Wizdom Found, More Wanted

On past trips to Hong Kong, we became addicted to a particular brand (Wizdom) of wasabi-flavored potato chips. After checking several outlets of our previous source, we gave up looking for them this time around. Then today, looking through the window of a CRC Shop, there they were. We emptied their shelves of about 15 individual serving size bags, but still have room in the carry-on we packed for them.

(Back in 2002, I brought about 20 bags home, and mid-flight, I went to get one to nibble on, and the vinyl bag was bloated with the cumulative expansion of the individual packs due to a combination of lessened air pressure in the cabin, and good solid, airtight packaging that allows them to claim a 1-year shelf life for these chips.)

Now with 3 full days left in our trip, we've got a mission -- to find some more CRC Shops and to search for more Wizdom of the East.
