PRETTY GOOD
sooty.m's Potato Chips / Crisps list
BRIEF: “Our story begins, as many a good Irish story does, with a spot of rain, a glimmer of sunshine and a few acres of the greenest countryside you've ever seen. For hundreds of years the patchwork fields and deep, fertile soil of our family farm have produced the finest potatoes you have ever tasted. And now, generations later, we have found a way to turn them into award winning chips. We are Keoghs... a real farming family that goes from 'crop to chíp! Grown and cooked with Love in Ireland. Our Truffle & Real Irish Butter Potato Chips are hand cooked in small batches using potatoes grown on our farm, the finest quality sunflower oil and seasoned with locally sourced ingredients. Our creamy Real Irish Butter is carefully churned on Glenilen Farm, in the lush hills of Drimoleague, Co. Cork.”
SOOT’S TAKE: I wish I could have reveled more in the charming rusticity of the provenance of these chips. Alas, they were a bit too sweet for my liking. In fact, they tasted more like honey butter chips than one would have expected a truffled chip to taste like.
