34. Wait... the yellow chips are from the Less Ripe plantains?!

Oh, i knew they weren't green chips.

But then what do the yellow plantain chips look like? Darker yellow? Like ocher.

I've boiled green plantains waaay back for annoying stomach problem. Got rid of it, never returned.

Fried the yellow ones, but don't really like frying stuff so just a few times. I happily pay others to fry foods!

My favorite thing was when I was gifted a trip to Puerto Rico (near San Juan) I made sure I got plantain chips from a home source!

It's like the time [my second gifted trip decades later] visiting my aunt & uncle & cousins in a small Switzerland village we went to their friend's house [and I never had] for cheese fondue; a national dish!
