Great Moments in Snacking (Episode 1)

I wanted a snack but couldn't think of anything good in the house. So I did what anyone would do. I opened the refrigerator and stared into its chilly, well-lit innards hoping for a revelation. And there it was! The plastic container holding the leftover homemade guacamole!

But wait. We had finished the bag of tortilla chips the other night. Oh, no! How could I eat guacamole without tortilla chips? So I did what anyone would do. I opened the pantry and stared at the shelf holding our stockpile of assorted chip products. And there it was! A bag of baked Scoops tortilla chips!

But wait. There was a red chip-clip on the bag holding it shut. Oh, no! It was an open bag! How long had it been open? What if the chips were stale?!

I grabbed the bag, placed it on the counter and squeezed open the chip clip, casting it aside. Cautiously, I unrolled the plastic bag and put my hand inside. I pulled out one chip, brought it to my lips and took the smallest of bites. It crunched! It wasn't stale! So I did what anyone would do. I overate guacamole and chips. And now I feel barfy.
