I'm not big on potatio chips usually. TO me they always seemed like a lot of rubbing for a little bit of warmth. But these? These I like. Kettle Brand they call themselves, and this is their Sea Salt & Vinegar model. Long, long time ago I introduced you to their Salt and Black Pepper chips, which were the first ones I tried. And both of them are good enough to make a fan out of a guy who doesn't really love potato chips. Yeah, I stopped and picked these up so I could photograph 'em, but I had to. They don't last long enough for me to have a bag around to shoot. Besides... the Canes are playin' tonight. And who watches hockey without a nosh?

Best Chips Ever

Best potato chips ever! Click to embiggen.
Chapel Hill, NC - July 2008
Found these in the "organic junk food" section of the Kroger near my friend Kristen's new apartment. We were on our way to a BYOF gathering, and something about these sounded really tasty. Tasty enough for me to plunk down whatever (probably) absurd price Kroger wanted to fetch for them. I was not disappointed. They're slightly heavier on the oil than I might usually like, but this is a chip of substance. No nantsy little girly see-through sheer chips in this bag. Uh uh. These are chiply chips! There is no dip in the world stiff or heavy enough to break them. Not that they need dip, but if you were so inclined you needn't be concerned of leaving half of your chip in the bowl to founder and sink. But these are not chips for the meek. Only the bold chipster can appreciate that satisfying crunch that comes with victory of bicuspid over kettle-hardened potato. And it takes a secure palate to value such simplicity. A masterstroke in the world of snack foods in my estimation.
