I wonder if I have a weird mouth or if we're eating doritos differently. Makes me want to eat some, not for taste, but to try to figure out how that can happen

It could also be that me and others have soft palettes, so perhaps it's happened to you, but your Dorito-hardened palette is like a pock-marked war zone, and you feel no pain.

But these are my weakness.

My stomach hates me afterwards, but these are so good.

I mean, I've never had anything like what people call "brain-freeze" either. The only thing that happens to me is when I bite into a pizza to early, I can burn the roof of my mouth, but that's rare and only happened once I started making my own food at home, so don't you go implying it's burn scars or something! >:C

Kettle cooked chips are the best chips because of that excellent CROMCH, OP.

Sounds like you need to go to the dentist, OP. Kettle chips are the best and I've never had any issues with my teeth while eating them.

Your nuts OP. Start going to the dentist and taking care of your teeth because Kettle chips are the best, particularly Jalapeño flavored ones. The sea salt and black pepper ones are great too.

What kind of kettle cooked chips are you eating?

Also, they are fantastic.

Grandma Utz. It's like they carve each chip out of a cooled down vat of salty lard.

But I like em.

Wow this is strange even for this forum. They are definitely crunchy but brittle af and if you have a hard time with them your teeth must be brittle too lol.

I never buy anything but kettle chips. Brands like hardbites and miss vickies shit all over Doritos, old Dutch , etc

Anyway, Cape Cod chips are great. It's weird to me how a potato chip can have so much flavor.

I don't understand the comparison to kettle corn.

do you compare regular chips and popcorn in the same way? They're two completely different foods.

Op is right, kettle chips (I've had all the brands save it) are just a more expensive, worse, hipster version of an already decent food item. Why yes I love inconsistent hard lumps and absolute over-seasoning, instead of you know, a regular potato chip*

Also in this thread we will probably have a bunch of folks who think Filet Mignon is the best cut of steak because of the cost, even though it's very often too dry and flavorless. God forbid you go for a cheaper and delicious strip.

Let's also pay extra for flavorless white meat chicken. Dark meat is scary, it costs less and has actual taste.

OMG op this has turned out to be such a trigger. Stop overpaying for worse crap people!

I would go see a dentist.

Kettle cooked chips are the superior chips and at least in Australia are the same price as normal chips in supermarkets.

Yeah. They can be bad. But try cracklins some time. They make kettle chips look like cotton candy, lol.

Kettle chips are the best. Fucking weirdos dislike them. It is written.

They're okay, although I wouldn't say they're worth a premium over regular chips.

You also occasionally get a brand or batch where it's like eating shards of glass, and good luck hearing anything but your own crunching when you eat those.

But as long as they aren't too thick or excessively cooked, I'll eat me some kettle chips.
