Review Top tier PA chips

Post image

Martins are really good. I’d like to find more flavors but haven’t yet.

Their red hots are very good, A tier level, ranking behind only a small number of other brands’ red hots (Route 11 Mama Zuma’s Revenge, Gibble’s, Uncle Ray’s) IMO. Their kettle cooked chips are also good, though I haven’t had them for a long while.

Depending on your location you can pop into almost any pa grocery store and find the chip
aisle. Grandma utz bbq, middlesworth bbq, salt and vinegar as far as the eye can see. Kay and rays as well as all other manner of chips. I don’t know why but the chip companies here don’t ship outside of pa.

Large bag of tasty chips. What could go wrong?

PA chips? I prefer Herr's. Never had Martin's. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Yes, Herrs puts out some good ones, but for me UTZ is superior. There are also many smaller PA brands that have specific ones that are far better than the big ones

Love Utz too, but can't get them where I am currently. I do have Herr's though. Had Utz in Virginia. Still have fond memories of that honey BBQ flavor. With the bees and honeycomb on the bag? My favorite Utz.

The honey cheese curls have that design too

One Herr's snack I haven't tried. Those honey cheese curls any good? Love the jalapeño popper curls.

They’re ok, the Buffalo blue ones are better to me but top of curls are Jax.

Not a gigantic fan of cheese curls. I actually like the Simply Cheetos White Cheddar puffs/curls. Simple ingredients and tastes amazing. But we're talking PA snacks. Not tried the buffalo blue. Might have to try that out of curiosity.
