When is a dinosaur not yours? When it’s Nachosaurus. Kidding, of course, this prehistoric chip-holder can totally be yours.
The Nachosaurus comes complete with a bowl to hold your favorite dips. What this set doesn’t come with, is the brontosaurus’s back scales, which you’ll have to supply with nacho chips. That is to say, chips that are totally yours.

They may appear creepy and keep you up at night with their incessant chirping, but crickets are loaded with protein.
Chirps are the perfect way to get all of that healthy stuff, without having to hunt down the little critters yourself. The chips are made from cricket flour — a nice way of saying that the crickets are blended into dust — with each serving containing as much protein as an egg white.
They’re currently available in Cheddar, BBQ, and Sea Salt. They also remain quiet at night, with the only sound being the crunch of your yummy bug chip.

As the name implies, the lone chip is made using the hottest pepper in the world, the Carolina Reaper. The chip comes packaged in its own triangle foil and a small coffin — which seems reassuring.
Paqui, the maker of the Reaper, is even trying to taunt would-be “spice-heads,” by offering the One Chip Challenge. Let us know if you try one.
