As many of you know, I'm fond of the potato chip. Terry and Travis I think share this affliction as any open bag of chips in our house was fair game and never lasted the day. Unfortunately, Sweden is terrible for chips. Oh, they have them, but their selection is very limited. There are none of the major brands here and it seems they are limited to three main flavours: sour cream and onion, dill and bbq. Its outrageous, I demand some sort of nacho! However, they do occasionally have pringles (although still limited to those 3 flavours - actually only 2 - no bbq) but while shopping I did come across this gem of a flavour. Gourmet chips! As you can see from the picture, Thai Sweet Chili and Lemongrass flavour. Let me tell you, they were delicious. A little bit thicker than a regular pringle chip too, although they came in a much smaller can. I had to pay through the nose for them but I gotta say, they satisfied that potato chip urge like 3 crappy flavours never do.

So it's cold AND they don't have chips? That's idiotic.
I just read your post about the hereditary pronation. Thats great. Now that its spring here (yes.. flowers and all) I started running again. Now I will need to find a store that can sell me Swedish shoes to prevent it.
we had it made in canada. any kind of chip you could think of at reasonable prices. man, here its costs and arm and a leg for crappy chips that aren't even really chips.
