Actually, I truly will choose salty snacks over sweet nearly every time. Chocolate is my choice when I swing over to the sweet side.

Oh, but I am a little weak for Jelly Belly jelly beans.

Hey....Hey....Hey.....no swinging with little kids in the house.

I like the kettle cooked type chips best. I've had these really good ones you can get at specialty stores - I the the flavor was Rosemary and Olive oil. Yum! Salt and vinegar are great, too. My hubby loves the Cape Cod ones.

I also have a yen for Pringles!

Cape Cod chips are the best. I noticed an interesting remark to one of your posts this morning. I will only comment that I enjoy all of your posts and look forward to more.

Only bad thing about the Fritos Corn Chips is the chip breath you carry around for an hour or two, but they are so good.

Thanks, Joe! Yes, I found that one interesting as well, but I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt for now...

Doritos are even worse for that!

Spot on. I got a funny story about eating pickled eggs and doritos: while drinking beer in a friends poorly ventilated basement during the USC--Notre Dame football game a couple of years ago. Too early for the story. Enjoy the snow day.

Here's a really funny story. When I was in fifth grade, I went to my first school dance in the school gym. My mom was always very conservative with the junk food, so when I found Doritos being served with the other refreshments, I indulged.

Well, being 10 (and not an experienced Dorito consumer), I didn't realize the perils of eating them until one of the boys I had danced with told me I had "Dorito breath"! Let's face it - ten year olds have no etiquette skills.

I was mortified!!

Sounds flammable. Sure hope no one lit up a cig.

But now I appreciate how far I've come - only worry now is "sinus breath."

I'm wondering that too.....and got all paranoid in case I said something that unintentionally offended someone. I keep re-reading the recent posts but I'm still at a loss?

I'm thinking perhaps it was on a different thread, and if so, I may know which one it was. It was that goofy "did we really send men to the moon?"

Is that it, guys?

Just got back from Target. Picked up a bag of Archer Farms Maui Onion kettle potato chips. Am sampling them now with a can of Pepsi. How's that for a good lunch? The chips are good, but a little tame. Still quite nice.

Has anyone tried dill potato chips? They're pretty good.

Have never tried them. Have looked at them a few times. I think I'm stuck
in the "plain chips" rut. Kinda like vanilla is my most favourite ice cream flavour!

Maui Onion? Sounds like a vacation with bad breath! Seriously, I've considered trying those, but didn't knwo if they were super onion-y or not. I've tried the Pringle's Dill pickle chips and like those.

I'm always a sucker for a new. adventurous flavor!

Vanilla's good - but better once you mix in chocolate!

One day I put some pickled eggs in Al's lunch. The guys told him to tell me that I'm not allowed to do that any more unless I send enough for all of them!

Should I assume a pickled egg is just an egg marinated in brine - like pickled cucumbers?? Sounds smelly! Where do you even buy such things?

I've made them before in white vinegar. Hard boil some eggs and let them sit in a jar filled with the stuff for about 6 weeks. You can also put garlic and hot peppers in the jar
