Chips/Crisps 1.1

…and on the seventh day God created the potato.

Here is the whole family of Lay’s (乐事: “Happy Things” in Chinese) potato chips in China.


The cucumber ones are on my weekly grocery list, oh my they are über good, while the blueberry flavor tasted like powdered pancake mix, with salt.
As for lychee flavor… after testing out blueberry and mango, I couldn’t stomach the thought of a lychee flavored potato chip, considering I despise lychee anything.
The Chinese relationship with sweets is a strange thing… I bought sliced bread the other day (the entire bag was decorated with American flags, so it had to be decent… right?), and it was sweeter than a croissant dipped in chocolate and covered in powdered sugar.

Pancreatic nightmare & potato chip dream

by on Sep.30, 2009, under Cuisine, Photography, Smörgåsbord

Well, after a bunch of drugs, about 2 hours sleep, and many many hours wasted, this guy is back to about 83% health, which is way better than the 38% I was at yesterday…!  I’m definitely feeling better, and damn, am I happy that is over.  So what should I post today…? Well, considering I’m back in the world of the eating, how about fried snack-food?
Potato chips/crisps to be more exact.


I’m a huge fan of the potato chip, and make sure to try them wherever I go… the weirder, the better.  From ketchup-flavored potato chips in Holland to Peruvian cassava chips, I find they are very region-specific in regards to flavorings, which reminds me of Gozilah’s Burger Patrol, and probably just about as healthy ;-) .
