Salted chips Original - LantChips

We found another jewel in the north of Europe. 

The eldest son of the Arnegård-Hansen family had special needs. They dreamed of change and of a life centered around their family. And they created LantChips together, after coming across a small company that sold home-made potato crisps in North America. 

Small chips of authentic potato flavor in a well packaged bag full of history and good reasons. In the front of the bag Mr Alströmer is depicted, not as a Roman hero in laurels, but as the pioneer of the potato culture in Sweden. In the rear some explanations as to why these crisps crunch and taste so delicious only using sunflower oil, salt and a natural production process.

Pretty thick, partly unpeeled and small chips crunch and echo in our mouths, while we cannot avoid our hand wanting to reach the next perfectly cut and salted chip to go the same way as the previous. 

Congratulations!

Potato Chips with Salt - Tiger

Our first Danish review comes from Tiger. The first "Flying Tiger Copenhaguen" store opened in Munich and an avid Crisps&Critics follower approached us with a beautiful bag full of potato chips from the T-stores.

The packaging imitates a brown paper grocery bag and is fun-labelled with a sort of handwritten font type. When we open it we feel a good flavour and find medium sized chips with orange aureoles and a few dark spots. The chips crunch a lot, they are hard and thick. Cooked in abundant sunflower oil, we presume an overall good taste, the chips being generously salted. 

Produced in Sweden for the Danish company Zebra, the parent company of the Flying Tiger Copenhagen.

Potatischips saltade - Ikea

Who would have said that a Scandinavian furniture manufacturer can also sell such good snacks? The food market in every Ikea store is really worth a visit. For this review we bought Potatischips saltade, Ikea's salty potato chips.

These Ikea potatoes are small and medium sized, some brown skin edge left, cut flat and well baked in unspecified vegetable oil. The chips are thick, hard, with different toasting levels and colours. Once in our mouth the taste is quite good, abundantly salted and with a slight rancid flavour that does not take away the pleasure of crunching the chips one after the other. Fully recommendable as a reward after successfully mounting some of their furniture...
