But just as you’re getting ready to ignore this article because you think you already know all there is to know about eating potato chips, we’re here to tell you that you’ve been doing it wrong. But don’t worry, we’re here to school you.
So get ready for some magical tricks!
#1 Open the pack with your magic hands!
Most, if not all, packs of potato chips now have a spot that says “tear here”. But sometimes, the bags are stubborn and even tearing where it says “tear here” doesn’t work. No, don’t resort to using your teeth—there is a better way.
Take 2 coins, put one on the front and one on the back of the pack, and tear. The coins will act as a makeshift scissors, making it easier to tear the bag open neatly.
#2 Abracadabra! A magic bowl!
Want to reach the pieces of potato chips at the bottom of the pack without having to stick your whole hand into the pack and staining your watch and sleeves? Easy-peasy, turn the pack into a bowl!
To do that, grab both bottom corners of the pack and push up on the centre of the pack from the bottom. This will ‘roll’ the bottom of the pack, creating not only a steady base that allows the pack to stand upright, but also pushing the chips closer to opening for easy access.
#3 Enjoy every last crumb!
Other than being really good at satisfying the munchies, potato chips are also really good at breaking apart, leaving tiny pieces that can be super hard to get to. That’s just life.
The solution is to cut a small hole on one of the bottom corners, position the hole you’ve just cut over your mouth, and tilt the pack. Congratulations, you’ve cleaned out the whole pack.
#4 No shaking, no breaking!
If you prefer eating potato crisps out of a can, then you’re likely to find yourself constantly shaking the crisps out of the can, which will of course, increase the likelihood of them breaking.
What you want to do instead, is to fold a piece of paper in half, stick it into the can, and use the paper to slide the stack of crisps out without making a mess.
#5 Chill and keep everything crispy!
Nobody likes soft potato chips or crisps, but not everyone can finish an entire bag of these awesome snacks in one sitting either. To maintain its crunchiness, the best solution is to keep it in the fridge.
