Lay's Smokey Bacon, hands down.

Ohhh my favorite. So many choices. Miss Vickies I would have to say. Any flavor will do. I love the texture, the cruch, perfectly salted. The sea salt and malt vinager have a real bit to them...The jalepeno ones are incredibly firey. I must say, Original is best...

I love Salt and Pepper flavored Kettle Chips.

The salt & pepper Kettle Chips are awesome. I like salt & vinegar anything. I also love cheddar and sour cream Ruffles. Oh and original Fritos on top of a bowl of chili is heavenly. I think I know what I'm having for dinner now!

It's hard to beat Cheddar & Sour Cream Ruffles, it's true.
I also have a sudden appreciation for Lays Light. They taste far better than the Baked Lays, and are somehow better for you.

Favorite chip: Anything that's crunchy, made of corn, and that I can stick in guacamole.
Favorite snack: Dark chocolate, nuts (salted almonds, preferably), and strong coffee.

Glenny's Soy Crisps in White Cheddar and Creamy Ranch, and Stacy's Pita Chips in Texarkana (all three of these are especially good with Greek yogurt). I've never liked potato chips, and tortilla chips make me miss summers in California!

Herr's ketchup chips really do it for me. But then again,anything with ketchup does it for me. I also have to admit a weakness for Terra Chip spiced taro and parsnip varities.

For me it's in the combining. Barbecue Twist Fritos and Gallo dry salami, plain Ruffles and Lipton Onion Dip made with a couple shots of worcestershire, chili and sharp cheddar over regular Fritos, Gueerrro tortilla chips and homemade pico de gallo, homemade flour tortilla chips and homemade guacamole. Mmmmm...chips...

Bayless' Frontera tortilla chips with any of his awesome salsas.

Creole tomoto Zapps. They are a local (new orleans) brand sorta like kettle, but with even more interesting flavors.
malenky at 12:10PM on 02/16/07
Almost anything Kettle Chip, and Lays Ketchup.
Marilyn at 12:44PM on 02/16/07
Ooh, the Bayou Onion Zapps I had when I was in New Orleans were heavenly.
And regarding dips: Helluva Good really needs to get distributed nationwide. Or at least downstate. Such perfection.

Kettle Chips are awesome. As are the Maui sweet onion chips. I forget what brand they are, but I can't stop eating them.
As for the weirder snack things I like - shrimp chips, dried cuttlefish, salted dried prunes, dried and salted orange peels are not for the faint of heart, but they're what I grew up eating. When I was in China, we made a beeline for all the different snack stores.
Has anyone tried the new more upscale Pocky called Fran? It's way, way tastier than Pocky. (But a bit more expensive.)

toastykitten, my friends and I developed a serious Fran obsession while in Japan in high school. My favorite flavor is Fran Duo - white chocolate layered with dark chocolate, yummmmm.

Stacy's pita chips with All Seasons Kitchens' roasted garlic salsa cream cheese dip. I'm crushed that my Costco no longer carries that dip.

We really need more variety in ketchup chips here in the States; Herr's are just meh. Canadian Lays ketchup chips are really good, and their dill pickle are decent, too.
Utz is a mid-Atlantic chip brand that is much better than any of the national brands, or those in the northeast for that matter (e.g., Wise), which tend to be too salty. Utz' Cheddar and Sour Cream are fabulous, as are their regular chips.

Any kind of BBQ chip with Eastern Salsa From The All Spice Company Out of Eugene Or http://www.theallspiceco.com/salsa.html
