Well! I bet you all think I finally cracked and lost the will to type. I apologize for my long absence, apparently when you set your blog to auto publish while you’re away, it doesn’t always listen to you. Even the shank list is on the shank list.

This is a sad state of affairs.

But I’m back now! I took a four-day weekend and visited with a friend who hasn’t lived here in a few years. By the end of the weekend we were being detained by base police – and we gassed them. It was too much and I’ll get busy writing it all down for your reading pleasure. But I may leave out some details. Like the ones that could result in subsequent issues with the people in power.

This week we’re taste testing BBQ chips.

Taste test - bbq chips

 These are supposed to be the same brand as Lays, just packaged under a more UK accepted name. As you can see, I didn’t compare them to the US Lays bbq chips at all, it would have been an international slaughter, as you’ll find out below.

I don’t know what “Southern bbq” the UK is basing this name on, but it definitely wasn’t Southern US. Maybe they meant Southern London style bbq. They started off with this weird baked taste and then ended with a burnt tomato taste. I couldn’t figure them out at all. By the end of the bag, they were tasting pretty darn delicious so I guess you just have to power through the initial funky flavor. Or flavour, as they would say in the UK.

Your taste buds are also too traumatized to protest the additional abuse.
