I will vote for whichever candidate bans "kettle chips"

These vile flakes of granite have no business associating in any way with potato chips. A decent society would have outlawed them upon creation and jailed their creator in perpetuity.

Anyone who claims to enjoy these cruel, knife-edged jokes is either a defeated victim or a willful conspirator.

I love the extra crunch and brutal mouth experience of munching on those. Get the salt and vinegar flavor and you double your pleasure.

Not sure which I am a defeated victim or a willful conspirator.

Peace

I can see that you are passionate about this issue and so I will ban the vile kettle chips in return for your vote and - I hope - passionate support (though I don't condone violence).

Look at the guy in the red hat! Wonderful hat -

You might like them, they are not super crunchy.

Another thing to consider is the kettle chips are a little lower in fat content.

Too greasy, too hard, too thick.

I don't ever buy them but the other disgusting chip, Pringles, just have the perfect shape and thinness to fit on your tongue. They don't taste that good bur are designed perfectly to be fun to eat. I might buy a can of those one day, soon.

Come at me! And hopefully convince me not to do it.
