If you were like me as a kid on Halloween night after Trick or Treating you would sit down to a gluttonous feast from your sack of candy and you may or may not have stumbled onto the unmistakable taste of eating a bag of plain potato chips after a chocolate bar. Well its a taste I have never forgotten so to continue in the tradition of that unholy marriage of chocolate and potato chips I present to you Swoops + Pringles = SWINGLES!!!
Here they are, looking so innocent and unaware of their bizarre and twisted fate.
Since the Swoops are quite a bit thicker than the Pringles I decided to use 2 parts Pringle for every 1 part Swoop, I also decided to try 2 different versions: the Pringle wrapped Swoop and vice versa. I decided to first try the Pringle wrapped Swoop (right hand side).
Hmmm, it was alright. Need to cleanse the palette with a bit of Coke, now onto the Swoop wrapped Pringle.
The Pringle Wrapped Swoop was definitely the better of the two, but would it be improved with a little peanut butter?
No not really. and after eating just 3 of these concoctions I realized that just because Swoops are the same shape as pringles doesn't necessarily mean they should be put together, I also realize that just because something seemed like it was a good idea when I was 7 years old doesn't necessarily mean it's still a good idea when I'm 27.
There's this candy shop near my house and the lady makes these chocolate covered potato chips that rock!
ReplyDeletePeanut butter, the world's most perfect food.
ReplyDeleteAmen.
It's like my eyes have just opened for the first time! How could I have not seen the matching shapes. (I'm ashamed)
ReplyDeleteHi...gravitated here from Izzy...
ReplyDeleteall I can say is there is an Evil candy shop that I frequent that covers MANY a thing in chocolate...chips, pretzels, gummi bears...ok, that was gross...but many things,even popcorn...which by the way, is to die for... :)
Maybe the pringles weren't greasy enough?
