Kids and Teens ages 8+ are welcome to attend. Attendees will be blindfolded and offered a variety of potato chips to eat. After eating each potato chip, they will write down what they think each chip flavor was (bonus points for guessing brand and flavor), and after, they will find out how accurate their guesses are! Signing up is encouraged but not required. Ages 8+
