What are you munching on these days? 🙂
Bubba (who is the expert on the matter) and I are departing from the usual chips that are on our stack. If you’ve been following this blog and what we stuff our mouth with, then you might have already read this, this, this, this and this and know the love Bubba has for his chips. I cannot even interrupt.
We still love our Kettle (we just had a bag of Kettle Buffalo Bleu when we watched Eat, Pray, Love movie premiere last Tuesday) and Doritos and Tostitos and Ruffles Cheddar Cheese and Cheetos Jalapeno but there’s a whole universe of chips/junk snack we have yet to explore.
#1 Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Pieces
Snyder’s Hanover Pretzel tops my favorite as of late. Snack on smooth pretzel pieces that are coated with sharp cheddar cheese flavor that’s not too overwhelming – just the right amount of saltiness and cheese flavor that can get quite addicting. I like the texture that feels packed in the mouth then crumbles then melts delightfully leaving you with wonderful cheese flavor.
#2 Winter Fruit Dried Mixed Berries (Blueberries, Cherries, Cranberries, and Golden Raisins)
Dee Boss gave this to me when I came back to the office. She knew I was looking for this and bought it for me when she saw it in S&R. When you’re trying to count your calories or lessen your snacking, this is a good alternative. The light sweetness of the dried fruits will dissipate your cravings and will satiate your hunger.
I think since you keep popping the dried berries in your mouth and chewing on them, your sub-conscious will think that you keep on feeding yourself. And it tastes good, fruitiness jumps from one type of berry to the next. I’m looking for the variant that has mixed berries and mixed nuts too.
#3 Red Rock Deli Deli-Style Potato Chips in Lime and Black Pepper
This reminded me of Tostitos Tortilla Chips with Hint of Lime but more peppery. Texture is also different since Tortilla has thicker surface while potato chips are almost paper-thin like and smoother. I’m still biased with my Tostitos Tortilla chips with Hint of Lime but this is a good variation.
#4 On the Border Creamy Monterey Jack Dip
You got to try the Creamy Monterey Jack. I love the creaminess and subdued cheese taste. This is what I would pair my Tostitos Tortilla Chips with.

So what’s the label of your bag? 😉

i love corn and tortilla chips so it would be doritos for me 🙂
however lately ive been munching on ruffles cheese flavor
@ Fran:
We love ruffles too!!! cheddar cheese!!! YUM! 🙂
What’s your Doritos flavor? Ours include Taco, Nacho Cheesier and Baked Nacho 🙂
i love snyder’s pretzels my fave is the cheddar but after trying the honey mustard and onion i’ve become a convert. the flavor is just a perfect combination of salty, sweet and tart.
for potato i love kettle chips and ruffles, for corn tostitos with a hint of lime too which is perfect with salsa.
but for healthier snacks i prefer nuts a fave is blue diamond’s calmond (slivers of almonds and dried anchovies aka dilis) this is really nice and the sahale snacks which are gourmet nut blends my favorite is valdosta – pecans with dried cranberries seasoned with black pepper and orange zest.
I’m hooked on Cheetos Crunchy Cheddar Jalapeno 😛
I love this post!!! 😀 I’m a junkfood addict! My faves are:
– Herr’s Cheese Puffs (Baked and way cheesier than Cheetos!)
– Ruffles Cheddar Cheese N’ Sour Cream 😀
– Red Rock Lime & Black Pepper
– Ruffles Plain
– Lay’s Mesquite Bbq (preferably the kettle cooked variant)
* Yes, do try Shella’s recommendation.. the Sahale Snacks Nut Blends (Healthy Options). The Valdosta is out of this world! Pleasantly peppery and sweet 😀 It’s so Addictive!!!
Love junk foods!
Doritos Nacho Cheese
Cheetos
Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream
good ol Pringles Sour Cream & Onion
V-Cut
my faves are,
Piknik Ketchup Fries,
Doritos Crispy Rounds- better than ordinary tortilla chips because it is much easier to dip in the bottles. I have not seen this anywhere except SM supermarkets, even looked at Hypermart but nada.
hi, where do u buy the red rock deli?
@ McKenzie:
SM and Rustan’s carry it.
Janey
@ Richard:
Hmm Doritos Crispy Rounds… I should try that. it’s smaller tortilla chips?
I also like Piknik Ketchup fries and their cheddar sour cream!!!! Mmmm! 😀
I wonder what else they will come up with.
Janey
@ Badut:
That makes the three of us. Bubba and I love junk foods!!! And we agree on your list haha even V-Cut was an old time favorite. For Pringles, I love the pizza flavor and the hot and spicy hee-hee. of course original too! 😉
Snacking and munching!
Janey
@ Celine:
Thanks Celine! Junkfood addict unite!!!
I haven’t tried Herr’s yet. Where can I buy?
Agree on Ruffles Cheddar Cheese and Lay’s Mestique BBQ.
I love anything peppery, where can I get Valdosta? 🙂
Janey
@ Madz:
I almost forgot to include that! We were addicted at one point with Cheetos Crunchy Cheddar Jalapeno!!!!
We can finish 3-4 bags in 1 month haha 🙂
Janey
@ Shella:
Wow, I should try the honey mustard and onion then. I love the honey mustard of Piknik too but Bubba is not a fan of sweet and tarty mustard.
Tostitos Hint of Lime is fool-proof best for homemade salsa. I also like this brand with a see-through packaging and kind of violet on its label -I forgot the name lang but their chips are pretty awesome with salsa too.
where do i get valdosta?
Want my hands on them,
Janey
@ Fran:
Ruffles Cheddar is a classic that would always have a place in our junkfood cheating heart 😀
On the Border Creamy Monterey Jack Dip — where can I buy this???
@ Girly Girl:
I bought it in the grocery, either Robinson’s or SM 🙂
Enjoy!
Chippy Chirpy,
Janey
I’m tipped heavily toward yours. And no matter, that’s what is so great about modernized democracy and the marketplace of thoughts on-line.
