Luke recently visited relatives in San Diego. While he was there he attended a Superbowl party that was filled with different snacks then what would have been served at a party here in the midwest. The snack that Luke remembers most fondly are the Whale Tails chips used for dipping. He told me the chips had a unique shape, a great taste, and were the right size and thickness for dipping! When he returned to Minnesota he looked for the chips but was unable to find them anywhere so he told me about them. Knowing that I’m constantly surfing for tasty online gourmet foods, he asked for my help in locating these snacks. He couldn’t remember the exact name but luckily there seems to be only 1 chip shaped like a whale’s tail so the website was pretty easy to find. After reading about the chips and the company, I had to try some for myself. When they arrived my husband and I sat down with a bag of chips and a bowl of fresh guacamole. The chips were amazing - crunchy, thick (able to withstand a mega-dip), and had a unique salty taste. I liked them with the dip, but preferred to eat them plain and savor the natural sea salt taste. Whale Tails Chips are coated in Hawaiian Sea Salt with a touch of lime, and are made with all natural and organic ingredients. We ordered a case of 6 - 9 oz bags for $20.94, and were even able to save a couple bags for Luke since he was the reason we found them in the first place!

I also found this company’s website very interesting. The founders of the company are two lifelong friends who were on a surfing adventure when nothing less than divine inspiration hit them! For the past 20 years, this duo has been working on their dream of making a delicious snack food and using the profits to preserve the whale population.
