Man I love potatoes, I really do. Some people claim to love potatoes but they just like getting them and frying them up or baking them and covering them in sauces or ketchup or something. Me I could eat a baked potato plan; fries with nothing, I just love the taste of lone potato. The great thing about chips is it's a great way to enjoy potatoes and a great way to get all the salt I need in my diet (I have low blood pressure).

This also leads me the fact that I really like PEI, not just because the fact that they're the potato capital here in Canada. It's a nice place to visit. So while visiting PEI I figured I couldn't wear the name Candy Critic without trying a bag of PEI chips. Or at least I think they are.

You see after reading the bag I realised that these are in fact packaged in PEI but there's nothing on the bag that totally implies that the potatoes inside are locally grown. I was under the impression that they might be fresher because of the rustic design of the bag and my ability to believe anything that's thrown my direction.

What I found was a little disappointing. Really these just taste like your average bag of chips. They're not even a little fancy or kettle baked. It's not that they say that they should be or anything, but I think it's implied. I would have been much happier with pot of boiled new potatoes.
