Well, you've got your caffeinated donuts and your caffeinated beer, but you're not sure those are two great tastes that taste great together. So, as an alternate accompaniment to your hi-test brewskie, how about some caffeinated potato chips?
Birmingham-based Golden Enterprises, maker of Golden Flake snacks, said Tuesday it is now shipping to retailers its newest treat: NRG Phoenix Fury Potato Chips, described as an "energy" chip.It took the company 18 months to develop the chips, which a company press release billed as "The New Breed of Energy, one crunch at a time!"
The chips include taurine, caffeine and B-vitamins familiar to drinkers of energy and sports-related beverages.
Golden Flake said it is the first snack company to make an energy chip.
The company described the chips as "hot" and not for kids or pregnant moms.
