Chips One Million Dollar Do Us A Flavor Contest?

I taste tested these a few months ago and there's was no double this was the best flavor and now America agrees with me.  America is saying no to cappuccino flavored potato chips, but yes to “Wasabi Ginger.” ”Wasabi Ginger” has won this year’s Frito-Lay contest that gives people a chance to create a new flavor. The winner, Meneko Spigner McBeth, was to be informed at a dinner for finalists Monday night in New York City, with an announcement from the company expected Tuesday. McBeth, a registered nurse from Deptford Township, will get $1 million or a portion of a year in sales, whichever figure is larger.

Bags of the four finalist flavors hit store shelves in late July, and people have been going on Facebook and Twitter to vote for their favorites. Some taste-testers described cappuccino flavored chips as “NASTY” and “gross.” The other two finalists were “Mango Salsa” and “Cheddar Bacon Mac & Cheese,” which was developed by an Ohio firefighter.

Here's my flavors for the next contest: Key Lime Pie, Lime and Cilantro and Wedge Blue Cheese.
