Title: Sumthin New in da Tater Chip Aisle
Post by: uncleshorty on Jan 27, 2021, 11:42 PM: Went down to the Piggly Wiggly in beautiful downtown Spring, Tx, just across the sewage canal from the creosote plant, to pick up some chips. Walkin' down the aisle I saw shrimp flavored, salt & vinegar, vinegar and black pepper, bbq, jalapeno, sour cream and onion, buffalo wing, chicken and waffle... and... and ... from here till Tuesday...

Then, way down at the end, on the bottom rack I saw a flavor that dern near knocked ma Red Wings off.

POTATO FLAVORED POTATO CHIPS!!!

No Kiddin', there they were, bigger 'n Dallas. So I grabbed one of the three bags and hustled home with my rare find. Sure enough, Frito Lay has managed to make a potato chip that tastes like a... potato chip.

Git yerself a bag, if ya can find 'em. They're a taste sensation...

Now to the tater chips. Please confess. They gotta be Loaded Baked Potato flavored chips, which I have seen before. But just plain old "Potato flavored" chips? Tell me it ain't so. You got three bags? Probably not anymore but you gotta have one left. I'd be good for a pic.

Not that I don't trust you but I'd just be curious to see it myself. It'd save me trolling the chip aisle countless times to find an example. ;)2
