Cape Cod Potato Chips Review

Sometimes its ok to take work with you on vacation. Especially if it involves sharing a few bags of potato chips with your family.

Cape Cod potato chips contacted me to see if I would like to try out their new 40% less fat potato chip flavors and I agreed.

As far as taste goes, there is a slight difference when compared to a few of the more expensive brands. Most noticeable is that the original flavor were lightly salted. In my opinion they could use a bit more slat but there was enough salt to give them flavor. But, it wasn't the only thing I tasted when eating the chips. The Cape Cod brand falls perfectly in between brands that use too much salt and those that don't use enough.

I was also sent the Sweet Mesquite Barbeque flavor, which everyone agrees is their favorite! A perfect amount of flavor and crunch! The Sea salt and Vinegar chips have a unique taste the some of the family loved, others not so much. My father said it brought back memories of living on the east coast as a child.

I loved that all three flavors had the perfect amount of crunch associated with kettle cooked chips and they were not greasy.

All in all I would buy these chips again if I saw them on the shelves of my local store. Check out their website to lean about their other great flavors! http://www.capecodchips.com
