\"\"<\/p>\n

Who called them \u201cLemonade Potato Chips\u201d and not \u201cPotADEo Chips?\u201d<\/p>\n

Utz. It was Utz. What kinda question was that? You see the picture. I assume your follow-up question is, \u201cWait, WHY did Utz make a lemonade flavored potato chip?\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, Nosy, I\u2019ll tell ya, Utz partnered with Alex\u2019s Lemonade Stand Foundation to support childhood cancer research. It\u2019s for a great cause, larger than all of us. Maybe stop asking so many questions, eh?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ok, it\u2019s getting a little awkward here between my imaginary friend and me, so I\u2019ll just move on.<\/p>\n

Lemonade-flavored chips. On the surface, that does seem strange, but I guess it hinges on your opinion of \u201csweet\u201d chips. I kinda liked those Lay\u2019s Tootie Frootie Oh Rootie or whatever chips<\/a>. I love lime tortilla chips<\/a>. I even kinda dug the Chicken and Waffles Lay\u2019s<\/a>, so a sweet element in a chip has worked for me. Do these?<\/p>\n

Yeah, I think they do. Utz made a serviceable lemonade-flavored potato chip. It all starts with the fact that Utz has a classic potato chip to start with.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These look and smell exactly like regular salted potato chips, with maybe a hint of citrus at the end if your schnoz is up to the task of sniffing it out. Lemon didn\u2019t pop my nostrils like I expected, which was encouraging, because I feared these would be overly artificial.<\/p>\n

While I like these overall, it\u2019s a bit of a mixed bag\u2026 pun intended, I guess. Some chips have a soft sweetness that really pairs well with the salty base chip. Others skip the sweetness entirely and go right to a borderline unpleasant sour blast that lingers a little too long. It\u2019s like one out of every ten chips got dusted with a little too much of that malic acid taste.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The chips themselves are very good, but as I said, I like Utz potato chips. These would be a huge win if each chip had an even coating of salt, sweet lemon, and just a pinch of citric sourness. As they are, I think they\u2019re pretty good. Eat as many chips in one bite as possible to balance the flavors.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not a \u201cfinish a bag of chips in one sitting\u201d guy because the grease gets to me, but I polished half the bag of these, only pausing a few times to grimace at the rogue sour chip.<\/p>\n

I like \u2018em. It\u2019s definitely a good summer chip. I imagine these will have their haters, but I encourage you to pick a bag up, especially with the good cause attached to them.<\/p>\n

Lemonade could be the new \u201chot\u201d trend of the season. It\u2019s a ubiquitous flavor on its own, but we\u2019ve already seen some weird collabs in the chip world, and I shockingly didn\u2019t detest Popeyes\u2019 Pickle Lemonade<\/a>. If these take off, you can probably expect more brands to milk lemonade for all its worth, and who knows, maybe fudge will be the next seasonal limited edition around the corner.<\/p>\n

\u2026I\u2019m sorry. Buy these. Not bad! Good cause!<\/p>\n
