Poore Brothers Jalapeno Kettle Cooked Potato Chips

Poore Brothers Jalapeno Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
Rating: B+

Purchased in La Jolla on a surfing trip by my now poor brother (thanks to the very expensive surfing vacation to SoCal) these Kettle Cooked chips were a tasty delight that the whole family could enjoy (they're vegan!).  

Not the spiciest of Jalapeno Kettle chips I've stumbled across, but therefore much more munch worthy as you don't really need to slow yourself down for sips of a spice nulling beverage.  Perhaps that was a bad thing.  These guys were a little on the greasy side but had an overall satisfying crunch.  

I really want to try some of the other flavors the Poore Brothers make, despite being generally standard fare of chip flavor, y'know, Salt and Vin, BBQ, Sea Salt...  Great stuff!

Lance White Cheddar Cheese Popcorn

Lance White Cheddar Cheese Popcorn


Rating: A


This downtown find is nostalgia from my Gym Dandy Gymnastic Days back in
Southwestern Pennsylvania. The gym's vending machines heavily stocked Lance products
and these cheddar delights often greeted me for only 60 cents, post-bars, beam and floor
routines.


Each popped kernel is generously dusted with a coating of that delectable cheesy powder that begs for a serious finger-lickin' after only a few handfuls.


I recommend some napkins on hand when getting down with this snack.
