I'm afraid of monsters and shit. There, I've said it out loud. A fear that has stuck with me since childhood.  It's not a paralyzing fear, but I'm always cautious when entering a dark kitchen late at night for a midnight snack. When washing my face alone late at night in the shower, I rinse my face as fast as I can see if a monster hand is trying to grab me. Sleeping with my bare feet off the edge of the bed? Hell no! I've also kicked in a few doors when coming home late at night and I've forgotten to leave lights on. Don't get me wrong, I know monsters don't exist, but I'm not gonna get caught slipping just in case.  Just in case.

Anyway, these new Bacon and Cheddar Ruffles are the SHIT!  The chip is thicker to handle the deeper ridges. Because of the thicker texture, there's a heavier potato flavor that perfectly compliments the bacon and cheddar flavor.  I was also pleasantly surprised to see and taste the specks of green onion on the chip.  Great texture, nicely seasoned with great flavors,  great chip! 5 outta 5 on the chip mack scale!

I miss having crushes on bitches. It's been so long! I don't know if it's something you grow out of, or if it's just a matter of not being exposed to "crush worthy" chicks as often as when you're in school. Either way, I miss it! I miss the mystery of that special one person that you've had your eye on for some time. Hiding in the bushes, trying to find out her name, seeing where she lives and works....ahhh....the good old days.

Anyway,  these chips have my mind in a knot. Let's start with the blue bag known as Test Flavor 2653. Upon first bite I get an immediate intense smoke flavor with bbq like spices. The finish is noticeably sweet with a mellow spicy kick. I don't know, these taste like a unique bbq flavor to me. Nothing too special.  Looking at the ingredients to give me a hint; I see chocolate liqueur, cocoa powder, natural bacon type flavor.  Are these supposed to be molé flavored?! Because a good portion of my rating is how well the advertised flavor is recreated on the chip,  I can only rate based on pure flavor and enjoyment because I have no idea what these are. 3.5 outta 5 on the chip mack scale.

Now for the yellow bag aka Test Flavor 404. Upon first bite I get a MAJOR kick of ginger. These are obviously Asian inspired.  I don't know what the flavor is supposed to be, but I taste a deliciously strong ginger note up front with finishes of onion and very well balanced citrus flavors. Although ginger is not listed in the ingredients,  I taste it. It's real to me damnit!  Again, because I don't know what this flavor is I'm basing my rating on pure taste and enjoyment.  These are unique and unlike anything I've ever tasted. It's a cool experience,  but they get a little too "citrusy" for my taste after a few bites. 3 outta 5 on the chip mack scale.
