    I just opened up my bag of Ghost Pepper Potato Chips from Trader Joe’s and there’s a whole ass potato in the bag. I’m not kidding. An entire potato. I can’t even take the bag back cuz who the hell is gonna believe a full potato was in it. They’re just gonna say I put it in there.

        I’m so disappointed right now. I was looking forward to eating some ghost pepper chips and all I got was a couple of soggy chips and a potato. I opened up the bag, saw the potato, and thought to myself, “Ain’t no damn way there’s a potato in my bag of potato chips.” But it was.

        This is the perfect crime. Yea Trader Joe’s might take the bag back cuz they’re good ppl but absolutely no one at the store is going to believe the potato was in the bag. I damn sure wouldn’t if someone came into my store with an open bag of chips and a potato inside.

        If anyone else in this unfair, cruel world has ever opened up a bag of chips and found a potato inside, now is the time to come forward so I don’t feel so isolated and alone.

        Long story, Short. They filed a report about it and took down my number cuz they said they weren’t sure if a potato in my chips was a common thing or if this was a unique occurrence. So I’ll be waiting on that call when they hear back from Headquarters I guess.

        The two managers were very nice. They believed me without any accusations and told me to get a new bag free of charge. They were very cordial. If I ever worked at Trader Joe’s, I’d like to thing I’d enjoy them being my boss.

        I don’t know what they did with the potato. I hope it find a new home. A better home. One where it’ll one day become a real chippy boi. But that’s not my problem anymore. That’s pretty much it on Ghost Pepper Potatogate.pic.twitter.com/llUpHBfIbR

        Epilogue: I am not expecting a call from Trader Joe’s to follow up on this, but you never know. But, how would that conversation even go? Me: “Hello.” TJ: “Update on that potato. Yea, that’s just how we do it. Me: “Do what?” TJ: “Sometimes our 🥔 dont become chippy bois.”

        Me: “Please elaborate.” TJ: “The shredder missed the potato.” Me: “But the bag was soggy. It was 2/5 filled. And how do you miss a whole ass potato?” TJ: “Trade secret.” Me: “Ok, now you’re just fucking with me.”

        Seriously, the only real explanation for this, is an employee put a whole ass potato in the bag in retaliation OR their automated system messed up on a very large level and more potatoes are out there not become real chippy bois.

        So this explanation makes the most logical sense. I still would like to think there’s some frustrated worker out there putting raw potatoes in with the real chippy bois, but prolly not.https://twitter.com/stevesharief7/status/1078995519073148928?s=21 …
