Kudos to Slate for unearthing a heretofore undiscovered type of snob

Obligatory:
“Conversations in the Cooper books have a curious sound in our modern ears. To believe that such talk really ever came out of people's mouths would be to believe that there was a time when time was of no value to a person who thought he had something to say; when it was the custom to spread a two-minute remark out to ten; when a man's mouth was a rolling-mill, and busied itself all day long in turning four-foot pigs of thought into thirty-foot bars of conversational railroad iron by attenuation.”

@jalefkowit they’re better than the average US potato chip, but the flavors seem to lean salt / vinegar / just acidic in general, so probably why it’s not for me. I love the crisps in the UK / Aus / NZ. Just potato and some savory flavor. Over here I live on Asian potato chips which have more agreeable flavors for me. Walkers sometimes if I can find them

@jalefkowit I generally don’t like to think about the BCR era. (Before Cool Ranch)

@jalefkowit I am this kind of snob. I thought I was a well-traveled snob with all of the weird flavors I have experienced in Asia, but a recent trip to Spain opened and entirely new chip window.
