Light chips eyed to tilt taste in Michigan study
MSU researcher Jerry Cash, backed by the Michigan Potato Commission, seeks a method to consistently produce light chips by slicing and freezing potatoes after harvest to halt enzyme activity. Additives and pre frying before freezing are tested, with practical, cost saving potential for Michigan processors and reduced transport.

Nebraska potato chipping research boosts light chips
Horticulture professor Dr. Robert O’Keefe and University of Nebraska researchers push potato varieties to suit chipping needs. Weaver’s Potato Chips vice president Russ Ritzman notes light chips come from low sugar potatoes, while Nebraska’s shift from fresh-market to chip processing grows to 70 percent. Harvests split between summer and fall crops, irrigation boosts yields, and preferred chipping types must have high yield, few defects, low sugar, and high dry matter.

The columnist warns that a wife’s perspective won’t persuade a “mother hung” man and cites therapy as unlikely to help. The page also shares reader poems about chewing gum and Bedpost memories from different regions.
