Listen. Who know what are underrated? Sour-cream-and-onion chips.They're salty and tangy and covered in that creamy, oniony powder that makes your fingers smell kinda weird for the next three hours. They're about as umami as a snack can be, and entirely addictive.But in adulthood, we reach for them less and less. We fancy ourselves too sophisticated for them, or maybe just lose touch with their glory.

Hell yeah.
