Who doesn’t love the satisfying crunch of potato chips, made even better when you know they are made in Canada using Canadian potatoes? Choosing potato chips made in Canada supports local farmers, ensures fresher supply chains, and often means more transparent ingredient lists.

Miss Vickie’s put out three restaurant style potato chips. I took a liking to the Ask For Luigi! flavour. They left as soon as they appeared! Why were they pulled?
I refuse to believe they were not popular! Are they coming back?
