Smokey Snakz: Your Favorite Pantry Staple

Edited by Nadia Dupuis and Ms. Barry

Barbecue chips are a creative spin on the classic potato chip. They are quite popular, a staple in many pantries, and sold in stores almost everywhere. Eaten during football games and dinner parties alike, these snacks are a favorite.

But how do people really feel about them? Many students have told us that barbecue chips are their favorite. One junior contends, “...they go well with sandwiches,” and other students concur, “They taste really good!” The smokey punch that comes with the crispy crunch of the chip makes it a delectable snack for every occasion. 

However, others argue that they are just a “mediocre” food and that there are better snacks to eat. Some are not fans of the tanginess and prefer the classic potato chip. They argue that the barbecue taste is too artificial and covers the original potato taste they know and love. 

Although most people who were asked enjoyed the barbecue flavor, it does not matter which stance is taken, as we can all bond over our love of potato chips. And if you don’t like them, too bad!
