speaking of chips. yesterday when doing our big box store stock up grocery run we came across some sweet potato corn chips and since we were looking for the bags of sweet potato chips that they had last time (but were out of this time) we decided to give them a try. first crunch was a bit lighter in texture than a whole corn chip, but then after some chewing the sweetness of the sweet potato came through. as usual with cornchips and me it's hard to stop eating them at just a few. i made a plate of chips with some thin sliced cheese melted on top and then sprinkled with hot sauce. i could have easily eaten a few more plates of those. a few weeks ago i made some taco meat for taco salad or nachoes and put portions in the freezer so i'm sure we'll be doing a taco salad and/or nachoes at some point during the next few weeks.
when we asked someone about the lack of sweet potato chips he said that they only get a few pallets in at a time of different varieties of chips and then once they are gone they only put them back out when they get a few more. no regular supplier.
in a similar vein there were some purple potato chips from our favorite chip maker that we could have tried but Mom didn't see them and i was already happy with having some corn chips for a change. corn chips are my favorite form of corn for food i can't think of any other way i like corn more than perhaps fire roasted corn on the cob.
