I Thought Kettle Kimchi Potato Chips sound like an amazing flavor to try so I picked them up at my local Sprouts Grocery Store. I always look at the ingredients to decide if I want to give it a try.
By looking at the ingredients I can tell that it is a 50/50 chance of me liking them. Not always but MOST of the time I can’t tolerate citric acid and also have some trouble with dry vinegar….so?
I try them anyway.
First I open the bag and see lots of smaller chips.
I take a whiff.
Smells kinda funky with lots of mixed seasonings that can’t be identified.
I eat a small chip. It’s not sweet like a bbq can be but also is spicier with a burn in it to me.
Then I try to eat a chip more slowly…..
I get a different taste now…..MORE SOUR and MORE BITTER and sort of painful.
Back to just eating a chip normal.
Now I get a garlic taste that I didn’t get before but it is a sour garlic taste.
Multi-demential in taste but you need to be less sensitive than me to enjoy it.
Those were my FORKING thoughts on Spicy Kimchi Kettle Chips. Your Forking thoughts on these Kettle Chips may differ.

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.
Chili CrispCabbage and Chilli Crisp Dumplings Indian Inspired Chili Crisp FORKING Delicious Corn Salad made with Italian Chili CrispItalian Chili Crisp
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.
