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.
My local Sprouts Grocery had a variety of chocolates on clearance a few weeks back and this bar was 7 or $8. dollars off so I thought I’d give it a try. It’s by a company called MAEVE and it has a long name on the front that reads Valentine’s Romance Classic – The Peanut-Butter Banana Affair. Then under that it reads Peanut Butter and Banana Dark and White Chocolate Truffle Bar –
Whatever-
I open it up.
I break off a section to try.
There’s a LOT of cream in the center………(bah)
Here we go.
WOW the dark chocolate really is very good. Not too bitter. Not too sweet with lots of GOOD chocolate flavor. It also melts in the mouth just right.
I’m not crazy about the filling.
I can taste peanut butter and bananas but it’s not a satisfying amount of either flavor and the chocolate overs powers those flavors. There are also same crunchy objects inside that are odd.
Maybe a different variety of this bar is very good but I’m not paying the Sprouts regular price for these bars.

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.

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.

I found the weirdest looking potato chip ever. I found it at Big Lots. The brand is called Long Chips. they are called Mashed Potato Snack. The flavor was honey BBQ.
They are super thin and you can almost see through them. to my surprise they taste ok……..Kinda good actually.
I wasn’t able to find any information on them on the web.
Don’t know if I will ever come across them again.
These Long Chips were the FORKING Weirdest Looking Potato Chips ever!
I found two different Holiday Edition M&M’s at my local Target so I had to give them a try. I found Toasty Holiday Peanut with artificial flavor and Holiday Mint. The Toasty Holiday Peanut does have peanuts inside that seem larger than regular peanut M&M’s. The peanuts inside have little flavor and seem softer…..But the WEIRD thing is as soon as I put one in my mouth they also almost taste like GROSS ARTIFICIAL COFFEE……..and they leave a weird almost GROSS COFFEE aftertaste……I won’t be getting fat eating Toasty Holiday Peanut M&M’s.
The mint ones aren’t bad. They taste just like an Oreo Type Cookie that is laced with some mint.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Holiday M&M’s Toasty Holiday Peanut & Holiday Mint.
