In The Chips with Barry

This week on, Can It Sandwich? I put our contestants through the paces. Lay's Three Cheese Layers potato thingys, Calbee Giza Giza Yuzu Kaoru Shichimi potato chips, and Covered Bride Storm potato chips (essentially a deconstructed All Dressed) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Much like the Covered Bridge The Weekender potato chips, these Storm Chips are a combo of four distinct flavors - Smokin' Sweet BBQ, Sea Salt & Vinegar, Homestyle Ketchup, and Creamy Dill. And if you're thinking, “wait a sec, aren't those the flavors of All Dressed?” Pretty much, yeah. But instead it all being in one flavor, its more of a grab bag where in you might get a fistful of All Dressed flavor or another combination. These were sent to me by Brtittannie who is celebrating 6 years of being together with her now fiancé Scott. Congratulation, you two! Cheers!

So, I bought these chips because of the picture on the bag. But what I thought was togorashi, a Japanese five spice blend, turned out to be Yuzu Kaoru Shichimi, a Japanese seven spice blend that also uses dried Yuzu (citrus) peel. I also learned that “Giza Giza” means jagged. As in this ridged. I love to learn! Anyway, this potato chips flavor sounds interesting so let's stop with the readin' and get to the tastin'.

These engineered (the first ingredient is dried potatoes) Three Cheese potato snacks from Lay's look a lot, and I mean a lot, like Turtle Chips out of South Korea. I'm not saying they're identical, but boy howdy they are close. Anyway, these are supposed to have cheddar, parmesan, and gouda cheese flavor to ‘em. Let's see if they nailed that, shall we?

Yes, we're back with another Can It Sandwich? and this time we're seeing if two of the chips can be redeemed. Both Pringles Rotisserie Chicken and Calbee Super Potato Sour Cream and Onion really kind of faltered in the individual round. Will they sandwich well? Who knows. One thing I do know is that the Torres Select Smoked Hot Paprika will absolutely sandwich. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Ya know, with all the paprika flavored potato chips on the market I've long wondered why there weren't any Smoked Paprika flavored chips? Well, Tores Selecta must've thought the same thing. ¡Gracias! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yeah, I got a little exited when I saw the words SUPER POTATO written in huge text on the bag. I mean, who wouldn't? And while the flavor of Sour Cream and Onion feels overdone, the bag also had what looked like a roasted onion. So, how could I not buy em? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Sure, Pringles doesn't have the best track record with flavorings. At least not here in the United States. Still, rotisserie chicken seems like a flavor they should be able to nail. Should, however, is not the same will. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Chips Oman Chilli potato sticks, Megachips Yoghurt and Herbs potato chips, and, of course, LeBron James featured Ruffles Flamin' Hot Cheddar and Sour Cream. Should make for some tasty sandwiches. Let's find out. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

The big question, given that LeBron James is endorsing these chips, is will the flavor be a slam dunk? Come on, you know I had to make that joke right? Still, cheddar and sour cream is tasty combo and if they're actually “flamin' hot” this could be awesome. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Back in Bahrain today with Megachips Yoghurt and Herbs flavored potato chips. “what herbs?” you ask. We're just going to have to taste them to find out since they don't list them in the ingredients. By the way, this is another great find send in by my man Karl. Thanks Karl! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Honestly, I never thought I'd see Chips Oman again. I mean, chances of me make it to Oman are pretty slim and they aren't sold around here (that I know of, anyway). So here comes my man Karl hooking me up with Chips Oman Chilli flavored potato sticks. I kinda dig the potato stick format (see also Hickory Sticks) so I am looking forward to these. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Very different flavored chips this week. From Kettle's Sea Salt and Crushed Black Pepper potato chips (from the UK) to San Carlo Lime and Pink Peppercorn potato chips (from Italy) to U.S.-based Snacklins with their Cinnamon Churro vegan plant crisps. This promises to be one interesting “Can It Sandwich?” --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Well, well, well, if it isn't Snacklins back again. But this time bringing the sweet instead of the savory. Ok, I'm in. I loooooove churros (probably a little too much) so these have a high bar to reach. Just sayin'. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, we're back with another San Carlo potato chip. And just like last time, this not a flavor combo I've seen anywhere else - Lime and Pink Peppercorn? Alrighty then. Once again, I gotta shout out my man Karl for sending these in! Ok, let's get to it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Back to basics as the famed Fad Gadget once said. Of course, the wasn't talking about potato chips let alone Kettle's Sea Salt and Crushed Black Pepper potato chips. Still, I'm going to stand by the reference. Once again, we have my man Karl to thank for the crisps. Thanks Karl! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, all 3 of our chips this week had a cheese flavor about them but each was unique. Megachips Cheese & Onion potato chips, Siete Queso flavored potato chips, and Lay's of Saudi Arabia French Cheese potato chips. All were pretty tasty but can all of them sandwich? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, we're rounding out Cheese Week here on In The Chips with Barry with some more Siete action, this time their queso flavored potato chips that are…dairy free? Yep. Not an impossible task to pull off but by no means an easy one. I love queso so if these stand up, they'll really stand up. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Cheese Week here on In The Chips with Barry continues! Well, this is awkward. These potato chips from Lay's of Saudi Arabia (sent in by Karl, thank you!) say French Cheese but clearly shows Swiss cheese in the visuals

