\"PC<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh man! You all know I love chips so I never buy them because they are deadly. When chips show up in one my exciting President’s Choice<\/a> Insider’s Report care packages, they are the first product I try!<\/p>\n

In this summer’s box of goodies I found PC Kettle Cooked Potato Chips – Smoked Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper<\/a>. I must admit I first thought, oh man, that doesn’t sound that interesting. It sounds so basic. Almost, dare I say… plain. I am not a fan of plain.<\/p>\n

\"PC<\/a><\/p>\n

I was thrilled to discover that as I was eating these thick rippled and more-than-a-little oily chips that they were quite flavourful. The black pepper kind of kicks you in the head a bit and there was a complexity to them I was not suspecting. We devoured the chips, licking our oily fingertips, the sound of crunching gone from the air… and no one was more surprised than I was that I found them quite tasty and delicious.<\/p>\n

Foodie Issues<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

I do have a bit of a complaint though. Here is the list of ingredients:<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Potatoes, vegetable oil (canola and\/or corn and\/or sunflower), seasoning (maltodextrin, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, monosodium glutamate, sea salt, natural flavour, yeast extract, silicon dioxide), sea salt.<\/i><\/p>\n

Umm… I do not see “smoked sea salt” on the list. Sea salt is listed twice but… What the heck?<\/p>\n

The presence of garlic powder and the onion powder explains why the chips were more complex than the name. Also, not super thrilled to see MSG listed there as a seasoning.<\/p>\n

Foodie Conclusion<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

As much as I loved the big crunch factor thanks to them being batch-fried in large kettles, that the chips were more flavourful than I was anticipating and are only $2.49 for a bag, I can only give them four wooden spoons<\/b>. There is so much good here but I see no evidence of “smoked” sea salt in the ingredients which makes me wonder about the integrity of the name. Also, MSG is a big no no for me since Reg is very sensitive to it.<\/p>\n

That said, I enjoyed these chips and would eat a whole bag if sent to me again. I just really do not like feeling like the name was misleading and the addition of MSG is a bummer. Close but not quite perfect!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
