...I really liked the grape fanta in the 2 liter long neck glass bottle, yum 8).

Fanta has made a comeback around here, but grape is nowhere to be found :cry:

I used to drink this stuff all the time as a kid. Best grape soda going....

I picked up my first bag of Cape Cod Sea Salt and Vinegar potato chips this morning. I plan to try them later and will report back... ;)

I just think about salt & vinegar and my mouth waters.... It's the Pavlov thing.

After spending a summer home (and much of it in front of the TV), any time I hear/read "Fanta" now, I think of these annoying TV commercials that have been on with the "Fantanas" singing "Wanna Fanta...dont'cha wanna, wanna Fanta...dont'cha wanna, wanna Fanta" :roll: Irritating, but it also has a tendency to get stuck in your head.

I think I have seen grape Fanta around here though.

Greg - Have you tried your chips yet?

(Edited to correct the lyrics to that darn annoying song! ;) )

If you think the English version is irritating, watch some Telemundo and check out the Spanish version.

I just tried some of the Cape Cod Garden Herb chips...not as good as the Sea Salt and Vinegar ones, but still very good... :)

Haven't seen that kind yet; just saw another newer type of Cap Cods, Jalapeno and Avocado. Gotta try those too.

I'm sitting here with my favs, Dark Russet. Mmmmmmmmm.

grrrr Still waiting for shipment of dark russets to the supermarket, and still working on those BBQ's. I might move on to Sea Salt & Vinegar though....I keep thinking about that.

New!

Miss Vickie's Black Pepper & Lime juice. These are really good. I bought these tonight at Quizno's. I could not find them anywhere else.

Wow, new to me too! There's a Quizno's about 30 miles away in Berlin, NH. I'll try to make it there very soon to try these new chips. (And their fine subs and soups.)

At the grocery store last night, I checked out the label on the Cape Cod Sea Salt & Vinegar chips. I went with Lay's Baked as I'm working on my cholesterol. But oh how I would have enjoyed those Cape Cod chips...

Wachusett all the way...made in Leominster MA
The plant used to be on Water St. in Fitchburg. Did they move? I used to live about 3 miles from the place, and had to drive right by it on the way to my aunt's house. The smell was heaven. My neighbor used to deliver for them - guess what he handed out on Halloween?

Go to your healthy food area at your grocery store and look for the chips that are cooked in olive oil. I do not know the brand name, but the bag has a foil look to it. They are very good, just a little pricey off sale. There are equivelant to the Cape Cod or other kettle cooked chips.

Charles Chips, which were delivered, in a giant tin (in the old days)
Crunch Taters, with the alligator on the bag, early 1990's
and Wise chips in the purple bag, which of course they don't make anymore!

Yuck! I seldom throw away chips, but I don't think I can plow my way thru the Garden Herb flavor. Blecch! Heading uptown now to see if the Dark Russet is in yet!

To each their own, I guess...I do have to give the Dark Russets a try at some point.

The Quizno's here in Nashua has the whole array of Miss Vickie's. Yesterday, I tried the lime & black pepper. Definitely a contender!
