Beware those martins and trans fat if they have it. Some variety of those I bought once had 3g trans fat per serving.

Trans fat: 3g servings: 14

Thats like kill you dead bad.

Trans fat is what gives them the great taste :^D Seriously. That's what I like about them. They should probably switch to lard, but then you'd need preservatives I think. I don't eat chips that often; maybe once a month. You gotta die of something.

I hate the bandwagon jumpers on kettle cooked chips.

Where the fuck were you people in the 90s, when NY Deli Kettle Cooked chips were around - AND pretty much the only kettle cooked brand.

Now, everyone has kettle cooked.

Can't stand kettle cooked chips, probably because I pounded the hell out of Crunch Tators back in the early 1990s:



These are my absolute favorite chips currently, and have been for many years now:

Kettle-style is where it's at. There's no reason to keep making the other kind.


Sweet onion is the best, IMO. I used to buy these under the Husman's brand. But now only Synder makes them AFAIK. Same as Husman's but different name for a different market.

These are also exceptional, but keep a drink handy.

i hate kettle chips, no matter the brand. i dont like chips that seem as though they were covered with several layers of shellac.

i like regular old ruffles the very best, but i don't buy or eat chips very often.

I love pretty much all chips; potato, tortilla, corn, paint. Kettle cooked chips are probably my favourite though. New York Cheddar & Herb Kettle brand are amazing and the jalapeno Miss Vickies are up there too.

When my local vending machine stop dispensing Miss Vickies several years ago, I called the number on the back and ask where I can go to buy them? I was told that they've been bought out by Lay's and the exact same Miss Vickies chips are now labeled as Lay's Kettle cooked. You should add the Target's Archer Farm brand with the ziplock seal. Those are good too.

Not old enough and not enough purchasing power yet

They are not the same up here; not yet anyway. The Lay's kettle cooked come in Jalapeno Cheddar and are smaller and feel a bit thicker. The Miss Vickie's are just Jalapeno (no cheddar) and has a very different taste and texture. I've bought both recently. The Lay's ones are good, but they are different.

I'll have to check and see if they have those Target ones up here. Always up to try new chips brands/flavours. Thanks.

either plain or S&V. all other types of fakeass flavored chips are pointless.

but man, they are delicious. I like Kettle cooked, but they aren't my favorite. Classic Lays style are still my favorite. I am quite partial to that texture.

Most Kettle cooked shred the roof of my mouth. I don't got time for that.

For salt and vinegar chips they need to be malt vinegar (cider vinegar will do as well). The plain white vinegar s&v chips are pretty blah.

I'm really not a fan of the retail salt and vinegar, though my wife buys them for her.

Malt much better, yeah.

I still like just basic Classic Lays chips myself, and the old standard Doritios or Sour Cream ones.

We usually get Santita's for general Nacho type of things in general.

I used to eat some of the Kettle chips, but for the price they seemed a bit out there.

I still love Garlic Bagel Chips, if they are on sale 2 for 1, we always grab em.

Sometimes even not 2 for 1, the wife and I love those.

The Lay's kettle cooked Jalapeno Cheddar is a new flavor they recently made I think and there should be plenty of regular Lay's Kettle Cooked Jalapeno flavor. The only Jalapeno flavor chip that I've had that imo is superior to the Lays/Miss Vickies is the "Kettle" brand itself. It has much more heat and is a bit crispier and thicker.

we used to have a chip company called Krunchers that made awesome kettle cooked Jalapeno chips. As well as regular and BBQ.

They disappeared about the same time Miss Vickie's showed up.

:hmm:

these are a recent and current addiction. and since people actually review stuff like this, here's a review! http://www.grubgrade.com/reviews/snack-review-utz-kettle-classic-dark-russet-kettle-chips/


Those look delicious. No Utz around here unfortunately. Wonder if they have them in Toronto. :hmm:

I picked up a bag of Miss Vickies Jalapeno last night and they have absolutely nothing related to Lay's or Frito Lay on the bag. They are different chips up here, at least for now they are. They had the various other Lay's Kettle Cooked there, but they are nowhere near as good as the Miss Vickies.
