10 Wild Snack Flavors You Can Actually Order Online
There are snacks you grab without thinking, and then there are the ones that make you pause mid-chew and go, “Wait...what is this?” Pop Snax was built around chasing that feeling. The curiosity. The surprise. The little thrill of tasting something totally unexpected from across the world.
Over time, some flavors stuck with us, whether it's that they were delicious, bizarre, nostalgic, or just plain chaotic. Here are 10 of those snacks. Some are cult classics, some are seasonal one-offs, and a few might disappear again soon. But for now? You can still grab 'em!
1. Dunkin' Pollack Roe Mayo Popcorn
📍Snack Birthplace: Korea 🇰🇷
We know...this one sounds like a dare... But in Korea, pollack roe and mayo is a classic combo, known for being creamy, salty, and deeply savory. Now imagine that layered onto popcorn. The result? Surprisingly balanced. Rich, buttery, a little briny, and a flavor that’s weirdly hard to stop eating once you’re in.
One Reddit user said it reminded them of sweet and salty kettle corn with a twist, and we think, that’s spot on. It smells a little bold (don’t say we didn’t warn you), but the flavor is surprisingly mellow, balanced, and addictive once you’re in it. Definitely one of the more out-there snacks in our shop, but also one of the most talked-about. Dare to give 'em a try?

🍘 You’re curious about Korean snack culture

2. Haunted Green Apple Fanta
📍Snack Birthplace: USA 🇺🇸
This one’s bold, weird, and totally committed to the bit. The can is a vibe--Beetlejuice branding, neon green, Halloween-core to the max. The flavor? Let’s just say it’s not shy. People have described it as everything from haunted caramel apple to cinnamon-scented soda. (Yes, really.)
Originally released as a limited-edition Beetlejuice collab, this flavor seems like it should be tart, sharp, and fruity, but it takes a wild left turn. Instead of the green apple punch you’re expecting, it comes through creamy, spiced, and deeply sweet. Somewhere between caramel apple and a Halloween candle... depending on your taste buds.
It’s definitely not for everyone, but for the collectors, the soda chasers, and the Halloween die-hards, it’s worth trying at least once. If nothing else, it’s an experience.
You’ll love this if...
🍏 You live for Halloween season and love Halloween-themed snacks
🍏 Cinnamon gum, caramel apples, and cream soda were your childhood staples
🍏 You’re okay with your soda being more sweet than refreshing
🍏 You’ve ever picked a drink just because the can looked cool

3. Sour Patch Kids Oreos
📍 Snack Birth Place: USA 🇺🇸
When this limited-edition Oreo dropped in 2024, it caught everyone off guard. It still doesn’t totally make sense, but somehow, Oreo pulled it off. Golden cookies filled with that classic creme center, and a huge plot twist: tart, slightly citrusy Sour Patch flavor dispersed throughout. Yup. That really did happen. And yes--it's as strange as it sounds.
But, for the right kind of snacker, this one hits. A small but loyal cult following swears by this combo, comparing it to lemon shortbread cookies. We’re not totally sure where it ranks in the Oreo flavor hall of fame, but for the superfans, we’ve kept a stash on hand just for you.
You’ll love this if...
🌈Lemon desserts are your thing
🌈Sour Patch Kids were a childhood favorite
🌈You’re the friend who always tries the limited-edition stuff, no matter how strange it sounds
🌈You’re not afraid of a little flavor chaos

4. UTZ Lemonade Potato Chips
📍Snack Birthplace: USA 🇺🇸
Yep. Lemonade chips. Sounds weird, we know, and that’s exactly why they’re on this list! But here’s the twist, they’re actually kind of brilliant. Instead of being sour or overly sweet, the flavor is light and vaguely citrusy, just enough to cut through the oil and salt without going full candy. Think kettle chips with a summer glow-up.
These are part of a limited-edition charity release, with proceeds going to support childhood cancer research, so your curiosity helps support a good cause in this case. Definitely not your everyday chip, but that's the point.
You’ll love this if...
🍋 You’re into sweet + salty combos like BBQ, kettle corn, or honey butter chips
🍋 You want a snack that tastes like summer in a bag
🍋 You’re into light, tangy flavors that don’t overpower
🍋 You’re curious about citrus in savory snacks, and not afraid to try something new

5. Roasted Mediterranean Chicken Doritos
📍 Snack Birth Place: Taiwan 🇹🇼
This one caught us off guard. It’s deeply savory (think chicken-flavored ramen or bouillon powder) with a light sweetness that hits on the back end and feels weirdly fancy for a chip. If Doritos ever went global with fine dining vibes, this would be a step in that direction.
A little backstory here--We first spotted these in a YouTube haul video. It was just a quick mention, no review, but something about the words “Mediterranean Dorito” stuck in our heads.After months of digging, we finally sourced a small batch from a Taiwanese supplier.
Taiwan combines smoky, salty, & sweet, and manages to fit all of those flavors on that classic tortilla chip. Definitely one of those bags you struggle to put down.
You’ll love this if...
🍗 Spicy Sweet Chili is your go-to Doritos flavor
🍗 You love savory chips
🍗 Are a super fan of ramen & salty flavors
🍗 Slow-cooked flavor lovers

