Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream Chips

OFFICIAL SNACK REPORT
Sanctioned By WASAW Snack Committee

Reviewed By: Sir Snackalot Location: Vending Machine (Heaven) OFFICIAL NAME OF SNACK: Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream (they've learned from Kraft Cheese & Macaroni!) PRICE: $.40 WEIGHT: 1 oz. DESCRIPTION OF SNACK: Rippled thin slices of a baseball-sized potato. Not too big. SNACK LOOKS LIKE: Rippled Pringles. But since Ruffles was first, they look like themselves. SSI RATING (SNACK SATISFACTION INDEX - 1-10): 8.7

UPSIDE:

G-U-D good! Lot's O'Cheesy flavor. Sour cream kick upside yo' head for smack yo' lips goodness!

DOWNSIDE:

A bit thicker than I remember. Definitely not stale, but a somewhat of a challenge to chew. The last few I just sucked and sucked and sucked until they melted away in my mouth.

1ST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Potatoes
Vegetable Oil
Salt
Whey Protein

LAST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Artificial Flavors
Natural and artificial flavors
Disodium Inosinate (this is a new one!)
Disodium Guanylate

PACKAGING:

Pretty lame. Big Ruffles logos. I think there is some type of sun in the upper right hand corner, I have no idea what that means. A couple of model chips, too.

DO I RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS YOURSELF? (YES/NO - EXPLAIN):

Certainly. But those who can't handle a sharp cheese flavore, beware.

HOW CAN THE PRODUCT BE IMPROVED:

Make chips bigger and thinner. Some of these tasty morsels were in full shape/unbroken but smaller than a Frito.

IN THREE WORDS OR LESS, SUMMARIZE YOUR EXPERIENCE: Abiteuphoric, abitdelicious, abitmoreiwouldlike.
