not in georgia either. flavored chips is always a little strange to me, cuz there's nothing 'natural' about potato chips tasting like ketchup is already in them... but i guess it's no different than BBQ chips, which i do like, so maybe i should just accept the artificial world we live in

Ketchup doesn't grow on trees.

What if I made you a dish where I cooked potatoes with onion, vinegar, salt and pepper, cloves, allspice, and tomatoes? That's basically the whole thing, other than preservatives. Oh, and sugar and cinnamon, which are usually ingredients in a decent ketchup.

You forgot garlic, will, which is also frequently found in a good ketchup.

Ah, of course! I must have been just waking up to forget garlic.

Damn MPAA\RIAA, hate those bastards. I'll have to take a gander for these chips tonight at the grocery store, need to try something different.

I have to agree with Will. I noticed these in a vending machine at school a few weeks ago, and they're damned good.

This reminds me of a sad event in my life.

My school vending area installed a 'fry machine'.

It would cook the fries right there when you hit the button, as in frozen ones fell in hot oil and you got fresh fries every time.

It was awesome, it was heaven, it made a 2 hour lecture seem like a happy place.

It....made the entire school smell like french fries. About two weeks later it was gone due to some administrator complaint.

They gave us a glimpse of nirvana and snatched it from us.

Life, has not been the same.

These things are nasty. Now, if they were Wendy's fries, that would be alright. But, BK fries are the worst in the industry by a long shot.

Why have I never seen one of those around here!!

This was like 10 years ago.

I'm going to guess someone figured out that 'really hot oil', 'unsupervised' and 'vending machine' didn't work out so well.

Air-cooked fries. Sounds like turbocharged convection baking. I want one.

ItWasMe

I still haven't found any BK chips around here. The TGIFridays chips are good, though. Especially the mozzarella stix chips.

Edit: I found them today at a Plaid Pantry. The Fries/Ketchup aren't bad. But the Flame Broiled ones are pretty good.

Haha, crazy American grocery stores and their lack of ketchup flavours! This is one of the most common flavours here in the great north. lol

We actually designed those at my office. (the packaging graphics)
I thought they were pretty nasty smelling and couldn't bring myself to taste one.

Daniel_

100% agreement.

In the UK, BK put some sort of wanky varnish on their fries. Yeurch!

You're not missing anything. Don't worry.

They're actually not bad. My daughter found them today, of all the places, in a Walgreens. Even the cashier asked where we found them and couldn't wait to get herself a bag.

I give it a thumbs up. Better than most of the regular potato chips out there.
