Not every flavor needs to be a potato chip
Comments (35)Good grief! DC, I'm amazed! Writersblock, you're right about the young men and their otherwise designated compadres. I know some. They don't actually chew their food, or taste much, so they look for flavors that assault their tongues as they blow past. LPink, I think it depends on the potato chip as to the whole gateway thing. The original Laura Scudders (not the current people who bought the name), the first packaged potato chips which were a local legend here, were real potato chips, not industrial stew, and the barbecue flavor was just some of the same things you'd put in your dry rub sprinkled lightly on the chip instead of plain salt. Those were yummy!! Nothing like the candy coated orange chips of today. Also, much spicier. Even given the weird attraction for gamers and stoners, I don't get seaweed and salt potato chips. Why not just eat seaweed chips at that point? Seaweed chips are great! I'm okay with real flavors, like barbecue spices. Or wasabi. Or even seaweed if it's sprinkled with dried seaweed rather dipped in artificial seaweed perfume. If they need to sugar coat the chips to make the flavors stick, however, what's the point? The weird flavors are surely created with industrial chemicals. Like "truffle" oil. Even things made with essential oils, like a lot of mint flavored sweets, taste chemical to me. Much different if they're made with actual mint leaves. I'm fine with vanilla extract, and even a little almond extract if it's not too heavy handed, though at that point I'm more likely to use Amaretto liqueur if I'm making it, but if the flavor is more industrialized than a little soak of alcohol, it just tastes tinny to me....See Morewhat is your favorite and was your favorite candy
Comments (9)I guess Godiva Chocolates are my favorite candy for the occasional chocolate fix. Sees Candy has gone way downhill too except for a few classic items. Their stores are full of candy bar type stuff and they got rid of Sugar Sticks!!!. Now, they still make them because they are still put in the boxes for holidays. But you can't buy them alone anymore. You have to buy a box of stuff you don't want to get 2 or 3 of them. I like Russell Stover candy at the drugstore. All my old favorites have been reformulated or changed. UNO bars are no longer much different from a Three Muskateer. Annabel took the middle layer of chocolate out the Rocky Road bar. Hershey's has recently change their chocolate Kiss formula also. Probably think we won't notice by introducing all the silly different varieties but people did. Even Lifesavers messed up their flavors. It will be just like what happened to hamburgers *sigh*. A whole generation of kids grew up on McD's so they think In and Out or Sonic are something special. LOL I still like Swedish Fish. But only the original red ones. The multi-colored ones are just wrong....See MoreDo You Have A Favorite Brand or Flavor of Ice Cream?
Comments (33)I have never heard of Blue Bell until now, but its not available in California, darn :-( Sure sounds good ! My hubby loves Ice Cream, but I never buy it for myself, I do enjoy a cone from McDonalds once in awhile though and if we had a speciality Ice Cream Place I would probably like it, like 31 flavors. A few months ago they started putting in a Cold Stone shop, got it half built and we got excited about it, and then they just stopped , left and put in a small subway :-(...See MoreFavorite chips to accompany your favorite sandwich!
Comments (23)In Adamstown PA there is company called Goods. They make 2 kinds of chips: The blue box - kettle cooked in lard. The red box - thinly cut and more in line with most mass produced chips today. Most people around here specify the blue box...YUM! As in...."should I get chips for the party?" "yes. Goods" (and then almost as an afterthought, but just to be sure..) "....in the blue box!" But sadly I almost never have chips at home anymore. Too tempting,,,,and did I mention they are fried in lard? Lard has about 5 times the saturated fat compared to canola. But, if f I was eating a sandwich with them, it would be fried sweet bologna with mustard and chips in the sandwich....See MoreJudy Good
