I was watching a commercial on TV this evening about a snack that had real onion in it and all of a sudden FunYums came to mind. I can still remember the unique taste and that made me wonder if I could possibly still find them for sale somewhere. Guess not. But they were great; and I miss them (although I haven't thought about FunYums for decades).
Spelled Funyuns, this was a Frito-Lay chip. Introduced in 1969, these didn't sell well. Was said that these gave consumers strong onion breath (garlic-flavored chips had same effect). In defense, no one complained about the aroma making teary eyes. These disappeared in 1972, and reappearing several times, including the early 1990s.
