Top 10 Worst Chips Ever
by Molly McCall

They're not talking soggy Doritos or Tostitos that have been left out too long. For the snack-serious editors at Taquitos.net, this is all about consistent out-of-bag performance. And there's no forgiving a chip that doesn't hold up. It doesn't matter if the salty, crunchy foodstuff hails from Brazil, Canada, England, or all of Asia, chips must smell tantalizing, taste delicious, and, preferably, hold a pleasing shape. In other words, octopus-flavored Tako Chips? Improve the odor. Monster Munch Pickled Onion? Step away from the footprint shape, please. And Sepasang Naga Squid Crackers? Baby, you're slapped with the honor of #1 Worst Chip Ever. Yeah, you're a squid cracker, but the fishy taste isn't cutting it with these snack pros.

Long-time readers of Picks may remember the mighty Taquitos.net, which we reviewed back in '01. Now, we raise our tins of Pringles to them in salute. Thanks for all these years of crispy, satisfying work, guys.
