Best Potato Chips

[briancl]

Cape Cod is a great regular chip. Hard to beat. I also really enjoy Better Made as a regular chip. Many great memories of dumping 25 cents into a vending machine at 1am at some dive bar in a sketchy downtown Detroit neighborhood and getting a small bag of Better Made potato chips.

Krunchers are tasty, too.

I like the Lays baked potato chips.

Great regular chips. And cheap too.

Oh, these are awesome too:

They taste quite different than most north american chips. They're much thinner, are less salty, but have a much more savoury flavour to them.

I remember really liking Maui Chips, which were similar, but haven't had any in years.

The Kettle Sea Salt and Black Pepper (or something along those lines) are tasty.

Definitely. I always keep a bag in the pantry.

I agree, Ms. Vickies doesn't have enough of the jalepeno pepper flavour as compared to Tims, just more salty. Not as spicy, either.

I've recently become a fan of Blenheim Ginger Ale, Old #3 Hot.
Sharp Gingery sting!!!

Those are absolutely in my top-three chips of all time.

I can't remember the brand, but years ago I used to buy these "gourmet" chips that were made with olive oil, and they were fantastic. Came in maybe three flavors -- one also was sea salt and black pepper, another was rosemary, and perhaps there was a lemon and black pepper one.

Another vote for Tim's here. (I'm particularly partial to the barbecue and jalapeño flavors.) So, so good. I only buy them once every few months because I find it difficult to stop eating them...

I remember when I was 10 years old they used to sell root beer in glass bottles. It was much better than the A&W stuff you get now, and it also had a bit of hotness or sting to it. That stuff was really good and i wish I could still get it somewhere, but I can't even remember what it was called.
