Happy National Potato Chip Day!

Mystic Chips Yup, that's right, today is National Potato Chip Day. There's a day for everything, you know, so it's really no surprise.

I used to have a favorite potato chip when I was a kid (Lay's regular chips), but now I find myself changing the brand and the style with every meal that I have (well, every meal that requires potato chips, that is, a sandwich or a burger). I had Utz Mystic Chips last night with my frozen White Castle hamburgers (shut up, I like them). Last week I had Wise with ridges with some Hot Pockets (shut up, I like them), and a few weeks ago I tried those new Pringles Minis.

Here's a history of the chip, and here's Slate's taste test of the gourmet brands.

Happy Pi(e) Day!

Today, March 14th, is Pi(e) day. Why pi(e)? 3-14 is the date that happens to correspond to the mathematical number pi. A slashfoodie (or a math geek) does not need to look beyond the fact that "pi" sounds just like "pie" to get a craving for a slice of crisp, sweet pie. The two terms are combined to make Pi(e) Day and to give everyone an excuse to have an extra slice of pie for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Of course, the creator of the Pi Apple Pie pictured here may have taken the concept to an extreme, but it is a delicious and amazing dessert all the same.
