Potato chips

Last year on the way back from our many St Louis trips we made, we came across some ketchep flavored chips,along with baby back rib flavoered, I think it was in Mountain Grove, Mo Walmart, needless to say we looked in our local Walmart and they didn`t have any. A couple of weeks ago went to neighborhood Walmart and low and behold their was Ketchup and baby back ribs flavored chips and they sold out fast, it was a promotional item, so no more.
