Welcome To Taste of States a place where we celebrate the weird and wonderful food of the United States of America. This can be everything from the snacks that are available for a limited time to the foods that are classic traditions at events such as Christmas and Thanksgiving! Each week we will explore the facts and the history surrounding a different food.

RUFFLES CHEESEBURGER CHIPS

Today we are going to look at a snack that combines two of America’s most popular food items – Cheeseburgers and Crisp. Ruffles are a crisp that are ridged, it is known for it’s unique flavours and is even the official chip of the NBA!

The brand decided to take on the unique flavour of the Cheeseburger for their crisp. The chip ingredients include cheeseburger seasoning, onion powder, cream cheddar cheese and swiss cheese just to name a few. Each 8oz bag of the product has 150 calories. Looking online it was a chip that was publicised that you could take it to parties and enjoy with friends.

Looking online, there are a lot of negative reviews about this particular chip with people slating the initial smell where you open the packet. The taste is apparently disappointing and does not taste like a cheeseburger.
