Chip Champion!

So, I really like Harvest Cheddar Sun Chips. I can pretend like they are a healthy snack! They are, in theory, available from the vending machine downstairs in our building.

But they always get stuck! you get your chips about 50% of the time. However sometimes you get two bags, so it kind of evens out. And if your bag gets stuck sometimes you can find someone else around who wants a bag of chips too, and their purchase will liberate your own.

Well today a new thing happened. LeeAnne bought chips, and the, predictably, got stuck. So I bought chips. They pushed hers out, but *they* go stuck! LeeAnne had already scrounged up change for another bag of chips, so we though, what the hay - gimme my chips! But then.... both bags got stuck! It was clear that another purchase would only compound the problem - the tops of the bags were stuck and they were starting to pile up vertically.

So I did a thing that apparently no one had done yet. I borrowed LeeAnne's phone, and I called the company! We demanded resolution for our chip problem! the lady was nice (though she almost hacked up a lung), and I learned that apparently, although the program has been where it is for decades now, we are in 'the old engineering building'. And lo she did send out a minion, and lo, he did retrieve the chips! And lo! Miracle! He did rearrange the chips so that they wouldst not get stuck again!

Victory for the Chip Champion!

Victory, and chips.

The Garden Salsa Sun Chips are the best. I never buy anything else anymore.

My love affair with the harvest chedar one goes waaaay back. I don't know if I've tried the garden salsa ones. I only buy chips exceedingly rarely outside of school though, and we only have the one kind there though.

I'll give them a try though!
