Salty Sunday: Chips

I've done a slew of Sweet Sunday posts so I thought I'd do a salty one!

Ah, chips. Best when they're steaming hot, with a hint of potato peel and a sprinkle of vinegar. When it's a cold winter's day and you duck into the warmth of a pub, they're the perfect before-dinner treat.

Chunky with some garlic mayo on the side... heaven.

Happy Sunday!

Salty Sunday: Sea-Salt and Balsamic Vinegar Crisps

In a slight departure from Sweet Sunday, today I shall be waxing poetic on the loveliness of salt. Yes, it's dangerous in large quantities, but a little bit sprinkled here and there surely can't be too bad, right?

One of my favourite ways of upping my salt intake is by eating crisps; in particular, Sea Salt and Balsamic Vinegar by Kettle Chips. In my corporate days I'd arrive at my home Tube station so hungry that my stomach was eating itself. Only by diverting it through the consumption of Kettle Chips did I manage to stop it from destruction. This became such a regular practice that the shop-assistant at the station picked up a packet of crisps as soon as he saw me coming. Fame at last!

Although these days my crisp consumption is declining, Sea Salt and Balsamic Vinegar is still the flavour I grab when feel the salty shakes coming on.

Yay for salt and its glorious... saltiness!
