What's your favorite, potato chip?


I really want to know.

There has been a misunderstanding. My question was, "What's your favorite?" and "potato chip" was just a term of affection for all the good MCers out there.
I used to know a woman who when she played with her cats would babble nonsense free-style. Once I heard her say, "how's my little potato chip?" and I still laugh about it.
"I really want to know" comes from some song I can't think of at the moment.

But while we're talking about it, when I was a kid I used to think Pringles were the best. I liked how I could take a whole chip, put it in my mouth always the same way, and ... mmm ... salt !
When I was hanging out with this particular woman, I tried to win her heart with Barbeque potato chips as they seemed to be her favorite. After a while she seemed to get sick of me being nice to her. What are you supposed to do with a person like that?

Some dude at a convenience store recently recommended Queso flavored Ruffles, but for me, spice just for the sake of spice doesn't work. The simpler, the better.
If I go to the Dollar Store I'll get the Wavy style of generic chips. I think it's largely a tactile sense thing, in that they are thicker and the ridges feel good in my mouth. They have substance, while regular potato chips to me feel like eating just for the sake of the activity. There's no food there.
From a health standpoint, I would urge people not to eat potato chips at all, and I successfully avoided them as a common food item for most of my adult life. Same with french fries. (Don't worry, I have plenty of other vices not to be lecturing people about their lifestyle choices. Still, we all should consider being smart about what we ingest, I hope there's no argument there.) I'd rather not support corporations making astronomical mark-ups on food that has no nutritional value at all. I like to imagine I'm at least getting some needed energy from a fast food cheeseburger, at least that's my rationalization.

I saw the comma and was wondering why you called me a potato chip and was wondering what favorite thing you were asking about.

Salt and vinegar. Delicious!

I'm sorry, I forgot the comma.

My game group spent years doing a "chip of the week." We all tried to bring the weirdest chips we could find. Dill pickle, ketchup & mustard, steak & onions, and all of those weird contest winners (was it Lays?) like Chicken and Waffle, Capucino, Tomato Basil, and Abattoir & Ass. Found some unusual favorites and threw away many a half bag full.

I like Lay's potato chips the most.
