Boomer in the Morning: Champion-Chip Bracket 2020

[The Yen Man]

Sorry, but All Dressed is the Edmonton Oilers of chips. All hype, and NO GOOD.

[transplant99]

All Dressed beat Ketchup

Abomination.

[TheIronMaiden]

Salt and Vinegar is such a redundant name. What chip doesnt have salt on them? They don't call them Salt, Sour Cream and Onion.

[Erick Estrada]

I can't believe Salt & Vinegar is top 2. Terrible flavour IMO as you can only eat a few before you get peeling or sores in your mouth. I like a chip I can pig out on.

[agulati]

Speaking of chips I discovered Mango Habanero when I was in the states some time ago. It is by a brand called “Hawaiian” and oh man, I love the flavor profile.

[wretched34]

When I think of all dressed chips, all I picture is the drunkest guy at the bbq eating the crumbs out of all the chip bowls, giggling to himself while mumbling "It all ends up in the same place", while chugging back a Colt 45, because "It all gets you drunk".

Next round should be a good one, some tough teams!

Everything is wrong in the world with these results. What is going on

Yeah I mentioned this possibility earlier. Just terrible bracket structure.

Yeah, All Dressed are weird. They found some ingredient that keeps me coming back for more until I've polished off the whole bag, yet I've gotten very little enjoyment out of them.

Contrast that with MV sea salt and vinegar where I savour the flavour in every individual chip.

U.S. population: Which flavors of potato chips do you eat most often?

I do notice that when the Pringles go on sale, sour cream and onion sells out fast.

[kermitology]

Go BBQ!

They need to do an alternative chip bracket. Pringles, Sun Chips, Hickory Sticks, etc.

[TheIronMaiden]

This bracket is giving me an understanding of how our democracy spits out nothing but loser candidates. There are so many good chips in the world, and these are the four that are left over?!

[CliffFletcher]

BBQ chips are gross. They taste like liquid smoke and bacon bits.

And all dressed are gross because they have BBQ flavour mixed in.

This chip bracket is going the way of my playoff hockey pools - it's all over by the end of the second round.

Ive tried the Octopus chips in Korea, Hot Chili Squid in Thailand and Seaweed in Japan...but holy crap, these are all better than Englands choices.Fark! Marmite chips...jeezuz H Krist

[Erick Estrada]

All the beef and gravy chips I've tried always taste like they are seasoned with nothing but beef bouillon powder.

Caught it this morning. It was hilarious. Guy analyzed it like it was a serious sporting tournament. Kudos to him for having fun with this. I'm looking forward to the soda bracket.
