If you think the coffee is ridiculous, get off this blog! (No wait, don’t!) It’s the kale chips that are crazy. The Krazy Kale Krunch is a delicious bag of kale chips (khips?). It also retails for just under $6/bag. SIX DOLLARS A BAG! That is KRAZY!
When I eat the kale chips, I think they are delicious. This lasts for the four chips that are actually intact. Then I start eating the crumbs. Midway through eating the crumbs, I start to feel that the crumbs look and smell like the fish food I used to feed my…you guessed it, fish. I also start to suspect that maybe the price is due to the special crunch that only ground up $100 bills can provide. But still, I love kale chips and SMS knows this and he spends ridiculous money at ridiculous grocery stores (I’m looking at you Whole Foods) to send me super sweet care packages.
But, I decided enough is enough! This decision occurred when I started looking on Amazon and saw I could buy myself 12 bags for $65. That is a nice dinner out! KRAZY!
So, I Googled kale chips recipes and have already made two batches. (BTW, does anyone remember when people were all up in arms about “Google” becoming a verb? I think that was 2005/6-ish and baby, that verb is here to stay!).

| First batch! |
My first batch was a simple coating of olive oil, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper. They were pretty delicious. I cannot vouch for the authenticity of my olive oil’s origins though, which make me sad ever since my olive oil innocence was ruined by this article.

| Second batch! |
The second batch aimed to emulate the cheezy coating on the commercial chips. I used this recipe and while I was missing the red pepper and had far too little nutritional yeast, I think the coating came out pretty well. I can’t wait to stock up on some cooking goods in San Diego and follow the recipe exactly. I think good things will come of it!
Then, this morning, there was a small parade of four fishing boats trawling about 30 feet away from the sea wall. Sagoy!
