Fox Family Potato Chips

Potatoes have been a long-standing tradition of the Fox Family since the 1800's and are still the foremost product of Northern Maine Farmers. 
In the late 1990's, Rhett Fox, creator of Fox Family Potato Chips, began experimenting with handmade Potato Chips using Maine Russet potatoes, first in his home kitchen and then in his store. He used his meat slicer to slice the potatoes just the way he liked them. He fried them by hand in a combination of canola and corn oil until they were the color he liked. 
He started out very small - unable to supply the demand, but Fox had a dream.  With encouragement from his father, he was determined to build a successful chip company. 
In 2013, Wayne and Gregg Garrison partnered with Rhett to form Trinity Chips, LLC.  Wayne and Gregg own Double G Farms and supply the potatoes for Fox Family Potato Chips.    
The demand for Fox Family Potato Chips continues to grow.  Customers rave that the chips have “real potato taste” unlike any other chip and are so addictive.  Fox Family Potato Chips are Tran’s fat free and have no artificial colors, ingredients or preservatives.
Fox Family Potato Chips are still made by hand with 100% Maine potatoes.
At the time of writing, they are the only chip made in the state of Maine.
Fox Family Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips 
The brown areas may have meant that the potatoes had not been full blanched - Certainly not blanched long enough, anyway. Although this it may have been by design, but whatever the reason it did seem to affect the taste slightly. There was a good backdrop of malt vinegar, but sadly they were a little light on the salt, which created an imbalance. There was something homecooked about the flavouring, though. We all know that chemicals are used to create chips, but these did taste like they were home fried slices of potato with a sprinkling of vinegar on.
