potato chips with or without a sandwich?

I am always getting slack from my partner that I eat potato chips with my sandwiches. He says "that is so American". So I thought I would take a survey and see how many people really enjoy eating there Paprika Chips from Migros, Pringles, Zweifel etc.. with there sandwich of choice

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

I voted with, there's something I find very satisfying about a sandwich, a bag of CRISPS and a piece of fruit as a meal.

Although, this lunchtime was 2 sandwiches and a twix, but that's beside the point....

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

Cheese and crisp sandwiches are good. Better are peanut butter and Wotsits (or cheese puffs, as our Septic cousins might call them).

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

Oh, hold on - do you mean with the sandwich or in the sandwich?
Makes a lot of difference.

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

Ahh, for soft, sliced white bread. You read in POW books how many newly-released POWs mention this as one of the first things they go for on release.
I sympathise.

Excellent point Boris, the delights of a crisp sandwich have eluded me for too long...to the London Shop, for Walkers and Warburtons...

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

For soft white bread I buy American toast( it is larger and softer than the others) from Migros. I cannot live without it or my Jif peanut butter I import from U.S.

i know there's a big peanut better thread on here from some months back, but Co-op do a nice US peanut butter. The 'American toast' is still quite dry and hard compared to the white sliced loaf I dream about each evening.

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

Sorry. Didn't mean to get your hopes up. They are no where to be found in Schweiz. In fact, I don't know if I've ever seen that particular flavor in Europe anywhere. Doritos, sure. Cool Ranch. Not so much.

I was just fantasizing.

Re: potato chips with or without a sandwich?

I will be bringing those back when I go to Atlanta in January, now I am craving them and Sun Chips French onion. I will share Chem Goddess. There is an American store in Geneva quite expensive but if you really want something they usually have it. It is on a street between the rail station after Burger King to the left.
