Fitness Romance SagaTasting! Terra Bloody Mary Potato Chips
November 2nd, 2010 • 15 Comments | Leave a Comment »
I’ve never had a Bloody Mary drink, so how the hell am I qualified to judge these chips? Because Health-hater says they taste like a BM. My dear mother says they taste like a BM, too.
BM = Bloody Mary, not toilet fodder.
And while a real Bloody Mary has never met my food trap, I have experienced other scary-sounding things, like a bloody nose, wasp sting, paper cut and split ends – sometimes all on the same day. That’s tragedy.
They’re the same Terra brand that makes those potpourri exotic chips, so this BM is made from good quality stuff. But the taste is like ketchup and then “eww” and then “gag” and then “no”. It’s an emotionally negative experience that I paid damn near $5 to have. And I get extra-emotional when I waste my hard earned money.

REACTIONS FROM THE TASTE TEST CREW
Health-hater Husband: Reminds me of ketchup potato chips I used to like. Tomato-ish.
My Dear Mother: If you like ketchup, they’re good. Bloody Mary without the vodka.
Greed Kid #3: It tastes like salad. Salad is really good for you. (huh?)
Yum UP! to: Vodka…no, no. Some wine. Gimme wine, not vodka.
Yuck Down to: Toilet fodder.

Love your reviews!
I don’t like bloody mary’s, so I doubt I’d like the chips. Sorry you didn’t like them!

I almost choked on my Bloody Mary when I read that it was almost 5 bucks for 6 oz of chips? The real thing in a bar doesn’t cost much more then that [cheaper at brunch!] I mean, not that I would know. Or anything. ::stumbling away now::

stumbling again? Please don’t fall and smack your head. The fine print clearly states I will NOT be held responsible for concussions.

Hm, I don’t know about these. I usually love anything Terra makes, but maybe I’m just marketing-brainwashed. I haven’t tried them yet, but the packaging sure is pretty!
I’m a sucker for aesthetics…

Wow you’ve never had a bloody mary? Well theyre not that good. Unless you really like tomato juice. Drinking a bloody mary is like eating a meal. You don’t like vodka? When I drink, which I really don’t anymore, that’s my usual choice of liquor. Goes with everything, too.
