Listen, we get it... chips — or crisps as they say in certain parts of the world — not to be confused with fries AKA frites, are not healthy. What with all that frying, right?
But if not from clogged arteries, what will you die of? Pollution will get to your lungs eventually, no matter whether you smoke or not.
So, even if only for some minutes every so often, let’s ditch that healthy over the top no joy life and enjoy a bowl - or bag - of greasy chips.
I normally don’t eat many chips, unless spicy vegetarian chicharron when I have the munchies, but I am willing to make an exception for this new variety.
Just like I would for a nice bag of Salt & Vinegar Kettle chips, or Wasabi chips btw, but those are entirely different stories.
Or maybe not?
Anyh0 — yeah, I always wanted to use that term once, at least to get it off the checklist of things done and I totally understand it’s horrendous, which was why I needed to get it done in the first place.
British high quality tabloid rag, The Daily Mirror, recently made it to my browser. As much to my surprise as yours but it was inevitable. No, it didn’t have to do with Manchester United or Jose Mourinho, I have the Republik of Mancunia for that. But because of crisps.
Aphrodisiacal crisps.
Crisps, or chips, which according to its maker Tyrrells have honey and chili which “will get pulses racing”. No word about blood pressure, no word either about ginger — no, not that ginger headed nerd but the spice FFS!. Yet, according to the marketing pitch, or press release, this good old-fashioned modern era English pleasure will be “tinkering with hormone levels”.
As a man, single again, I always worry when confronted with “tinkered hormones” but this time, my blood got racing just enough to tickle my senses.
Our new honey and chilli variety has an extra special place in our hearts as it is the first crisp with aphrodisiac properties that's ever been created

Now I have a sudden urge to hunt those on @Steemhunt but I’m not entirely convinced I could find a moderator who would be willing to face public opinion hostility afterwards. We did learn after BurgerGate 2018, you bet we did.
Full disclosure: I read about it on Merry Jane but they linked to the Daily Mirror as source. I would never open any Daily Mirror if I can avoid doing such.
