While you're frying up some eggs and bacon, we're cooking up something else: a way to celebrate today's food holiday and the most delicious finds on TV. Break out the salsa and heat up the queso! February 24 is National Tortilla Chip Day. Seemingly simple yet crushingly complicated, tortilla chips are a snacking staple. You can chow down straight from the bag while lounging at home, dip away while dining at a Mexican restaurant, or munch while mingling at a simple soiree. The Texas Monthly article “Why Are Tortilla Chips So Damn Good?" said it quite eloquently:
Crispy, crunchy, salty and simply put: perfect. What's on TV? “Guy’s Big Bite” – Food Network, 3 p.m. ET “Food Wars” – Travel Channel, 4 p.m. ET “10 Ways to Save 10 Grand” – DIY Network, 6:30 p.m. ET “Breakfast Special” – PBS, 9 p.m. ET |

I'm a freak for all chips du corn. Flavored or not – usually without dip. YUM!!!!
Now I want some chips and guac!! That avocado looks yummy, but not as good as the chip...
I'm not a huge fan of tortilla chips anyway, but that description has made me like them less, I think. Some things should not be explained.
