As some of you may know, I am a total chipaholic! I especially love potato chips. I am always on the lookout for new and interesting flavors. My current favorite flavor is Dill Pickle. I don’t really see it very often but when I do I get super excited!!!
Last weekend I was on the hunt for some supplies for an art class I was teaching and stumbled upon a store in Westchester called Chef Central. I’ve passed it many times but never went in. Whoa!! This store was so much fun! A paradise for foodies! Have you ever been?
As I was going down one of the aisles, it hit me…
Deep River Spicy Dill Pickle Potato Chips!! I was so excited I decided to buy 2 bags. They were small so I didn’t feel too guilty.
So here’s what I thought:
Taste – The name says SPICY Dill Pickle and they definitely are. I normally LOVE spicy food and can handle it well. With these chips I felt like I needed something cool to drink and felt like the spice was taking over the flavor of the dill pickle. I found myself wanting more dill pickle and less spice. As far as salt goes they are just the right amount for me. I like salt though so keep that in mind.
Crunch – Very good in the crunch department!!
Thickness – To me it was the perfect thickness. Not too thin where it is falling apart and not too thick. it is definitely a good chip to hold up to a dip.
So my overall chip rating for Deep River NY Spicy Dill Pickle is…. 3 1/2!
What ultimately effected my decision was the spice.
Have you ever had these chips? What do you think of them?
I have to try these with sandwich. I think it would go great with a burger.
I’ve never tried them but they sound amazing! I like original Doritos, nacho and BBQ flavoring myself, though nothing beats a good od fashioned salty regular chip.
I like chips, and LOVE dill pickle chips…especially when they turn my lips pink 😉 I’ve never had spicy dill pickle chips, although I’ve tried spicy jalepeno chips. My favorite chips are cheddar cheese puffs from Golden Flake. Gotta love the crispiness of a good chip.
KD – Yes, accompanied by a burger sounds good. Also something cool to drink.
Heather – as for Doritos, I think my fave is Ranch but I really haven’t had them in ages.
Shermika – I have seen the jalepeno chips and have been tempted to buy them but haven’t yet. They may have to appear in a future Chip Chat!
If there are any chips you have been curious about just let me know!
I found these at Marshall’s in Rossmoor, CA. I was standing in the check out line, and they have all sorts of snacks. They caught my eye because I love anything “Dill Pickle”. I would give these a 5 out of 5 rating for sure. They are everything you want in a chip. They have spice, sour and slight sweetness. I honestly could not stop eating them and finished a 5 oz. bag in two sittings. I love spicy and I hate it when a product says “hot” or “spicy” and it is not. These are definitely spicy and delicious. I hope I can find them again.
Pamela – you sound like me. I recently got another brand of Dill Pickle chips with all intentions of photographing and blogging about it but I had no control! I ate it so quickly! YUM! Dill Pickle is just my favorite flavor chip! So addicting!