It's Cheese Week here on In The Chips with Barry and to kick things off, Megachips from the Kingdom of Bahrain is back! This time they're bringing the cheese and onion flavor. A classic combo throughout the world that for some insane reason is not a staple here in the United States. Go figure. Big ups to Karl for sending these to me. Much appreciate it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Very interesting variety of flavors this week. Vegan Rob's Turmeric and Black Pepper crisps, San Carlo Chili and Mint potato chips, and Rap Snacks Cardi B. Cheddar Bar-B-Q potato chips. Should be an interesting sandwich session! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Rap Snacks is back and this time it's Cardi B bringing the Cheddar Bar-B-Q flavor. You might recall, I loved Rap Snacks Notorious B.I.G. Honey Jalapeño flavor so my hopes for this are high. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Well, this is interesting. I don't know that I've ever had the combo of chili and mint. But hey, I'm willing to give it a go. These were sent in by Karl, thank you Karl! Let's give em a go. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, we're back with some Vegan Rob Pringle's knock off action. This time with the unusual (at least for chips in the United States) combo of turmeric and black pepper. The last flavor I tried was tasty but didn't quite nail the underlying Pringles flavor. Let's see if these get closer to it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

All three of the flavors this week, Backyard Cheeseburger potato chips from Kroger, Megachips Paprika potato chips, and Old Dutch Dill Pickle potato chips were super tasty. I have a feeling we're gonna see a triple 5 sandwich score here. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

I loves me some dill pickle anything. So, yeah, I am looking forward to checking out these Old Dutch Dill Pickle potato chips that were sent in by Jasmine (thank you!) --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

This is definitely a first on In The Chips with Barry, potato chips from the Kingdom of Bahrain! Paprika flavored potato chips sent in by my man Karl (thank you!). I dig the idea of paprika potato chips. This should be a slam-dunk. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Finally, the great taste of cheeseburger and the great taste of backyard - on a potato chip! I love the concept behind this potato chip flavor but boy howdy, a cheeseburger has a lot of different flavors going. I mean, grilled meat, mustard, ketchup, pickles, and cheese at a minimum. So far, Kroger has really done an excellent job with their flavored potato chips so my hopes are high. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

