The potato chip blog!
Potato chips come in a lot of styles and flavors. Some are more sensible than others. a salt and vinegar chip tastes like salt and vinegar. salt and pepper chips are seasoned with salt and pepper, in case such a thing appeals to your personal taste.
Barbecue chips are popular and good. They also are in no way barbecued. They just have this tasty red stuff on them. No one that's eating a big plate of food at a barbecue ever thinks "This tastes just like the chips!"
and nowadays I see certain varieties that are WAY too ambitious. "Loaded Chili and Cheese Ruffles!" all with pictures of chili and cheese on the bag. Then you try one and it's so underwhelming. and in regards to pizza flavored chips: No. No one has ever produced a potato chip that tastes anything like a pizza. and why would you even WANT that? Who puts potatoes on pizza?
Ever been at a party where there are chips and dip and some fool dips a BBQ one? That's like, "DUDE!" The dip has an orange patch in it now, everyone is shouting.
Isn't dip the whole reason they MAKE the plain potato chips? Otherwise who buys them? They are the same price as the cheddar and sour cream. Any food that is "plain" is not a food. It is an ingredient. "Regular" potato chips were meant to be dipped, added to sandwiches, or fed to dogs. Dogs cannot have BBQ.
How do they get Pringles to turn out in such a uniform shape? It helps them fit in the can obviously, but even when chips are in a bag why can't they be the same way? Instead they are every size, shape, and texture. No two chips are ever exactly alike. Besides Pringles. Are there people that PREFER their chips that way? "It's more exciting! You can hunt for the ones that look like celebrities. Look, this one is kind of like Hitler. The little burn mark is his mustache."
Hitler probably insisted on his chips being uniform. He would not enjoy finding a Hitler chip.
