Potatoes are delivered to the Husman Snack Foods manufacturing plant by truck. When a shipment arrives a sample is taken and tested before unloading. The potatoes are tested for defects, cooking quality, and size before we unload them. If the potatoes meet Husman's standards they're unloaded and put into large wooden crates. The first step in making potato chips is the destoner. The destoner cycles the potatoes through water to remove rocks and other external debris.

The potato chip, or Saratoga Chip as it was first called, was invented in 1853 by Chef George Crum at Moon Lake House, Saratoga Springs, New York. Chef Crum was trying to please a demanding guest who was badgering him that his home fried potatoes were not sliced thin enough. Crum decided to show him and the other guests. So he sliced the next batch with a razor -- and thus the potato chip was born.

These foods contain no carbohydrate, or so little that their GI can't be tested according to the standard methodology.

We have no secret recipes, and are always happy to pass along to students those that are their favorites—including the Baked Potato Soup recipe.

How do you take care of a native American Flute? There is very little maintenance to a Native American Flute. When finished playing, just suck air in backwards through the mouthpiece to remove the humid air & moisture.
