I had to try this bag of Kettle Chili Crisp Potato Chips so I picked it up at my local grocery store.
I am familiar with all kinds of Chili Crisp. I made a few myself – Basically Chili Crisp was originally a Spicy Chinese Condiment that added flavors, heat, and textures to food. (the below chili crisps, and food recipes can be found here in the search.

Anyways back to the chips.
I open the bag and take a whiff….It doesn’t really smell like anything I know……maybe a wet potato smell that is mixed with oil and seasonings?
The chips are also all small and very thin and covered with some powder.
The ingredients look OK so I let one dissolve in my mouth.
It’s spicy but doesn’t taste like chili crisp to me.
It tastes very different when you just eat them……….More like spicy BBQ chips. With a little sweetness to them.
Not bad or awful but also not exciting. Just OK.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Kettle Chili Crisp Potato Chips your Forking thoughts may indeed differ.
The Reese’s PB&J cups come in strawberry jam and grape jam. I picked the strawberry jam because the grape one says right on the front artificially flavored so I thought the strawberry would be better? It’s marked U and D so it doesn’t contain any Castoreum so it’s safe to eat.
It looks different than the picture.
LOL – I thought the top would be embellished with peanut butter and jam.
I cut in half and I see the strawberry jam is near the bottom of the cup.
I try some.
It tastes mostly like a Reese’s Cup.
The strawberry jam doesn’t bring much to it.
It’s not terrible but the jam is a waste because it doesn’t have much flavor to it. It’s just there to give you less Reese’s.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Reese’s PB&J Strawberry Jam Big Cups. Your FORKING opinion may indeed differ.

Fun NEW Limited Edition Lay’s Potato Chip Flavors recently came out and two of them I had to try.
One is – Korean Style Fried Chicken (Wavy)
The Other is – Thai Style Red Curry
One taste FORKING AMAZING and the other is over seasoned powdery and weird.
Sadly the loser is Korean Style Fried Chicken.
It taste like mostly too much paprika, dry garlic, dry onion, and a sort of burnt chicken taste, maybe with other flavors. It doesn’t really taste like food. It tastes like seasoning mix that you’d add to something but with a burnt chicken kind of taste.
The “WINNER” by a long shot is clearly the Thai Style Red Curry. GOSH AND YUM! this one is delicious! Even the actual chips taste better and taste like potato chips that were dipped into actual Thai Red Curry.
I’m just showing off just a few of the recipes that you can find here on www.TheForkingTruth.com

According to EVERYONE on the internet Kitchen Aid Stand Mixers are by far the best that any home cook can buy. I had mine around 15 or so years and noticed that it seems to make noises and gets so hot I think it might catch on fire. I read that the average age for a Ktchen Aid Mixer to last is about 15 years so maybe I’m due to replace it.
Recently I noticed that Kitchen Aid Mixers were on sale at Costco so I picked out a new one. When I picked it up I noticed that it isn’t as heavy as my old one……..?
I made a batch of dough and I wanted it to mix for ten minutes.
Then after 4 minutes it stopped.
I tried a few more times to start it up.
I returned it back to Costco. I still have my old Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer. Maybe it will work a few more times?
Just Showing off some food I made. The recipes or variations of the recipes can be found here just use the search.

Pate a Choux, Chocolate, Chocolate Mascarpone, Lightly Macerated Strawberry
These look much prettier that what my photo shows. The Pastry (Pate a Choux was piped and looks like the Deviled Egg Swirls. I thought a light dip of chocolate would be good (and it was) The Chocolate Mascarpone was being given away at my supermarket yesterday. It seemed a little dry to me but I didn’t want to change it and added strawberries that I lightly macerated. People went NUTS over them.
