Why aren’t you eating…Lime Potato Chips

Lay’s Lime Potato chips are a fav for my crew. Do they really taste all that different from the standard chips? Oh yeah. But that’s the fun part about eating them–when you take a bite expecting to taste potato you’re treated to a Froot Loops version instead. In fact when my nine-year-old takes a stash to school in her lunch bag she likes to play a game with friends where she has them close their eyes. She hollers “Froot Loops,” as they chomp on their chips. When they open their eyes what they’re seeing and what they’re tasting don’t match. I know, I know, you have to be a 3rd grader to have that be really funny. But she assures me that she entertains crowds with this little experiment at lunchtime.

My husband, who lived in Mexico for two years, and is a sucker for south of the border flavors introduced our crew to lime chips. In Mexico, lime is the flavor–from lime mayo to limeade (limonada) and yes, potato chips. Lime is everywhere. So if you’re ready to have your crew try something new, pick up a bag.
