National potato chip day

Potato Chips are America’s #1 snack food. But, it’s not just a snack food. It’s the potato of choice for many lunchtime and dinner meals. Regular (or plain) potato chips are by far the most popular. Other popular flavors are barbecue, sour cream & onion, oil & vinegar, ranch, and more. Of course, you can have regular or Krinkle cut which is great for dips. And let’s not forget kettle-cooked potato chips, which are crisper chips.

Potato chips were first made by Chef George Crum in Saratoga Springs, NY on August 24, 1853. People have been in love with them ever since.
