Utz to You



    It was sometime around 1921 and Bill and Salie Utz wanted to make a fresher potato chip. Almost a century later, having done that and more a long time ago, they have added some unexpected additions. Among some 19 new items are, on the sweet side,  old-fashioned, chewy Grandma Utz Cookies,  packed 2 to a bag for convenience, in chocolate chip, peanut butter and oatmeal raisin. On the savory side are the  new Utz Nutz line that feautures bags of Salted Peanuts, Hot Peanuts, and Cashews.

They have also added some spice with  Utz Mild and Medium Chunky Salsas and single serve Salsa dip cups. The single serve are a nice idea when a smaller portion will do.

Another  mainstay, pretzels, have not been neglected. Now there are new takes on the famous Utz  pretzels—portable 10 oz bags of Specials, Dark Specials, Sourdough Hards and Extra Thins, as well as 15-ounce family-sized bags of  Honey Wheat, Butter, and Pumpernickel Select pretzels.
