Archer Farms Parmesan Garlic

Ah, another day, another chip.  Something about these Archer Farms chips makes me feel like I’m eating a higher class chip than I really am.  Maybe it’s the logo.  Maybe it’s the package.  Who knows?  I do love the fact the bags are reclosable like a ziplock bag.

But this isn’t about me, it’s about the chips.  In this case, a Parmesan Garlic chip.  The problem with cheese chips is that they normally come off tasting like some processed cheese product.  And this case is no different.  While the chips have a light cheese taste, I struggle to find the parmesan taste, and even the garlic taste.  In fact, without looking at the bag, it passes as sour cream and onion in a blind test.  A far cry from the advertised parmesan garlic they are supposed to be.  While not an unpleasant taste, it isn’t exactly what was expected.

And while these are kettle cooked chips, they lack the crunch you expect from a good kettle cooked chip.  Still better than your usual chip, but not up to par with the rest of the kettle cooked products I have tasted.

Over all, these chips were a disappointment to me, mainly due to the fact that the taste just doesn’t live up to its expectations.

And remember, if you have tried these chips, leave your own review in the comments, and give them your own overall rating by rating the review.
