Ethiquable Chips Pomme de Terre Blue Varietes Anciennes du Perou

The second packet of Peruvian crisps the Chef and I discovered, much to our surprise, in the very nice cafe between Geneva Airport railway station and the airport itself.  It's very civilised at Geneva; you take the train to the airport, and no mucking about with waiting for a bus or struggling through the rain, you simply transfer elegantly from one to the other. Huzzah!

Anyhow, this little packet of crisps from Peru was not entirely what the reluctant taste testers were expecting (except they had already seen the red version).

The bite is very soft compared to what we would normally expect. And the taste is a very gentle salted, with a lot of potato . Quite unusual really. Normal potato crisps don't really taste of potato do they? And Managerial taste tester (who it turns out was reading this blog at the weekend, I can't think why) noted I said he hardly ever commented (which is true), so he commented.

And what he said was, these crisps looks like fruity bird mess. What? Well, you know when the birds have been at the blackberries and their poo goes all purple? Well, that's what he meant. And I think we kind of agreed!
