Poll question: Favorite Potato Chips
nothing like a good bag of chips, am i right? LOL

NOTE:
OTHER is at the bottom. please share the sea salt, peanut oil, vitamin enriched, aunt sadie's secret backwoods recipe. however, NONE is not present. feel free to rant about the evils of potato chips. somebody might be convinced to quit for whats-left-of-lent.

WARNING:
a midnight bout with UTZ Home Style 'Susquehanna Valley' BBQ Chips inspired this thread. something is seriously wrong with these chips. if i had to describe, it would be medicinal? nauseating? i made it thru one, sniffed to figure what the heck was wrong, and tossed them. approach with caution.

17. Here's where the Western Canadians gather
Of course, the rest of the world has to suffer because they can't get Old Dutch. I just tried the new Cheddar and Roasted Garlic flavor, and they are to die for. Also, I just noticed at the 7-11 that OD has, after so many years, made flavored versions of Rip-L-Chips: Sour Cream & Onion and Bar-B-Q.

5. More chips to avoid...
Herr's Sour Cream and Onion. I opened the bag, and all I could smell is this strong ammonia smell. I couldn't even eat the chips, the smell was so overpowering. I don't want to know what they put in them to make them taste like sour cream and onion... :puke:

11. I HATE BBQ chips
So salty & nasty.

Actually, I like the "baked" chips - not so greasy tasting. Pringles are good too.

20. Olive Oil and Rosemary
Fortunately, they make them in small bags (though I don't think they are intended as single serving, but they are just too yummy).

I love kettle chips and Zapp's makes the best. I miss those spicy little crawtators. You can't get anything like them anywhere else.

24. Bachman's version of Ruffles
Or as I like to call em "Faith Chips" cause Faith was chompin' on a bag of 'em in one of the last episodes of Buffy. *sniff*

They're just as good as my other favorite chips, Ruffles (which I call Liberal Chips cause of a Michael Moore anecdote I read once), but less salty.

Oh, and dude stay away from Utz, those things are FOUL no matter what variety. They taste like fried ass.
