Once You Pop, the Fun Don't Stop, Unless You Have A Heart Attack

In case that morning coffee doesn't do the trick or that Starbuck's tall caramel mocha latte with light whip cream doesn't keep you jolted during the work day, chew on this-- Engobi's caffeine-infused potato chips! These chips packaged as "Energy Go Bites" give you an energy boost claimed to be seventy percent more effective than a small energy drink. If the amount of caffeine does not scare you, the flavors sure will--lemon and cinnamon. Imagine how serving caffeine infused potato chips will tweak your Super Bowl, Tupperware, and/or birthday parties. You could never throw a boring party again! That being said, I think I will have to get some when I finally get up the energy to watch No Country for Old Men. What a genius idea! Marketers should hand out Engobi samples outside movie theaters where they already know the movie will be slow. I guarantee better reviews or at least more entertainment as the movie-goers start convulsing in their seats. When is that new Harry Potter movie coming out?

Since it is Black History month, did you know the potato chip was invented by African-American George Crum in 1853 when a customer disliked the restaurant's thick fries? As the restaurant's chef, Crum kept thinning the potatoes and frying until the disgruntled customer liked the product--the first batch of potato chips. That sounds more delish than caffeine-infused potato chips. I have a feeling George Crum would not like this new take on his yummy invention.

I don't even know what to say. Why are the flavors so off? I feel like that is what is going to make the product fail. But on the positive side, something for everybody right? I don't like coffee and for others who don't either, here is a good fix!
