Weird! In high school, we used to take two salt & vinegar potato chips, sandwich an oreo cookie inbetween them, and then eat it. It sounds gross, and I suppose it kind of is, but the sweet & salty & briny actually kind of work.

um, because they make you stink?

I agree with JLR. Perhaps your body begins sweating to get rid of the salt as soon as you eat it, because you're brining yourself when you eat them?

I've never noticed any sweating going on from the chips -- probably because my sheer delight overshadows it.

Man I love those chips!

I ate a salt and vineger chip once. As soon as I chomped down on it I couldn't help but think that I was tasting something that could be very similar in taste to a certain female hygiene product that comes in a clear bottle with a special attachment. Know what I mean?

After that lovely thought entered my mind I never ate one of those chips again.

I only ate one once, too, and I thought my tongue was going to pickle. May as well have cut it off and stuck it in a glass jar and set it on a shelf to gather dust for the science exhibit.

I went to England for the first time in 1987, and ate them almost every day for a month. Came back to the States and went in to severe withdrawal from a lack of salt and vinegar "crisps". It was several years later before I was able to eat another one.

It's been awhile since I've eaten them, but I always enjoy them, besides - it brings back good memories.

Britain has some WEIRD chips (crisps) though.

Maybe I'll actually post about that.

It's not the chips... you ARE sweating. Oh, and I don't eat chips. I save my high-caloric intake for chocolate chip cookies!

What is it about salt & vinegar chips that makes me want to eat the entire bag in less than 10 minutes?

Figure that one out, will ya?

Ditto Heather B. Of course, I always thought the sweating was due to the fast & furious inhalation of the entire bag...
