Better barbecue chips Cape Cod does make a superior potato chip and, in my mind, it is hard to beat the perfection of their plain kettle cooked. But I was won over by this addicting flavor: mesquite barbecue. Just the right combination of spicy tomato saltiness, finished with a whiff of smoke. But beware, if you eat one, you may not stop until the bag is gone.
