Even a true Foodie (which I am) has some guilty pleasures…like Velveeta…Pringles… In fact, I think it is a requisite.
Typical 4th fare: Hot dogs, burgers, bbq of any kind, and chips and DIP! Lawson’s Chip Dip is the BOMB! This isn’t even a guilty pleasure – it is a simple great food…condiment…whatever.
I’ve been lovin Lawson’s Dip, well since there used to be a Lawson’s, which originated in Cuyahoga Falls, OH (near Akron). I was born in Akron and lived there until I was 12. Alas, can’t find it in Cleveland anymore.
But, I am currently enjoying it here in a suburb of Columbus, OH, at my brother’s. They have it here in this little Podunkville of a (very cute mind you) town of West Jefferson. They only have this convenient store – no other grocery.
I don’t even eat chips except for when I’m visiting them. I told my brother that here’s why I visit – Molly, Jilly and the dip. Well, and TV and the cable/DVR that I also don’t have at home and that remote..but that’s a whole other story.
On my last birthday, Michael (my brother) gave me 2 Pints of the stuff! I left it there though… otherwise I would have been eating chips for a month – and that just wouldn’t do!
For those of you who have never had this delight, I feel for you. You have no idea what you are missing. I had a friend from Toronto (years ago) ask me if I had ever heard of LCD and could I send her some! She had stumbled on it somehow in in travels to the US. Small world.
Oh, and by the way, I’ve been known to enjoy a Pringle or 2 now and then – haven’t you?
Happy 4th of July America!
