Teddy Blanks & The Cape Cod Potato Chips Mystery Potato
Teddy Blanks has a great write-up on Design Observer about his experience finding a whole potato in a bag of Cape Cod Potato Chips and his follow-up correspondence with the company who makes the chips.

Subject: Complaint About Bag of ChipsDear Cape Cod Chip Company:
I am attaching a picture of the bag of your usually enjoyable “Cape Cod Potato Chips” that I bought today. The objects sitting beside the bag were its full contents. You will notice that these include a few soggy chips and a full, shriveled potato. What you cannot see is that the potato has a strange, vaguely-chemical smell, and the few chips, in addition to being soggy, are not even salted. Ultimately, the whole package was (rather) inedible.
Will you kindly send me a replacement bag of your chips? Please make sure that if the bag you send has any small potatoes in it, they are salted and odorless. Although I would prefer just the chips.
Thank you,
Teddy Blanks
