Snack "Chips"?

[Fireup2020]

I was sitting here at my desk, hard at w*rk peacefully cruising through the ER forum, when I heard the pleasant crunch of a potato chip - now, not the rude crunching or smacking from a rude co-worker, but the appetizing soft crunch - and lo and behold, my mouth watered! I walked around to her cube and we giggled and had a fun discussion about chips in general, and while when in the mood for such bad for me things, I won't necessarily kick most to the curb, but I do have my preferences - and yes, she shared hers with me (preventing me from having to purchase my own bag!)

So, here's a fun poll to see which ones we rate the best!

I prefer Kettle chips. Sorry I had to be difficult but there was no "other" option

 

[bow-tie]

I'm a total sucker for just about any potato chips. We don't keep them in the house, if at all possible.... it's too difficult for my self control.

 

[Sheryl]

Cheetos are my one guilty pleasure. All those other chips have no appeal at all, but I cannot walk away from a bag of cheetos. I used to reward myself on long boring drives with a bag from the AM PM>

 

[Rich_by_the_Bay]

Don't see them on the list, but those "Terra chips" are made of veggies and taste really good, same old crunch as a nacho.

Doritos. I don't dare even walk down that aisle in the store - they jump into the cart on their own. If they make it home the giant bag lasts two days at most. My weight is the same as it was when I was 25 and it's become increasingly difficult to keep it that way.

Makes me laugh. Every time I walk past the junk isle my mouth starts to water.

Baked Lays. Not as greasy as regular chips, less fat, etc.

I make up for it in quantity though.

Best ever:

I only buy them once or twice a year, as I will not stop until they are consumed.

 

[Trek]

I'd vote for pork rinds but that's not on the list either.

 

[cute fuzzy bunny]

Funny, I was just told by a 2.9 year old that "I need barbecue chips in my tummy!"

Ruffles deserve their own category. Dipping without them may be hazardous to your laundry situation.

from the quick-e-mart - classic lays or sour cream/cheddar

from the gourmet or alterna markets new york cheddar from kettle chips! yum!

 

[cute fuzzy bunny]

I got some "sweet thai chili" Lays kettle chips last week. Dang tasty.

 

[calmloki]

Kettle Chip's Tuscan Three Cheese: a "Mediterreanean Vacation in a bag". Or Kettle Chip's Salt and Pepper. Or Fritos (mmmmm Frito Pie - midwest hight "walking pie").

 

[citrine]

I love the Kettle chips in Jalapeno, Red Hot, and the Buffalo Blue Cheese.

 

[lazygood4nothinbum]

for some odd reason i only eat potato chips with tuna sandwiches.

 

[TromboneAl]

I put Sun Chips because of the compromise between taste and fat/calories. If health were no object, I think I'd go with Fritos or those Maui potato chips.

 

[Fireup2020]

I love Kettle chips too, and in my mind for poll purposes, I had them in the "regular" potato chips category Thai chili??!! Mmmm - that sounds tasty!

Trek: They have Pork Rinds in Estonia? We used to eat them when I lived in VA - not even sure if they can be found in NJ!

 

[cute fuzzy bunny]

The sweet thai chili ones are hard to put down.

On the other end of the spectrum we have these

I used to spend a couple of dollars a day on Nacho Cheese flavored Doritos from the snack machine at the office. Now it's mostly these from the Garden of Eatin'...

I had to swear off all chips years ago. You people with metabolisms!

Let's just not mention chocolate, ok?

I wish there was just ONE day a year when we could eat chips and chocolate all day, and not gain an ouncE!!

Lol, I look at how much a bar of chocolate is. Then I figure out how long I need to exercise to burn that off. Boy it sure isnt fair!

Not fair at all!! When I was a kid and had that kind of metabolism, I was skinny and couldn't afford things like chocolate. Now that I am older and have the money, there goes the metabolism....
