I went from basically age 15 to age 48 with the opinion "Who the **** would want to eat those"...I had so many other better chippy things to eat.

At age 57 I say "Where the **** have you been all my life?"






Can anyone relate?

Yes. There are foods I'll eat now that I wouldn't have eaten in my "preppy/yuppie years." LOL

I'm hard pressed to name some as I sit here; I've never been that fussy an eater. Most food I've "met," I've liked to some extent.

Too, I'm not a relativist, not with ideas and not with food. It's not that I can't say whether I like "this" item better than "that" one; it's that if I taste something, I like it endogenously or I don't. Whether I think it's better or worse than some other food doesn't play into whether I'll eat that food item/dish again. If/when I actually have occasion to choose, literally, between the two, sure, then which I like better matters. (I don't choose things I don't like.)

I really feel age here, plus the fact that I now manage about 1/4 the food intake that I did at my peak....I have gotten choosy about what I eat......when it comes to food or women or alcohol or drugs I just cant bare to slum it these days.

Red:
LOL I feel you there! LOL

I don't mind doing so, but neither am I going outta my to do so or not do so.

As for chips, well, I don't all that often want them. I'd sooner eat corn nuts or any number of salted raw fruit, veggies or seeds/nuts. Trail mix and grapes are more the "go to" snack items for me than are chips. That said, if I show up somewhere and Lays chips are what's offered, I'll much on them and be quite content to do so.

As a person who absolutely loves a good potato chip, I must say that there is no better snack. The ones I now prefer are also made by Lays - their Kettle Cooked 40% less fat Original ones. I am a person who is a purist - I do not like flavored chips. These are delicious and the less fat component gives you 100% full flavor but cuts down on the grease. Its a win win situation.
 
I rarely eat potato chips now, but I prefer thicker chips like Ruffles or Pringles over Lay's, the latter is too thin imo.
