Elite's Tapuchips Potato Sticks

I have a feeling this is not the first time I've seen a potato-stick snack pack from Tapuchips Elite but, I'm not 100% sure. Maybe this is a new product for them or maybe it's just a "new and improved" version.

I do like the fact that the Tapuchips line of products are, as their slogan goes; "it’s a potato in a bag".  They are all natural, no preservatives and nothing artificial added. They only have 3 simple ingredients potatoes, oil and salt. Tapuchips gets major points for that in my book.

The new packaging was not at all easy to open. Once I did get it open, I liked that by opening it on the side it created a rectangular shaped bag. This forms a more shallow bag so no need to dig deep in an oily bag to get the potato-sticks out. This should be particularly convenient for a child's smaller hand.

The potato-sticks were fresh, crunchy and had a nice thick texture. One thing I personally do not like about the classic Tapuchips potato chip is how thin a chip it is. This potato-stick is not too thin and that is a plus for me.

I wouldn’t mind if they were slightly less oily. They did leave my fingers somewhat oily but not more than your average potato-stick.

Bottom Line:  If you are looking for an all natural potato-snack I would say this could be a good option.

 Since I'm on the topic of potatoes, checkout this photo I recently took of a french-fry container at KFC, in the Malcha mall.(Please forgive the poor cell phone quality of the photo.)  Granted "potatoes" is not the easiest word in the English language with regards to spelling (even Dan Quayle had a hard of it) but to me KFC's spelling seems simply ridicules.
