Chips à l'ancienne - Bouton d'Or



Crisps&Critics reviews French chips today. 

The "Chips à l'ancienne" from Bouton d'Or are potato chips of an average size. Peeled and cut in very thin slices, they undergo frying in sunflower oil (37%). Many chips have bubbles and a pale golden tone.

The flat and thin cut makes these chips feel fragile and light. To better appreciate its aroma and to compensate for the thinness, eat a handful of chips in one go: It's then when the chips provide a captivating crunch that feels louder than measured.

    1. Hi! Thanks for your comment!
      You can buy Bouton d'Or crisps in any of the stores listed in the Atlho's webpage (http://www.brets.fr/nos_valeurs/altho/) although, as far as we know, not all products are available in all their supermarkets worldwide.
      Alternatively, you can check in on-line supermarkets like www.ocado.com or www.premiummm.com and if you still cannot find your preferred crisps there, suggest to include Bouton d'Or crisps in their assortment!
