How to keep potato chips fresh and other useful food tricks.

[the other mike]

If you like potato chips, but you're tired of them going stale 2 days after you open the bag no matter what you do, your problem is now solved. Store them in the freezer ! I roll the bag up , wrap a rubber band around, into a large zip-lock bag and into the freezer. I'm not sure how long they will keep, but for at least a couple weeks, your chips will taste just as crunchy as when you first opened the bag.

As for other kinds of chips, cereal, crackers, etc, I'm still learning.
Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks ?

Unfortunately, potato chips don't last long at my house 'cause I eat them up too fast.

You can also spread em out on a cookie sheet and put them in the oven on 200 until they're crisp again. Works with cereal, crackers, all of it

Thanks.! I should have known that, as many times as I've heated up taco shells.

I'm subscribed to him...he does a lot of outdoor and cast iron cooking. His Dutch oven recipes got me turned on to him.

Good sense of humor dude.
Thanks for the excellent contribution.

This doesn't work in the humid south.
To maximize the shelf life of opened potato chips, keep package tightly closed.
