Ok, I suppose this is my first official POTATOE chip factor rating. Today at work I ate Smiths thinly cut sour cream and onion. The first thing I noticed before I had even one bite was the colour of the packet, that baby blue, why did they choose that colour? Sour cream is not that colour, onion is not that colour, the whole thing intrigues me, and annoys me a little. I would make the bag red with green shallot tops sticking up from the bottom of the picture and a label dobbing sour cream on the shallots.

Now the taste of the sour cream and onion crisps is high in the shour cream department and low in the onion department, whereas the other way 'round would be mofe suited to my palate. Nonetheless I do like eating these chips. Flavourwsie they are like Luigi to Mario.... always in the backdrop and... boring and lacking edge. I'm not a big fan of the thinly cut crisp movement, and would love to return to the glory days of the crinkle cut.... sigh. Anywhodaloo for these chips I give a chip factor of 3.
