SORRY ABOUT THE CHIPS AHOY! -------- by Steve Nadis
Some time ago, I made wisecracks about the latest trend in cookie fashion, Whole Wheat Chips Ahoy! I can't remember what I said though it was probably the usual cynical stuff you've come to expect from me. But today I broke down and actually tried them. And, the fact is, they're, um, um..., well, I'm not sure. I'm going to need more time to make a thorough assessment but they may, in fact, be pretty good and possibly better than the original. Not that the original, although still quite edible, didn't have a somewhat sickeningly-sweet, trashy taste. Anyway, I'm going to keep an open mind on the Whole Wheat Chips Ahoy! line, despite my early skepticism. It may be the way of the future for me, a real turning point, you might say. Next up, no doubt, will be flaxseed Doritos and soy potato chips. Junk food just ain't what it used to be.
