Ol' Grandad potato chips [Food/Vendor]
2013 Nov 14
I like the BBQ flavour ones. It has just the right amount of BBQ spices on them, not too greasy like other chips, and very crispy. I have tried many other BBQ chips, but these are the best I tasted and are almost additive for me.
I will try some other GT stores to see if they have them. The one I went to was a GT Express and perhaps they don't carry all the different types of brands like a bigger GT store. Thanks Bobby.

The General Hospital "convenience store" or whatever you call the place that sells the newspaper and lotto tickets has sold these for a couple years and I saw some 2 weeks ago.
I know they had the larger bags and possibly snack size ones too?
And maybe,but not entirely sure but sounds like something Rideau Bakery on bank st might carry.

So I went to get some today to see what all the hub-bub was about. FYI they are on the chip rack near the back of the tuck shop, not the one near the front.
The BBQ ones were good - certainly better than Lays or some of the more generic brands.
Not as good as the Old Butch Mesquite BBQ they also sell there, though :-)

Since this thread had me craving the subtle bbq flavour of Ol Grandad's, I swung into GT on my way home and snagged a bag. I just opened them and much to my surprise, they are now rippled! I'm generally more a fan of rippled chips, but this is the first time I've had Ol Grandad's that are rippled. I wonder when they changed...and how long since my last sampling...Either way, not much has changed. Definitely a unique, subtle bbq flavour. Nothing really jumps out, but nothing really lacking. Good chip, I say.

If you like "chips" also check out Natural Food pantry.
I know at the Billings Bridge store they have some pretty different chips- there is one brand made in England even.
-I forget the name of the brand,have not bought them lately.
Bulk Barn also has some different chips- I bought some cooked in olive oil a few weeks ago!
-if you go to Bulk Barn check their website, often there is a $3 off 10 coupon you can print :)

I recently bought some bags of Ol' Grandad potato chips at a curling club in Ottawa. They were really great and I am looking for some to purchase at a regular grocery store. Anybody have any idea where I can buy them? It was suggested that Giant Tiger sold them, but I was my local GT and they were not selling them.
