What makes it unfortunate is that they seem to be gone. Last time I saw them was on a road trip in a cruddy little gas station. They were probably quite old but I bought every bag I could afford. Rest In Peace Sweetos.

    but my fickle child mind had forgotten about them, and i have bought many ketchup potato chips in passing, never finding that elusive taste.
    but after watching this video, googling Herr's, and seeing that bag once more. i knew i found what i have been craving all these years.

    Thanks Ian for bringing awareness to the Great Potato Radiation Scare. I come from a farming family and we suffered through the Fruitsplosion Scare of '97. Farmers' heads started turning into fruits and getting all deliciously juicy in an early 90 CGI way. But the truth got buried hard and Big Snack Industry led people to believe it was just a commercial gimmick. To this day, I still can't eat a Fruit Gusher without pouring out a 40oz Capri Sun for all the lost souls.

      The queso ruffles from here taste very similar to the ones in Mexico but I’d give the ones from Mexico the edge cause the queso flavor tastes better in my opinion, but adding some tapatio makes both of them taste great

    Also can I just say how much I appreciate the amount of effort you put into your videos. A lot of other RUclipsrs feel like they're lazy and a lot of the "relatable" RUclipsrs are to lazy to even prepare for the video. For example they'll go "today we're making _ _ _." (Fill in the blank honestly) but then they'll go "The recipe said to use this but all I have in my pantry is this. So hopefully that works." and it's just like, why am I wasting my time? But I appreciate the amount of editing in your videos, and how you never have any dead air in your videos with awkward silence. Your videos feel more fulfilling, they quench my appetite lol. Thank you.

They recently got an assortment of interesting flavored Herr's cheese curls, including pimento cheese, jalapeno popper, cheese pizza and grilled cheese with tomato soup flavors. We bought one of each, and it turned into kind of a problem, as my wife got obsessed with the pimento cheese flavor, and the rest of us blew through the others as fast as we could buy them. We finally had to declare a Herr's cheese curl moratorium, lest we get out of control. Fortunately, they didn't last long at the store, so everything's OK, now.

    Time to add another video to the sleeping playlist (yes I listen to brutal foods to fall asleep, thank you Ian). It’s not because I find the videos boring, they’re just so calming and have helped lower my anxiety so often.

    Puffcorn is so good, it's like a low calorie version to puffed cheetos sold at tiny gas stations.

      Yesss! I was so happy seeing the puffcorn on here since grew up with it! My mother was actually the manager of a tiny gas station and she’d buy it for me all the time 💕

    Lol no joke I have the Ruffles Queso and Lays Layers in my house right now. I like them both. The Queso ones are one of my favorites because they taste like the Cheddar and Sour Cream but with a little bit of spiciness. They're great! A-. Solid B on the Layers.

    i consider myself a potato chip connoisseur ,
    so i appreciate these type of videos.
    my grandpa always kept shoestring potatoes in his home growing up, and i miss him so much. i might have to
    pick up a can now.

    Lmao, the second I saw this I got disappointed thinking there’s no way you’re gonna have reviewed and roasted those awful layer chips but you always come through. I saw how crazy expensive they were and had to try it, and pretty much the worst chip I’ve ever had (flavor wise at least)
    EDIT: The other flavor is even worse DO NOT TRY lol

    Man I love the queso chips. by the way, one of the ingredients for the chip is bleu cheese which might be what you are smelling.

    This is a very educational video, never seen any of these brands and flavors before.
    This whole channel is a great resource for understanding more about American food.

    Thanks for getting me set up with the butter puffcorn. Soooooo good! I always passed them up in the grocery store, but they were always there… waiting… lurking… and now im a convert to the cult of butter chips
