Ketchup Chips Part 2

Just a quick note since I came back from a trip home, where I crammed a bag of ketchup chips in my mouth as I stepped off the plane: Hostess chips are gone, bought out by Lay's. I cannot recommend Lay's chips except as a vehicle for dill pickle dip, and they are make a sad sort of ketchup chip. The chips are reddish brown, versus the bright red #3 of Old Dutch chips, which I always feel lends a more ketchupy flavour mentally. As well, they skimp on the flavour powder. Sweet, sweet flavour powder. Most importantly, however, Old Dutch chips taste deeply and honestly of potatoes, whereas Lay's chips are soft, crumbly and greasy. Any potato flavour has long since left the building when you pop open a bag of Lay's ketchup chips.
