EARLIER IN THE week we got very excited about the arrival of Tayto’s Cheese and Onion crisp bar.

There were mixed responses in the office but we definitely had a think about other unusual food combinations and decided to do some digging.

If you thought Tayto chocolate bars were extreme we reckon this lot takes it to the next level.

2. Lavender flavoured Soda

3. Maple Bacon Doughnut

This is highly popular in the US but we are feeling a bit ill just looking at it:

6. Chicken and waffles crisps

7. Pizza with duck on it

No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

No.

11.  Potato Kit-kat

We really feel that when it comes to Kit-Kat you don't really mess with a classic even if it references a food we Irish people have a fondness for:
