Remember the old potato chip slogan, “Betcha can’t eat just one”? Well, it’s certainly true–and we couldn’t stop at just one potato chip recipe for National Potato Chip Day, either. This tasty snack has shared the spotlight with too many of our most beloved events, enhancing our enjoyment of the big game or that all important birthday. [photo via flickr]
Yes, the potato chip has served us well. It has dived into dips on command, known the sting of ghost chili salsa, has endured slumber parties, cookouts and camp-outs. It has given crunch to our sandwiches and been crushed into our salad, soup and chili. It has been a faithful and versatile snack for us, and now it is time to give back.
