Would anyone like Tortilla Chips fried w/ Coconut Oil?

@LetTheRedeemed
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.
-
Thereās 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 couldnāt find it any more and was bummed about it.
Itās 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 havenāt bought them in a while, didnāt know they switched to avocado oil.
-
@KillaJ that was according to some brief googling I did. I didn't look too much deeper into that because they still don't sell them in my state
-
@dapose haha man don't do this too me. See, we need a nationwide coconut oil chip brand. Ima do it.
I also heard him say that he'd suggest them to overweight people to snack on throughout the day, and they'd lose weight. I don't see the high fat of coconut oil to be a problem for weight control, given how metabolic-promoting it is.
-
@LetTheRedeemed right! The gilly loco are pretty perfect with just a little cheese and salsa. I just go ape shit and make what my wife calls Macho Nacho night with ground beef heart and liver, tons of sweet salsas and melt raw milk cheddar cheese all over it! It is beyond delicious.
-
im not interested in buying your $15 bag of chips that are only available through direct mail purchase and not through the grocery store supply chain
-
@dapose dang bro ideas ideas.
I do appreciate gillylocco, If only they werenāt so expensive! I spent like 200 bucks on a whole case and ate them in like 2 weeks ā the second week I was rationing lol.
-
@sunsunsun my goal is to make them as cheap as possible while still paying the bills!
I do believe that the āorganicā and custom ingredient market has very inflated prices, and Iād like to provide something āfor the peopleā
-
@LetTheRedeemed some Mexican company can probably make them for peanuts . you just have to figure out importation to not inflate the costs.
-
@sunsunsun Smart man
-
@sunsunsun yeah, Iāve been looking around at white label manufacturers. Unfortunately, Iāve learned from other industries that you really need to travel and network in person, to build a relationship to know youāre getting the quality they say they are giving you. There is a whole lot of corruption in the cheap labor zones (Mexico to Honduras is filled with really good people of course). Also, metaphorically speaking, if I could give my neighbor a liveable wage in America, I prefer that.
Coconut oil is cheaper than avocado oil, and siete maize avocado oil chips I currently get are around 6 bucks for a 7.5oz bag. My dream would be to get down to seed oil prices, like 2.50 for an 11oz bag. I may not reach that with my other goals in mind, but itās the stars Iām shooting at (100% biodegradable packaging, properly paid laborers, organic/nongmo ingredients, royalties for a profile pic of Rayās bust under the ingredients list lol).
