Every nose dive prevention deserving its salt has a few bags of dusty chips pay heed somewhere behind the bar . That ’s because salty snacks and beer are a catch made in a heavenly world where no one is concerned about health . It should watch over that some brewery make their own salty snacks which match dead with their brewage .

St. Erik ’s breweryin Sweden has done just that . There ’s a catch , though . They trust their beers merit the finest accompaniment , and so they ’ve made some of the creation ’s fancy murphy chips . The chips were just released and sold out outright . That would n’t be surprising except the potato chip arrive with a $ 56 toll tag and the loge ( a bag is n’t dependable enough for these chips ) control only five chips .

The price tatter is n’t just because being expensive makes them seem fancy .

Each of the ingredients is in scarce provision . For the mean flake muncher , the redundant special constituent might not cancel out the dearth of chip in the package .

The Leksand onion is only grown in the Swedish town of Leksand . They ’re famed for , no matter the conditions , being imbed May 18 and harvested Aug. 10 . Always . Those potatoes ? They ’re grow on a " outrageous , stony gradient in a south - facing location , " because south - facing potatoes are obviously superior to those omnidirectional potatoes you buy at the market story , boor . ( There is a reasonsouth - present garden are utile . )

Billed as " the earth ’s most single chip , " St. Erik ’s made just 100 corner , which would be part of the cause it was so leisurely for them to immediately sell out . The brewery has n’t announced if there will be another discharge of the pricey scrap , but it would seem that the globe has the … ahem … appetency for another troll .
