If you want something to use butter in you could sell  popcorn  and call it "bitcornica".

Bacon flavoured chips called baconica is also an option  Cheesy



haha, I think this is hilarious. I don't think popcorn would work too well, it would be too cheap, but too expensive to ship. The Bacon flavoured chips I'm sure would be a hit if I could figure out how to do it.

Hello!
Looks great guys, I'm still out of town, I'm off in the woods in Canada I think? No clue how I have any cell signal, but I'll be back and operating after another 50 lbs of lobster, and 3 or 4 days.

P.S great job of spelling Fried mushy.
it was an elaborate joke.

-CryptoCurry (Rajah, Sun, or Penzeys brand if you don't make your own)

-VGA Vindaloo (ask your local IndoPak store)

-FPGA FGBP (Cambodian pepper corn sourced from Bitmit)

-CyberChili Cook Off (Gebhardt or Penzeys, plus epazote)

-Megahash Mole (cocoa powder, ground pepita, cumin, etc)

-Gigahash Gumbo (gumbo file, onion, green pepper, celery, garlic, bay leaf, cayenne, parsley)
 
-Jalapeno Overclock (habanero, guajillo, jalapeno, naga ghost, arbol, etc)

Hello!

I'd imagined something more like an erlenmeyer flask, maybe with a flame underneath it.

Thats a good idea, I'll fill it with chips or potatoes  Smiley

But the taste is still bad. So we are deciding to stay away from butter, but thanks for the suggestion.

You could try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarified_butter, should at least survive the temperature.

As I said in the OP, the name is subject to change, it started with BuddyChips (after an inside joke) then ButterFried when we thought we could incorporate butter, because really, what doesn't taste better with butter? And for now, we will be changing it to BetterFried as we haven't found any practical use for butter yet.

Just sent .0001BTC via dailybitcoins.org  Grin
EDIT: The picture you posted of the most recent batch made it look like there was condensation in the bag, or is that just salt?

I appreciate the donation, thank you very much.

As for the picture, it is just some salt that fell off the chips, the picture is very large, so tiny details are very obvious. I found to eliminate condensations, after cooking I leave the chips out on drying racks with paper towels to absorb any extra oil, as well as letting them cool, this prevents any condensation from occurring in the bag, and keeps the chips from getting soggy. I had a slight problem with one batch that I hastily put into a bag so that I could keep it away from various people that were intent on devouring my entire batch, and the chips didn't crisp up very well.

Be careful with butter flavoring:

Movie Goers Beware: Chronic ‘Butter Flavoring’ Exposure Linked to Harmful Brain Process

 Lips sealed

Well, when we were thinking up how to cook the chips and create their unique taste, we had though of adding actual butter, not butter flavoring. This lead to three major problems. 1. They were horrible, you don't want butter and oil mixed, very bad. and 2. It would effect their shelf life negatively, and 3. Butter is very expensive, especially if we were to add butter to every single chip.
So, as of now, there actually is no butter or butter flavor added to this chips at all, which leads us to believe that we will be changing the name of our chips to BetterFried instead of ButterFried.

Thanks for the concern though.