It's that time of the week, time to see if the chips I reviewed during the week can cut it in sandwich form. Today we'll be putting the Chicken Tikka Masala potato chips from Krogers, the Teriyaki vegan plant crisps from Snacklins, and the Doner Kebab flavored Pringles to the test. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Alrighty, time for another flavored Pringles. And because they aren't from the United States, we should be in good shape. The ingredients list is impressive and if they even come close to nailing the flavor to a doner kebab, these may well be one epic Pringles flavor. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Veering off of the potato chips train to check out some vegan plant crisps from Snacklins. I've had their Chesapeake Bay (see also Old Bay) flavor and really enjoyed them. And given that I like teriyaki this may well be a slam dunk --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yep, only two of this week's reviewed snacks made it to “Can It Sandwich?” Sorry, beer flavored chips from Lay's China, it just wasn't meant to be. But still have Pop Daddy's Yellow Mustard Pretzel Sticks as well as Kroger Reuben Sandwich potato chips and by gum we're a gonna sandwich ‘em. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Ok, this is odd. I mean, beer and potato chips go great together but never have I ever thought, “hey, there should beer flavored potato chips.” And yeah, I tried the Guinness flavored chips and they were interesting but they didn't try to actually emulate a Guinness. More like the spirit of a Guinness. From what I've heard about these chips…well, let's just see, shall we? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Aww yeah, fresh off the high from last week that was the Kroger Prime Rib and Horseradish Potato Chips, we're back, baby. And this time we're taking on Kroger's Reuben Sandwich Potato Chips. I love a Rueben Sandwich, in fact, I recently did that on one of my other channels Sandwiches of History --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yep, it's a first. The first time I've reviews pretzels on In The Chip with Barry. I figure it's gonna be the first why not do it with a flavor my buddy Chad sent me from Pennsylvania. The combo of yellow mustard and salty pretzel is a no-brainer. That is, unless the don't nail --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Oh yeah, this week's Can It Sandwich? as high potential as the Kroger Prime Rib and Horseradish potato chips, Vegan Rob's Dragon Crisps, and Calbee My Pote Garlic Herb Butter potato chips were all super tasty. Let's get to sandwiching. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Why the two flags, you ask? Well it's because despite Calbee being a Japanese company, these chips are made here and specifically are for the American market. My Pote Garlic Herb Butter flavored potato chips are right up my alley. As long as the nail the flavor, that is. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Not gonna lie, I don't know if Pringles are vegan or not. Apparently Vegan Rob saw an opportunity though and here were are with what are essentially knock-offs of Pringles. The promise is one of heat. Do they pay it off? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Come on, prime rib and horseradish on a potato chip? Boy, if Kroger nails the flavor this is going to be one epic potato chip. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, Conn's Green Onion potato chips, Ballreich's Smokey Sweet Mesquite potato chips, and Martin's Red Hot potato chips are making the scene this week on Can It Sandwich? Something tells me they're all going to sandwich just fine but hey, you never know. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Well, well, well, if it isn't another Red Hot flavored potato chips. Well, not red hot as in the cinnamon candy but spicy. Anyway, my man Chad sent these in from Pennsylvania (thank you!). And despite their use of the worst font ever created (hobo) I'm gonna try ‘em. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, I've reached the end of the Ballreich's chips on hand. Thanks again to Josh for sending em in. Today, I'm taking on Smokey Sweet Mesquite. A lot of times when a potato chip brand says a specific type of flavor like mesquite, they really just mean “bbq.” Not to mention a lot of BBQ flavored potato chips are overly sweet. So it should be interesting to see how Ballreich's does with it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Ya know, you don't see green onion (or scallion) as a standalone potato chip flavor and now I'm starting to wonder why. I mean it's a brilliant idea. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Yes, we're only allowing 2 chips on Can It Sandwich? this week. Snyder of Berlin Smoked Gouda potato chips and the Caviar potato chips from Torres. And I think they're going to be pretty tasty tbh. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Well, the package says potato chips. Yet, upon opening they were, in fact, shaped chips made from potato starch and potato powder. Still, that doesn't mean they're going to be terrible, per se. Right? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Sit back, relax, and enjoy some good old fashioned schmancy ASMR action. I also did a full review which was posted on Wednesday 1/19/22. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Oh la la, la la, la la, la la! It's a schmancy flavor on a potato chip! Caviar flavored potato chips from Torres all the way in España. This is kind of brilliant combo if you think about it. The briny, fishy goodness of caviar with potatoes? Yes! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Oh boy, I might be a little too excited for these bad boys. Smoke Gouda flavored potato chips sent in by my man Chad (thank you!). I loooove smoked gouda so if these come close paying off the flavor we're looking at a 5 star chip. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Well, this is embarrassing. This was supposed to publish on January 12th. Oops! Yes, the Marcelled potato chips of Ballreich's is back. And this time it's Bar-B-Q flavor! I was really into their Ghost Pepper Jack potato chips so I am excited to be trying these ones sent out by Josh (thank you! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support

Oh, this is gonna be good. Estrella Ranch and Sour Cream chips from Sweden, Ballreich's Bar-B-Q potato chips from Ohio, and Lay's of Thailand's BBQ Prik Zag Zeed all in one episode? Yep! They all did well during the week which always bodes well for sandwiching. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthechips/support
