Cape Cod Jalapeno & Aged Cheddar Potato Chips

Cost: $3.29
Size: 8oz Photobucket

This brand initially got picked simply upon name merit, because my favorite drink is a cape cod. You can't go wrong with vodka, cranberry juice, and lime. Presumably, you also can't go wrong with jalapeno and aged cheddar in chip form.

Cape Cod's website promises "a spicy, yet creamy jalapeno cheddar flavor that is sure to please the most discriminating jalapeno fans". Well. We'll just see about that.

Upon opening the bag, I'm initially concerned with small green spots on the chips, thinking yet again that there's unnecessary chives on my jalapeno chips. Gladly, I soon find that the small green dots are actually jalapenos! Imagine that!

Biting into the first chip is a great experience - immediately an aged cheddar taste comes through. It's definitely in the forefront. However, soon after that comes the biting jalapeno feel and then the hot jalapeno taste. There's a nice sting, but it's not overpowering to the flavor.

These chips are kettle-cooked, so nice and crunchy is the word. Other than being a bit high in price, there's nothing I can complain about. They are currently at the top of my jalapeno chip list. Congratulations, Cape Cod chips - you don't suck.
