I rank Zapps jalapeno chips above Kettle but below Deep River
I live about 20 minutes away from Deep River and have never had any of their snacks. I might go get some of their jalapeno chips now based on this post.

Deep River are indeed awesome, and do give Zapps a run for the money. The cheddar horseradish and rosemary olive oil are pretty tasty.

These are pretty damn hot for a chip. And tasty. Haven't had them in over 5 years though, so I'm just assuming they are still as good.

Went to a local stop and shop and price chopper as well as a cumberland farms and all town. Nobody carried Deep River chips. So I went to their website to see what that was all about. Apparently the douchebag who invented the snacks wants to be a high brow snack snob because he refuses to sell outside of higher end "gourmet" chains and local mom and pop shops. Guy names his snacks after the backwoods, redneck, tractor pullin, racist yeehaw of a town he lives in but refuses to sell in normal grocery stores.

I'm rustled.

These are the best Jalapeno chips I've ever had, but I have to order them to get them. I usually just get some jalapeno Krunchers.

Not sure if they sell them up here but that would explain me never seeing them.

One of the most consistent places to find them is Marhsalls/TJ Maxx. Isn't it ironic, don't ya think?

Sweet Baby Rays has a Carolina mustard-based flavor BBQ sauce now. It's great. I don't care much for the original flavor but the mustard one is pretty awesome.

I don't get why everyone raves about Sweet Baby Rays. I guess it's ok? It's more of a KC style sauce I suppose, as sweet as it is, but I thought it was just slightly above average.

That Shredded Parmesan in Your Fridge Might Actually Be Wood, Says FDA - Eater

In this week's edition of cheese-related atrocities: A Food and Drug Administration inspection has determined that you may have unknowingly been sprinkling wood shavings on your spaghetti and meatballs, according to Bloomberg News.

The culprit in this cheese faux pas was a Pennsylvania-based company called Castle Cheese Inc. The FDA determined that the company's "100 percent Parmesan cheese" included such fillers as wood pulp, cellulose, and cheddar ? but no actual Parmesan. The company's president is scheduled to plead guilty to criminal charges this month and could get a year in prison and a $100,000 fine.

Bloomberg also conducted its own tests of store-bought cheeses and found that cellulose levels in certain cheeses (including Wal-Mart's Great Value brand "100% Grated Parmesan Cheese") exceeded the percentage allowable by law. These fillers may save companies money, but at the cost of delivering an aptly-named and transparent product to consumers.

Well it's people that don't live in Texas/KC/Memphis.

It's not KC style. KC BBQ sauce is usually spicy.

Jack Daniel's brand "old no. 7" BBQ sauce is the best nationwide BBQ sauce. Haven't ever gotten into more specialty stuff... Definitely better than kc masterpiece, sweet baby ray's, kraft, etc.

Edit -- just looked at their website and they came out with a new bbw sauce... Jack Daniel's Master Blend. Must try.
