Memories Au Gratin

Many years ago, when I was in my early teens, there were these potato chips, called "O'Grady's."
They were extra-thick, and they came in a couple different flavors, but the one I remember best is "Au Gratin."
When you first opened the bag, this smell would be released in a pungent cloud around you-- like a potato chip bag fart-- replete with the scents of extremely aged cheddar and sour cream and who knows what else. It was enough to bring tears to your eyes.
And I mean that with all the love in my heart. My dad and I LOVED those chips. They may have stunk to high heaven (and all the heavens in between), but they were delicious. My mouth is watering just thinking about them.
They're no longer around these days, for some reason. I tried Googling them, to see what I could come up with. I couldn't find any pictures of the bag (though I remember it was kind of an aqua color), but I did find a blog entry from "Snooze Button Dreams", back in 2003, that tells a tale very similar to the situation in my own family. Click here to read it.
Instead of "Au Gratins", my dad referred to them as "Old Rottens". And it was a term of affection.
Ruffles makes a "Sour Cream and Cheddar" flavor which isn't bad, and is slightly reminiscent of the O'Grady's flavor, but not nearly as pungent-- and not nearly as thick and bold.
O'Grady's really were the best when it came to that kind of flavor.
Does anyone else remember these raunchy-smelling little gems?
I miss them.
