Dave came in town to surprise Mom and Dad, which was great, but I was afraid I was going to miss him (since I was visiting Rache -- which was great!). Fortunately for me, he was able to stick around for another night AND he didn't just have a surprise for Mom and Dad. He had one for us, too. Potato Chips. Hundreds of potato chips.
I'm not sure how it is that we convince ourselves to eat the grossest things, like Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. Similar to past history with these beans, we had a potato chip eating test. But, instead of simply stomaching something undesirable, we performed a blind taste test to see if we could determine which flavor was which.
Step 1: Layout the chips according to flavor
Step 2: Fold the papers that label the chips, number and shuffle
Step 3: Eat. Until you're sick of potato chips. And you think you might never want to eat them again. Mark which number you think matches each flavor
And the flavors (I only matched 11 correctly):
Cheese and Onion
- Mature Cheddar and Chive
- Red Leicester and Spring Onion
- Cheese and Onion
- Soulmate Cheeses with Onion
- Vintage Cheddar and Carmelized Shallots
