Would anyone like Tortilla Chips fried w/ Coconut Oil?
-
@happyhanneke oh cool send me the brands if you don’t mind. I have searched high and low online and in all the health food stores. I found one that shipped from SoCal but then they stopped shipping… this was all several months ago that I looked, so I missed it or new products came out since!

https://gillyloco.com/products/chips-cooked-in-coconut-oilI found this online but these are not the ones my store carries. I have to go there to actually know what the brands are.
But the easiest way for me is really to fry them myself in coconut oil. Definitely the cheapest way.
You can buy a good brand of tortilla's and do it yourself that way. Cut them in triangles first. -
@happyhanneke I’ve used gillyloco in the past, and they are decent but imo not worth the price. I got the largest bulk purchase they allow to get cheaper shipping and it was still like 10 dollars a bag. The avocado tortilla chips retail for 6 bucks for a bigger bag.
I look forward to what you find at your local store! If you don’t mind, can you share with me the store? I may just call them and ask them myself.
Around me, I have Natural Grocers, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Herb Mart. I think I’ve looked at Trader Joe’s but may have to take a closer look.I have done the frying storebought chips in coconut oil at home, and I just don’t have the situation at the moment to do it at scale for how much I enjoy tortilla chips lol. Also, I think the world should get a taste of how good they are when done right, without breaking the bank!

I will try to remember to go there. It's local store in Wenatchee WA. I don't even know what it's called just how to get there. But I live an hour away so I don't go often only if I need chicken feed. -
@happyhanneke Aw well thank you, Happy!
What I've found in some situations, is a local restaurant makes it the old fashioned way with coconut oil, and they sell to some local stores. I found a random restaurant in Colorado that way and called them up, but they wouldn't ship!

the resultes of the survey were a smashing success. I will now invest 1 tortillion dollars.

There’s a brand Hola Nola that is in stores where I live, they taste good.

@KillaJ I know, I tried to get them to ship to me, I was even gonna drive like 4 hours to the nearest store, then I learned that their placed burned down and now they use avocado oil... feels like a datgummed conspiracy against coconut oil tortilla chips rofl

I buy Gilly Loco corn tortilla chips cooked in coconut oil. At hole foodz. They are god damn amazing.
I heard Ray once say he ate coconut oil corn chips. But that he couldn’t find it any more and was bummed about it.
It’s always tricky to eat them because they are pretty high fat obviously. And you start throwing cheese and ground beef mango salsa on them bad boys and pretty soon your in heaven.

Ugh, that sucks. I haven’t bought them in a while, didn’t know they switched to avocado oil.
