@FLgardener.  Unfortunately, those most often attracted by "challenges" are often teenagers, usually boys, with poor judgment.  They're sold on self-serve displays in stores.

Those food names make me laugh, like "slap your momma brownies"  that sort of thing. I think I only heard of one other one, but can't think of it now.

@Mindy D.  Didn't we go through Ithe same thing with the same chips last year?  Maybe Hershey needs a big lawsuit to convince them this isn’t a good idea.


@Kachina624 I don't remember ever hearing about these chips before this.
