\"Limited<\/p>\n

The Limited Time Only Tostitos Cantina Sopapilla Cinnamon & Sugar Tortilla Chips bag suggested I top ice cream with the chips. Since vanilla is THE neutral flavor, I went through the difficult task of finding vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

Now some of you might\u2019ve read that last line and thought I was being sarcastic because buying vanilla ice cream is super easy, but I was not.<\/p>\n

I spent an unusual amount of time in the ice cream aisle deciding what to pick up. I\u2019m pretty sure I looked like a shoplifter to the security guards watching me from the cameras as I walked up and down the aisle, interrogating myself about vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

Should I get regular vanilla, vanilla bean, French vanilla, or Madagascar vanilla? <\/p>\n

Should I get ice cream or gelato? <\/p>\n

Or should I be lame and get frozen dairy dessert or frozen yogurt? <\/p>\n

If I get the Dreyer\u2019s, do I get Slow-Churned or Grand? <\/p>\n

Should I buy a pint, quart, half-gallon, or that huge one gallon pail that I can reuse to make sand castles? <\/p>\n

Do I go with the organic Three Twins? <\/p>\n

Should I be cheap and get the store brand? <\/p>\n

Or should I support local companies? <\/p>\n

Do I go non-dairy? <\/p>\n

Should I settle for Cool Whip? <\/p>\n

But thank goodness I went through the effort and eerie feeling that someone was watching me to pick a vanilla ice cream because the Tostitos Sopapilla Tortilla Chips NEEDS ice cream or something to make them more snackable. <\/p>\n

Oh, by the way, I picked up H\u00e4agen-Dazs.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

The seasoning is inconsistent from chip to chip. Some have so much of it that they look like they were in a Tatooine sand storm. But most have a dusting that looks as if they were just standing outside on a calm Tatooine evening staring at a double sunset wanting something more in life.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

The heavily seasoned chips taste very similar to the Cheetos Sweetos Cinnamon Sugar Puffs, which I did enjoy. There’s even the slight butteriness those puffs have. As for the chips that have a light dusting, there\u2019s a hint of cinnamon flavor, but it\u2019s not bold enough to make me want to stuff my face with them.<\/p>\n

But did the ice cream I painstakingly picked out help make the chips more face stuffable?<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

Yes. The combo has a cereal and milk vibe to it, and it\u2019s now the only way I\u2019ll eat them. So thanks for the suggestion, Tostitos Cantina Sopapilla Cinnamon & Sugar Tortilla Chips bag. <\/p>\n

Basically, these sweet tortilla chips are like regular tortilla chips in that they taste fine by themselves, but they\u2019re really meant to be paired with something else \u2014 salsa for regular tortilla chips and ice cream for these. <\/p>\n

Oh, by the way, sopapilla is now my new favorite word to say. Sorry, bumfuzzle. You have been replaced!<\/p>\n

\nPros:<\/b> Reminds me of the Cheetos Sweetos Puffs. Goes great with vanilla ice cream, the combo has a cereal and milk vibe to it. Saying sopapilla.
\nCons:<\/b> Inconsistent amount of seasoning. Most chips don’t have a strong cinnamon flavor. Needs something else to make them more snackable. So many questions when it comes to picking up vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

*Because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, things are a bit pricier here. You’ll probably pay less than I did.<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
