fried red pepper strips
You cut sweet red peppers into strips and dry them out. They keep that way and you can store them in a dry spot for months. Then fry them up and salt them (as you would potato chips).
This is definitely Italian in origin, but I don't know other people that do this.
They offer sweet, salty, and bitter (the frying adds an acrid taste) all at once in a crispy, deep red form.

This sounds pretty righteous.
I used to go into ethnic markets searching out snack stuff I never tried. Your post reminded me I should start doing that again.
