Discussion»Questions»Food and Drink» Hey, am I the only one who could possibly keep eating these without ever stopping? On and on? . . . and on . . . and on . . .?
It's the salt. Anything salty I migrate toward. I'm not a big fan of the consistency in my mouth but the salt wins me over every time. I say with deep felt guilt, "Yes. I can eat a whole can within a one-movie sitting."
I'm really not sure if there is any semblance of potato in them. They are kind of like Velveeta Cheese. They both are completely non-food, foods. However, that has never stopped me from grabbing a can or a block. :) :)
I just looked on my can here -- yes, of course I'm eating them at this moment! - - the first ingredient on the can is "DRIED POTATOES." Yes ,they're all upper-case letters. They must be shouting to us that, yes, contrary to popular belief, there are potatoes in these things. :)
They are made from instant potato flakes...which are potatoes. And legally they are called potato CRISPS...they are not allowed to call them chips because of a lawsuit. Lol.
I remember when they first came out, and how much I loved grabbing a stack and chowing. Or, taking two and positioning them in my mouth like a duck's bill. I don't eat that kind of food anymore, but even if I did it would always been regular Lay's for me.
Yeah, those original Lay's are good. I probably would choose the Pringles over them, though. I don't know -- the Pringles just seem to go down so easily. :)
