Seems like a few years ago, only Utz chips in the East had a black pepper flavor. Now that shit's everywhere.

It's the cool ranch of ought-five.

Better'n ranch, at least.

Like... in the 90's every beer came out with a RED beer.. So & So's Red.

No nobody really does the red anymore, except for Red Dog. I think Schlitz's Red Bull has probably been pushed off the market by the Austrians.

i thought you meant actual black pepper, which seems to defy fashion i'd say.....

i sound like the geir of cooking right about now

No, there's actual black pepper on everything now. I bought some kind of fancy cheese at Beverages & More and it was covered in black pepper. The shit's blowing up, yo.

I thought white pepper was the hip one.

Look at all the salt & pepper chips now.

― andy --, Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:03 (twenty years ago)

White pepper is elegant, black pepper is hip.

It is "in". Which is a Good Thing. It is after all far superior to the old fashioned brown pepper which used to accompany the salt in an old skool British cruet set.

does Lay's = Walker's? I sense logo similarity.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:14 (twenty years ago)

I don't know if Lay's & Walkers are corporate sisters, but they're basically the same - the "standard" potato chip, available EVERYWHERE.

― andy --, Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:15 (twenty years ago)

lay's have ridges though right? i thought jay's were the standard potato chip.

No, RRRRUffles have RRRRRidges.

explain me peppers

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 21:13 (twenty years ago)

geir would never big up anything black.

Tim's Cascade chips had a limited edition run of Ketchup flavored chips .. which isn't really ketchup but more this weird salty red-dyed grenadine powder flavor that's really delicious when you're in an xtreeeem junk food mood. But no more. Back to Canada I go in order to get my ketchup chip fix.

I wish the companies that do those "extreeeeeme" sodas would just fucking take on All Dressed chips already and just remarket them as "XTREEEEEEEEEEEEEME" potato chips!

I almost bought something just because it had black pepper in it a few days ago and I can't even remember what it was.

― RS, Tuesday, 12 April 2005 21:49 (twenty years ago)

(I'm serious too.)

I tried the Dill Pickle Lays last week, they were just okay. They walked a little too close to the salt & vinegar variety.

― andy --, Tuesday, 12 April 2005 21:50 (twenty years ago)

Do they sell these anywhere but Aus?

Lime and black pepper chips!

I've actually been making a bunch of black pepper foods in the past month. I wasn't consciously trying to do it, it just worked out that way. It's a good spice, I'm all for it become fashionable for a bit.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 22:31 (twenty years ago)

You can pretty much any flavored chips you want if you go to the right places... I assume we're talking about major brand supermarket product, though?

I've seen Lime and Black Pepper before.

I think the only country that has truly its own flavor is Canada, and that's All Dressed.

― donut debonair (donut), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 22:33 (twenty years ago)

I put freshground pepper in everything I cook. I didnt realise it was suddenly fash.

Last night for eg i made jasmine rice and ate it with butter salt and pepper. Yum.

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 22:33 (twenty years ago)

this thread provokes the invention of the phrase "ready-peppered"
