• A food review (not good)

    From Dale Shipp@1:261/1466 to All on Friday, August 10, 2018 01:20:00
    I do not normally do food reviews, but this time we tried a product that
    was so bad (to us) that I decided to warn folks here.

    The product is a variety of Utz potato chips. Recently they have been
    coming out with all sorts of different flavors, some of which stick
    around and others of which disappear. This one is called spicy buffalo
    dip flavored potato chips. Gail had one chip and gave the rest of the
    bag to me. I barely detect any of what I might expect in a buffalo
    wings type of flavor. What I get is a very strong vinegar (which is why
    Gail tossed them after one chip). I would describe it as being take
    your favorite buffalo wings hot sauce (ours is Crystals) and then dilute
    it four to one with vinegar. There is heat, but no flavor other than
    the vinegar.

    Don't try these at home :-}}

    I won't, I promise with my hand raised. Bv)=

    My experience with flavoured chips has been that the only honestly named varieties are the "Salt & Vinegar". For some reason nearly every sort
    of flavoured chip that I have tried gives me heartburn that could light downtown Cleveland.

    The sole exception is Nacho Cheese Doritos - and I suspect that is due
    to my use of them as a "dipper". They are actually "cheesy" in a good
    way, not overly salty and hold up well to scooping up French Onion or
    Bleu Cheese or Ranch Dip(s) - or my favourite .... Guacamole.

    Title: Guacamole Caliente
    Categories: Sauces, Fruits, Chilies, Citrus
    Yield: 16 Servings

    2 lg Ripe avocados
    4 Plum tomatoes; seeded
    1 cl Garlic; minced
    2 JalapeƱos; seeded, minced
    1/4 c Minced red onion
    1 tb Lemon juice
    1 tb Fresh lime juice
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Tabasco (or other) hot sauce
    2 tb Chopped fresh cilantro

    Quarter the avocado, discard the pit and peel away the
    skin. Mash the pulp.

    Chop the tomatoes. This is easily done with a few pulses
    in the food processor. The garlic and jalapenos can be
    minced in a small spice grinder or mini processor.

    Mix together all ingredients. If not serving immediately,
    cover with plastic wrap so that the plastic touches the
    guacamole. The absence of air will prevent browning.

    Makes 16 servings
