Once upon a time, we had these cone-shaped corn chips called Kornets. You know, those chips you'd put on the tip of your fingers and then it one by one? Yes, if you're a millennial or Gen Z, you'd know what we're talking about!
These chips were manufactured by the Granny Goose brand, which is also behind other famous chips such as Tortillos, but unfortunately, Kornets got discontinued. However, it is a part of our childhood that can never be brought back unless, of course, it makes its much-awaited comeback.
While nothing can replicate the Kornets experience to a tee, other chips out there look and taste similar. These are your next best options for the Kornets-deprived kid-at-heart adults.

Here are other chips that taste like Granny Goose's Kornets:
House Tongari Corn Chips
These Japanese-branded corn chips are expensive, and the size isn't that big, but they have the same pointed look and taste similar to Kornets, a steep price we're willing to pay to satisfy such cravings. The House Tongari flavors you should watch out for are the Baked Corn and the Plain Salt, but they have other exciting flavors like Peanut Butter and Salt Vanilla if you're feeling adventurous.
You can buy House Tongari Corn Chips from Shopee or Lazada for around P114 to P118 per pack, or you can check the international section of your supermarket or Korean groceries.
Orion Turtle Chips
Korea also has a tasty dupe for Kornets, and it's called the Orion Turtle Chips! These don't have the same pointy cone look like Kornets, as the chip's shape does resemble a turtle's shell, but the Corn Soup flavor will make you remember the sweet taste of Kornets.
Compared to the House Tongari Corn Chips, the Orion Turtle Chips are more affordable as it's only P69 per pack. In addition, the Orion Turtle Chips line has interesting flavors like Injeolmi, Choco Churros, and Sweet Vanilla.
You can buy Orion Turtle Chips from Shopee or Lazada or go to your neighborhood Korean supermarket.
