The packets should market it what oil they use

Time to stop using seed oils. Olive oil crisps sound great. [+]

Ah, well that would explain why I've never seen them.

Just a quick downer about olive oil. It's one of the healthiest products you can get, if you can get it. Cutting healthy olive oil with unhealthy seed oils is supposedly rampant in the industry. I pay a lot for the stuff I know wasn't cut, but a lot of oilive oil gets cut more than cocaine.

//Would butter crisps be nice? They apparently exist.//

Well, someone once told me they apparently exist, so this idea is kind of redundant because the proposed idea apparently already exists.

Know what would be fun? One bag of chips all of different colors indicating what kind of oil they were made with.

Look at the back and read about them while trying them out. "Hmm, green is avacado oil." (crunch crunch crunch)

I would absolutely buy that.

There's some olive extinction thing going on driving up prices and making it profitable to substitute other oils. Cutting the supply with inferior substances is a con as old as time.

Supposedly those schifoso seed oils are a small fraction of the price even when the olives are doing okay, so it really is like cutting coke or heroin.
