Three jalapeņo flavored products I ran across:

Doritos jalapeno cheese golden toast flavor crackers
   OK, but tasted artificially flavored even though
the ingredient list showed "jalapeņo peppers".  It
made me wonder why they couldn't put the "~" on the
front of the wrapper.

Lays's kettle cooked jalapeņo extra crunchy potato chips
   Very good, crisp chips, decent chile flavor, some heat,
not quite as salty as Poore Brothers brand.  Jalapeņo
spelled correctly throughout.

Pain Is Good jalapeno microwave popcorn batch #37
   Good flavor, very few old maids without scorching,
salty but LOTS of flavor dust/grease/salt lining the bag.
Best heat from scraping the inside of the bag.  Not a "~"
in sight.

I'd definitely buy the last 2 again and pass on the Doritos.
I'm guessing the off/chemical taste was from the cheese since
I like the taste of their 3-D jalapeņo & cheddar snacks.
