Oooooh, pimento cheese. That sharp cheddar, sweet-hot pimento flavor is like an edible memory of backyard barbecues. Potato chips were probably present in those memories, too – how awesome would it be if you could combine the two?
That’s clearly what the snack geniuses at Lillie’s Q in Chicago were thinking. Now you can get that same delicious flavor in crispy, kettle chip form. Not too heavy, oily or salty, you could even double down and dip these in actual pimento cheese. In fact, yes, we highly encourage just that.
Tip of the Tongue
Even if there’s debate whether it’s spelled pimento or pimiento, there’s no debate these chips are a game-changer. We don’t think it’s a coincidence that Lillie’s chips are crunchy without being messy – it means they’re perfect for layering into a sandwich like a gooey grilled cheese or creamy tuna fish salad.
