Why is there such a poor selection of potato chips (crisps) available in North America compared to the UK?
Q. The UK must be the potato chip capital of the world! Every combination of flavour and texture is available. And the best that's available in North America? Lays. Boring, artificial tasting with a limited range of flavours. However, if you've never been outside of North America you wouldn't know what you're missing.

A. I had no idea! I guess the companies which exist in Britain or Europe don't operate here, frito-lay and others must have a virtual monopoly over the North American chip trade. The bastards.
