Not your average chocolate chips.

In my efforts to act like a true gastronomist, I saw these chips at Whole Foods and decided to try them. See the ingredients? Dutch cocoa, cane sugar, sea salt (not to mention the key ingredient of stone ground white corn). 

Now, I don’t know about you, but I found the idea of chocolate tortilla chips incredibly fascinating. And so unique that they would have to taste good, you know? Not to mention that the company that makes them is called FoodShouldTasteGood. I mean, c’mon, how many more signs would one need that these chocolate chips would taste phenomenal? A bolt of lightning? A signed confession from Britney Spears admitting that her parenting skills suck?

Well, guess what? After trying these chips, being completely unimpressed (they taste like stale Tums tablets were added, not cocoa), and rediscovering them a month later, uneaten and dejected in my cupboard, I think it’s time this company changed their name to FoodShouldTasteGoodButOursDoesn’t.

The end.
