New York Ruben Potato Chips


For the last several years, Frito-Lays has been making a variety of "speciality" chips of one sort or another.  These have ended up becoming a sort of ritual for everyone in our family now. 

My wife and I and our kids have generally had quite a bit of fun over the years trying out these weird concoctions.  Back when the company first started, they were calling the chip a "mystery chip" and asked people to try to figure out what the flavor was.  They unfortunately no longer make "mystery" chips, but now have a variety of surprising, special flavors. 

Yesterday my wife and I and two of our kids tried out the new style called "New York Ruben".  It was actually pretty damn good!  I especially enjoyed the caraway flavor in the chips that gave a real "rye bread" sort of flavor.  The essesnce of both saurkraut and swiss cheese was also apparent. 

Overall, a VERY surprising, and actually very good chip!

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
