I spent some time in New Jersey for work. I wasn't there, too long, but it was definitely a memorable experience! Every morning I'd awake at 4 am to catch the subway from Jersey City into Newark. The main thing that struck me as odd was how nobody acknowledged anybody else. I hold the door open for someone, 50 people walk through without saying anything. Sure, that happens in California. But usually at least one out of every 3 people will say thanks or at least acknowledge your presence. Once a rabbi sat next to me in the only available seat on the train and put his groceries in my lap. Didn't ask. Didn't even look at me. He was elderly so I didn't say anything. I just smirked to myself at how he gave absolutely no fucks about putting his bags full of groceries on a strangers lap. Either that, or how unimposing of a figure I must've casted wearing a suit and tie listening to Hi-C and DJ Quik in my earbuds. Trying to talk to chicks on the train was also damn near impossible. I asked a girl how she was doing and she put her purse on the opposite side and just looked out the window. She eventually opened up and explained that nobody really talks to anybody in the subway. Maybe my opening was all wrong. I guess I should've slammed my bag down on her lap then said hi. All in all it was a cool experience, but I was glad to get back to the sunshine and traffic of California.
These chips are weird. Upon opening the bag, you get a strong smell of rye bread. So strong that if you leave the bag open, you can smell them from a few feet away. There are very distinct levels of flavor on this chip. First being the flavor of rye and pickles finishing off with the unmistakable flavor of thousand island dressing. The flavor was so strong that I didn't want to like these initially, but the more I ate them, the more I liked them. If you don't like rye bread, you probably won't like these. The rye flavor is the most prominent flavor. The thousand island flavor borders on off putting, but there's such a savory component to these that I keep eating them. Enjoying them more with each bite. I almost love them. I almost hate them. 3.5 on the chip mack scale.
