Lay's Kettle Cooked Lattice Cut Roasted Garlic & Sea Salt

Another gift from lovely friend Lynn who packed them carefully in her suitcase when she came to visit from the USA. And I must say the lattice cut crisps survived the journey far better than the regular crisps she brought.

I don't think I have had lattice cut crisps before but I really like the texture. There's a very pleasing crunch and they feel good in the mouth.

And then there's the taste. A delicate garlic flavour and not too much salt. Pretty good. We liked these crisps.

Plus they work terrifically well with our favourite sour cream and chive dip. So what could be better than that?

Well... but the bag is giant! 198.4g (7oz) is a massive amount of crisps to buy at a time. Especially when the serving size is 28g (1oz or about 13 chips - very precise eh?). And actually, this is interesting (to me anyway); US crisp bags are quite different from European crisp bags. They're much more matte. I wonder why? I wonder what they're made of? And there's quite a bit missing from the scan of this bag. It was simply too long to fit in the A4 scanner.

The packet tells me all sorts of interesting things. For instance, the crisps are

  • Guaranteed Fresh! 
  • Lay's Kettle Cooked Lattice Cut potato chips - perfect for sharing and Crafted With Care
  • No artificial flavors or preservatives
  • Made with Lay's "signature potatoes"
  • From the FritoLay® Flavor Kitchen® 
and the brilliant information that they are Deliciously Indulgent. Take a moment to relax (it says), unwind from your day and savor right now - one delicious bite at a time.

What good advice.
