BAH! Ive cut my pop intake by 75% since last month so Im good for the next coupla years.

If you're trying to cut back on bad fat, just stay away from anything fried. If you need starchy munchies, buy baked chips or pretzels.

Indeed! I love fruit...however, sometimes I simply crave chips and not the baked kind either!

We mainly keep popcorn and pretzels here. I have cut off the wow from my last explosion.

Far, FAR too much information.

That reminds me of why one of the pet names for my GF is "Gigglefart."

LOL, yeah. And her reaction to it simply reinforces the reasons why she has that as a pet name.

Dried Pineapples, Mangos and Strawberries rock. Add some roasted almonds and you have a treat that tastes better than any fat laden Chips.

I would think you and your friend don't have too much of a difference in intelligence anyway.

Oh yeah, one bag of those and my ass is on fire for the next couple of hours. Every man who doubts this, go grab a bag and try it out for yourself.

Better yet, host a party in your college dorm, and dont tell people what kind of chips you have. Steal all the toilet paper from the bathrooms. Bring camcorder.

The WOW chips taste good, and a good substitute for high cholesterol snacks. I haven't had any diarrhea problems with them. But they are still more expensive than regular chips.

I get worse crapping problems after eating pizza than I do eating WOW chips. I like them.

Your "They rock" sounds like my "MUST DIE!!!"


How is "crapping like a mule all day and it may smell like motor oil" great???

But the baked stuff is really good and is not greasy and holds dips or salsa better

I just picked a bag up at the dining hall. I'll be eating the entire bag at approx 9pm tonight after a little appetite stimulation (if you know what I mean ), so I expect to be crapping my pants at approx 10-11pm. We'll see for sure later tonight.

When they first came out, I was really hyped for them, bought a few bags and ate them really fast. I was peeing out of my butt for about a week after that.
