ISO blue potato chips

I was watching a Dr. Oz show the other day and he said that blue potato chips were a FAR better snack than regular chips.

Went to my huge supermarket today, looking for them, and all I could find were blue tortilla chips.

Anyone ever try blue potato chips? Did you have to get them at a specialty store?

Interesting.
Can't say I've seen these as yet Lee, but here's a link to some.

It's just potato chips, really. A lot of heirloom potatoes, SPECIFICALLY the South American ones(where Potatoes are from) are many colors, it's just that we have bred the color out of them to make them more desirable.

IIRC, they are just higher in antioxidants.

If your local store has a "Health Food" section, they may be there. Also, Terra Chips has a variety of Blue Russet, Pinks, and Sweet potato that make for a funky looking mix. they are pretty readily available.

I searched his site Lee.

If you can get the potatoes, maybe you can make them ?

i've gotten 'em before. the blend of chips ralph was speaking of, too. i just got 'em both @ either a regular 'iggle or a market district one. the blue ones, i think, were in the health food section years ago.
they were thicker & slightly sweeter than regular chips. the others i see in various sections. called 'em. yep, terra makes 'em, the ones they stock here. he says they're on the regular chip aisle.
my dietician used to say a chip is a chip. dunno. they're prettier than the same 'ol, same 'ol, anyhow. as ralph mentioned, it's antioxidants.

YES, Sass! that's the dip I saw him make, and the link to the chips was a good one, too! They are what I'm looking for!

Thank you!
