Japanese chip flavors

I was hoping translation would clear up the picture, but no such luck…
- 電気あんま
  
  pressing one's foot on the genitals of a supine person while pulling on their feet (usu. as a prank); electric massage

  Still WTF, but at least the label matches the picture...
  
  Edit: the lower left probably says something about black pepper and salt (ブラックペッパー＆ソルト) -- I can't tell what the rest of the characters are though through the JPG compression. Probably (\ included) for the parenthesis bit?
  
  Thanks, I should’ve looked up “electric massage” on urban dictionary after the translation.
  
  Why did you replace the 「と」with "&"
  
  It would be better if you left the original text in the quote unaltered
- This sort of helps explains a bit more… leading to a whole bunch of other questions

  Google translate doesn't translate stuff well

It's the collaboration edition with the cartoon character タイツくん (Mr. Tights), and there are many more goods like this on their website.

Specifically on this package. At the top there are タイツくん (Mr. Tights) and 大人のドリトス (Doritos for adults, which I should note doesn't mean it's adult-restricted, they just put that to many food and drink to mean those can be enjoyed by adults).

In the main image, we have 電気アンマ復活, revival by an electronic massager, which is a mischief game played by one person holding the other person's legs, stepping on their genitals, and turning around the feet, mimicking an electronic massager, as is shown by the characters.

In the bottom left, it says ブラックペッパーとソルト味, black pepper and salt flavor. In the bracket, 竹炭入り, added bamboo charcoal, which is also quite common in Japanese snacks, because people think it's healthy.
- Japan is so cool. I wish it was real
- Thanks!
Answered their own question; they're Doritos of the fucking kind. You know, for the act of coitus. Don't be fatuous, Jeffrey.
- I was talking about my rug...
  
  They peed on your rug, dude!
I do appreciate my likeness being used for advertising.
- You're the one getting his balls stepped on, right?
  
  Oh yes daddy 🥴
  
  When it comes to CBT, I'm more of a verse.
Ah, yes, everyone's favorite Dorito flavor, Dick Kicker.
- No, this one is "ball crusher".
  
  During this time of year it's called "nut cracker".
If anyone is actually curious they're just salt&black pepper, with kinda black carbon to make the chips look black
- Goth doritos
- That's not the part that I was curious about
  
  Hey I do what I can
Frito been watching 'Ow my balls!' again?
- He interrupted me while I was baitin'!
  
  To what exactly are you objectifying?
- Oddly enough that looks like Hank Hill kicking Bobby Hill in the nuts which is also made by Mike judge.
Japanese commercials and Japanese porn and Japanese product packaging are quite a juxtaposition with the extreme decorum of Japanese society.
Hey b0ss!
Ngl, it somehow captured the spirit of Doritos quite nicely IMHO.:-)
- This is what it's like to chew Doritos
  
  Why does this entice me so, to say this?:
  
  In mudder Russia, Doritos eat you!
  
  Especially vertically.
I fucken wish we had sick packages like this! Shopping would be so much fun!
- until our Western society has evolved to such levels of fun, here's this in the meantime.
  
  That is just amazing!
Visited Japan recently and was surprised at the lack of fucked up chip flavors. Sure, they were somewhat different, but still clearly chip-appropriate food flavors. My friend there tells me stuff like this tends to be sold at very limited times and also varies by region. So weird flavors are more like rare special editions than the norm.
すごいです
- This is sugoidesu. Which translates to "Amazing."
  
  I can't say I find it amazing. I don't wanna eat step-on-balls flavored Doritos!
  
  From my learning of Japanese it basically translates to
  
  "It's amazing"
  
  「すごい」 is also contextual and can mean amazing and ~~bad or horrible~~ terrible or dreadful depending on context from what I have learned
  
  "It's amazing". If you're just saying "amazing", you would use すごい by itself.
Gas pedal flavour
Looks like standard fucking doritos to me.
electric massager revival?
kinky
that's a solid lion tamer
The good kind.
The best kind apparently
This meme is so old

(How old is it?)

Well, like really old.

(Booo!)
