We eat them all the time but have you ever wondered how potato chips are made? Kiersten and I wanted to find out and of course eat them hot right off the assembly line, so we went to Martin's Potato Chips! We saw the potato making process from start to finish and we got some fun facts during our tour, check them out.

* From potatoes to packaging - the whole chip making time takes only 15 minutes.

* Martin's makes 34,000 pounds of potato chips a day.

* Idaho potatoes, although good for baking, are not good for chipping. Martin's uses potatoes that are in-season along the East Coast. Right now, the spuds come from Virginia.

* The Martin's family owned a farm and started making chips as a side business in 1941. Now the York County company has more than 150 employees.

* The Martin's Kettle Cooked Potato Chip is the chip of choice on Air Force One. It's been flying with the Chief Commander for the past 15 years. The story is, while campaigning, former President Bill Clinton got a taste of the chip at the Farmer's Market. Since then, the chips have been served to global dignitaries at 30,000 feet in the air.

* On the tour, you get to taste a warm potato chip. To get the same "off-the-assembly-line" taste at home, pop the chips in the microwave for a few seconds. A quick zap will warm them right up.
