The most famous
brand in snacks today is Piattos, and its most famous variant, Cheese. But what
I have with me right now is the 40-gram Roadhouse Barbecue variant.
Piattos is a
fabricated potato snack food. Not because it's fabricated, it doesn't mean that
it's not potato. It is still made out of potato, it's just that the potato is
turned into dough first, then sheeted, cut into hexagons, fried, and then
seasoned. URC does not grow hexagonal shaped potatoes. Although that sounds
like a good idea.
Piattos comes in
three sizes; 40g, 80g, and on rare occasions in the Philippies, 220g. And it
has these variants; Cheese, Roadhouse Barbecue, Sour Cream and Onion, Nacho
Pizza, Roast Beef, and soon a new one. I'm not telling what.
As far as this
Piattos that I'm currently snacking on right now, it's a has quite a hard
crunch to it. Unlike the thin crisp that it should have. The Roadhouse Barbecue
flavor is on the spicy side which it should be. If this is freshly made, I'm
pretty sure you cough a bit when you eat it. The chips are not evenly coated
with the flavoring. There are some chips that are super coated, some that are
partially coated. This is obvious because the flavoring is somewhat dark red.
This is not so obvious with the cheese flavor since the potato chips and the
flavoring are almost of the same shade.
Although Piattos is
not my favorite snack, It is still good and is still the more preferred snack
brand in the Philippines. Overall, I'm pretty sure the fans of this brand don't
mind the uneven coating of the chips.
