America put chocolate on the chips and I’m ready to move

America will fry anything, serve it in a bucket, and consider the matter settled. Their fast food cups are large enough to drown a medium-sized dog. So the news that Lay’s has released chocolate-covered potato chips—their Wavy variety, coated in milk chocolate—lands somewhere between "obviously" and "of course." Because America. Obviously.

The bags showed up in Target stores this week at around three dollars each, limited edition, which means the window is finite. Somewhere in America right now, people are panic-buying chocolate potato chips, and I respect every single one of them.

Salt and chocolate is a legitimate combination. Anyone who disagrees has simply never tried it with any seriousness. Bury me in a bag of these; I’ll be at peace.
