Snack #167 - Michael Season's Kettle Cooked Jalapeño Potato Chips


First of all, the bag was VERY full, something that I feel merits comment given how disappointing the moment immediately after opening a bag of chips and peering into the vast emptiness can be.  That said, onto the chip, which was very crunchy - perhaps even crunchier than your average kettle chip. My problem is that these chips, like so many "jalapeño" flavored chips, tasted like a sour cream and onion chip. Seriously, I know I've said this many times, but since when are those two flavors the same? A spicy sour cream and onion chip is a spicy sour cream and onion chip, not a jalapeño chip, and that's just the way it is. And these chips didn't even pack enough punch to warrant calling them sour cream and onion and jalapeño chips. The heat might have built a little as I kept eating, but not enough to make it worth it.

Rating on the Spice-O-Meter: .5/10

Bottom Line: a very full bag full of very ok chips
