Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar

I have always enjoyed Sun Chips. Nice and crunch with a great flavor. The real thing that sticks out to me every time I get a bag is that because the number one ingredient in them is CORN...they have a sweet aftertaste not to far different than Bugles. That being said, this bag is Harvest Cheddar in my mind they could have used more cheddar flavor. I had to think to pick it out. The corn and whole grain wheat flavors bullied it into a corner. Not that they taste bad, I just wish in my mind there was more flavor on the chips. Overall I would rate these a 3 out of 5.

Winn Dixie Sriracha Potato Chips



Winn Dixie Brand Sriracha chips

I have always found Winn Dixie chips to be a great value... 1.00 a bag is pretty good when the same size from the big guys runs 2.49 or so. The flavors are usually pretty good. Not always as strong as some of the more expensive brand but always decent. Being a pepper head (one who likes hot food) I use Sriracha like most folks use ketchup. Sweet and full chili flavor it is a wonderful addition to a hamburger or hot dog. I saw these and went OK gotta get a bag. Since that time I have probably gotten 15+ bags. The medium sized bag is what you get for a dollar. My son and I just kill it in one sitting..which is good and they don't go stale. The Sriracha flavor is really there. Sweet and not an overpowering amount of heat...but enough if you eat more than one hand full it starts to build. You can taste the garlic and paprika in there too. Have had Sriracha chips by other makers and honestly I like these better. I would like to see them in a kettle style chip..which is my favorite style. On a scale of 1 to 4 I would give them a solid 4.
More reviews later. Send a request or two and I will see what i can do.

Lay's Kettle Cooked Indian Tikka Masala chips


Lay's Kettle Cooked Indian Tikka Masala

Now those who know me know I am a bit of a foodie. I love Indian food. Tikka Masala is an Indian styled chicken dish that originated in England...even though the seasoning roots are well rooted in Indian cooking. I like it a lot. So when I saw these chips I was like "can they get it right?" They got pretty close.

I like Kettle Chips...nothing better to me than going to a restaurant that fries their own. Lay's does a good job with them..cruncy and not too greasy with a good potato chip flavor. As far as the Tikka Masala seasoning. Not much of the chicken flavor in there, but the Masala is present. I like it a little spicy and they have some spice..more would be better. You can taste the coriander, cumin and other spices. I sat down and ate about half the bag at the first sitting. I would recommend these if you like Indian or middle eastern food. On a scale of 1 to 5 I would give them a 4. I think they are well balanced and hope they keep making them in the future.

More on these new flavors later.

Ok...I have an addiction. I admit it. I love potato chips and love finding all kinds of new flavors. Yes I annually submit dozens of new flavors to Lays flavor contest. Still hoping to win that million bucks. But seriously, I am your average foodie and love chips of all kinds. I plan to review what ever I come across...pics included. You can follow along and make all the comments on the flavors you wish. I hope to try one new flavor a week....starting tomorrow. Follow my blog and lets see where this journey takes us...
