Chips

I can't stand any kind of prepared freezer chips or oven chips. Reconstituted potato masquerading as something tasty, just disgusting. Not that I'm some kind of foodie or whatever they're called, but the only chips that are worthy of the name are the ones you make yourself. Five minutes is all it takes to peel and chip enough for about three people. Soak them to get rid of the starch, dry, then fry turning up the heat for the last few minutes to crisp them up a bit, beautiful. Freezer chip just don't seem to cook or crisp up right. They always seem to have this bizarre, oddly chewy rubbery texture. I mean chewy chips are just are not on. I'd swear they have an aftertaste too but I seem to alone in thinking that. I don't know, maybe its some kind of placebo effect or something but I'd bet I'm not the only one who hates the things.

Or chips from chippers either now that I think of it or at least none from any I've gone to, just always a bit too soggy fro my taste. Crispy dammit.