6. Matcha Ice Cream Oreos
📍 Snack Birthplace: Taiwan 🇹🇼
Matcha has had its moment, and it’s still going strong. But not all matcha snacks are created equal. Some lean bitter and intense, others go overly sweet. This one lands right in the middle: smooth, mellow, and almost dessert-like, without losing that distinct green tea edge.
We found these buried in a Taiwanese snack haul late one night, tucked between louder, more dramatic options (looking at you, Roasted chicken Doritos!). These felt different. More refined. The flavor isn't trying to shock you, it’s just quietly balanced and satisfying, like a dessert made by someone who really gets matcha.
You’ll love this if...
🍵 You’re into matcha lattes, soft serve, or green tea snacks
🍵 You like desserts that are sweet, but not too sweet
🍵 You want something low-key to snack on that still feels a little special
🍵 You like the color green (we’re not judging)

7. Salted Egg Yolk Lay’s Chips
📍Snack Birthplace: Thailand 🇹🇭
This one’s a regional cult favorite that’s still under the radar for a lot of U.S. snackers. Salted egg yolk is a beloved flavor across Southeast Asia--rich, creamy, and super savory, with a funky edge that’s hard to explain but easy to crave once you’re in.
These Lay’s capture that same flavor and wrap it around a crispy potato chip. The result is buttery, slightly sweet, umami-heavy, and just a little weird in the best way. If you’re used to basic chip flavors, this one will make you feel like you're stepping into a completely different snack language. And if you’ve never had salted egg yolk before, this is one of the most accessible (and snackable) ways to try it.
You’ll love this if...
🍳 You’re into rich, yolky flavors like carbonara or custard buns
🍳 You want something salty, savory, and truly different from your average chip
🍳 You’ve been curious about salted egg everything on Foodtok (foodie TikTok)
🍳 You want something that tastes rich and indulgent without being cheesy

8. Black Truffle Velvet Mashed Potato Pringles
📍 Snack Birth Place: Taiwan 🇹🇼
Yes, this is real. Truffled mashed potatoes, on a chip. And somehow, it’s not even trying to be funny. The flavor goes all in on savory: earthy black truffle, buttery mashed potato, and that soft, almost creamy texture unique to Pringles. The “velvet” in the name isn’t just for show either by the way--there’s a real richness to the seasoning that makes it feel like a side dish from a white-tablecloth restaurant... but in a snack can.
These pringles are luxurious, strange, and deeply snackable...Perfect for anyone who loves when junk food pretends to be upscale. Even better if you're craving an elevated flavor moment but aren't willing to drop $28 on truffle mashed potatoes at that neighborhood spot you only go to on special occasions. This lets you live a little… from your couch.
You’ll love this if...
🥔 You’re into truffle fries, garlic mash, or basically anything umami-heavy
🥔 You get excited when fancy ingredients show up in unexpected places
🥔 You like your snacks to blur the line between comfort food and chaos
👉 Try Black Truffle Velvet Mashed Potato Pringles

9. Apple Pie KitKats
📍 Snack Birth Place: Japan 🇯🇵
Warm apple flavor, buttery wafer layers, and a thick coating of fragrant white chocolate--this one’s cozy from the first bite. The scent alone gives fresh-out-the-oven dessert energy, and the flavor follows through. These are sweet, somewhat nostalgic and definitely indulgent.
Apple Pie KitKats are a limited release from Japan's Halloween season, and while most Americans have never laid eyes on them, some might remember a U.S. version that quietly dropped back in 2020. Though we haven't seen the U.S. apple pie make a comeback since, the Japanese release lives on in snack circles offering a similarly cozy & fun flavor profile.
You’ll love this if...
🥧 You’re into cozy fall flavors but want something other than pumpkin spice
🥧 Fall is your favorite food season
🥧 You prefer white chocolate over milk chocolate

10. Buc-ee's Original Beaver Nuggets
📍 Snack Birth Place: USA 🇺🇸
These aren’t wild in flavor--but their cult following? Off the charts. Beaver Nuggets are a sweet, crunchy, caramel-coated corn puff from Buc-ee’s, the Texas-based mega gas station that’s more like a snack palace on the side of a highway. You can’t get them just anywhere. They’re only sold in Buc-ee’s stores, which are mostly clustered in Texas and a few neighboring states.
The flavor is simple but dangerously addictive: sweet, buttery, brown sugar vibes with a crackly crunch that sits somewhere between caramel corn and cereal. For Texans, they’re a roadside staple. For everyone else, they’re the snack you try once and immediately start looking for online.
You’ll love this if...
🦫 You’re into caramel popcorn, puffed cereal, or anything sweet + crunch
🦫 You’ve ever fallen in love with a regional snack you couldn’t find back home
🦫 You’re the type to eat half the bag before realizing you were “just going to try one”
🦫 You either grew up in Texas--or you've seen the TX<->Buc-ee's hype, and want in
