So here is my first foray into the world of snack review. I asked my wife to pick me up a bag of chips at the grocery store for me to review. She came back with these.
Opening the Bag: The bag used for containing these chips is just about right in the difficulty in opening department. Just a good firm pull gets the bag open.
Appearance: The color and appearance of these chips is very consistent and appealing. A perfect golden brown with just a hint of a darker brown on some of the edges. There doesn't appear to be any burnt chips in the bag. I should also point out that these are a consistently small potato chip. The largest chip you will find in the bag will fit easily into your mouth.
Crunch: These are some crunchy chips. They definitely fall into the kettle cooked genre of chip. The crunchiness is very consistent from chip to chip.
Flavor: We found these chips to be very tasty. They are just the right amount of oil and salt. The salt is a tad lighter than you will find in most salted potato chips. But the amount of salt they use allows you to actually taste a hint of potato in the chips.
Chip Quality: Excellent. Very few broken chips. Even the ones left at the bottom of the bag. Perhaps this is because of the small chip diameter. And the thick kettle cut style.
Ingredients: Potatoes, canola oil and salt.
Final thoughts: Love these chips. Some of the best unflavored chips on the market today. I really feel like Cape Cod Potato Chips are to potato chips what Samuel Adams is to beer. A New England upstart. That has elbowed its way to a prominent position in the snack food aisle of the grocery store. Not with advertising money. But with quality ingredients and a great final product.
