unforunately u can't

from what i learned in my marketing class in high school...

it seems that old dutch tried to launch here, but couldn't with the big boys already well established in the market... they dropped their prices significantly to keep old dutch outta supermarkets so they were here for a short time but pulled out.. :(

i love old dutch chips too.. they rock! but ever since i moved to Toronto, i haven't had any -_-

i miss thunder crunch too :P

They are the only 1.79 for a large bag of chips

flavours they sell:
salt & pepper
bbq
buffalo wings
roast turkey
and a couple others...

I'm another ex-westerner who has looked for these for years. Every now and then I find them at a small convenience store, but never for long and never reliably.

I think they still have a small foothold in Toronto but not as much as they should.

Maybe someone wants to contact the company and ask for a list of local outlets...

Old Dutch was a real eye opener for my kids when we started going to the cabin in northwestern Ontario and getting them, now I have to bring them back whenever I travel out there!

Its a Safeway thing and they wont let them come out east!

Dear xxxxx,

Thank you for your letter and interest in sampling our product.

Due to the high cost and time-consuming process to ship our products outside our distribution area, Old Dutch has made the executive decision to stop this service. 

At the present, we are looking into better and cheaper ways for our national consumers to also enjoy our product. 

Again thank you for your interest in Old Dutch Foods.

Yours Truly,

Old Dutch Foods Ltd.

Ok I love those chips too and I found them.

First place (where I used to live):
A video store on Lakeshore right beside Mimico. I think it is called "1000 videos." I could be wrong on the name but the sign is all red text on a white background.

Second place (Just found this one three weeks ago)
Lakeshore and Erin Mills. I can't remember the store but it is east of Erin Mills in the same little strip mall as the Pizza Nova.

Not sure if any of these locations are good for you but those are the only ones I know about.

ps. I take a bag of chips with me to work almost everyday for lunch :)
Got my heatware on!

OK I suddenly had a craving for chips (induced no doubt) so I wandered up to the Hasty Market @ 3076 Dundas street west (1 block west of High Park Avenue) Low and behold they had at least 6 different flavours of the original Old Dutch chips and another 5 of the new rave line.

Go get em tiger!

well, bought old dutch at the hasty market and tried them for first time. tried some of the bbq and then sour cream & onion. bbq has too much seasoning. sour cream & onion are pretty good. i don't see much difference between old dutch and lays or humpty dumpty. maybe old dutch is a bit less greasy. don't think i'll go out of my way to get them again.

Yeah those Rave BBQ chips are very flavourful but not great. My favourites are the salt & pepper and Cheddar jalepeno. I'm going to try the regular Old Dutch brand next time I'm there.

I think these chips are slightly healthier than the Lays and Humpties according to my "Ice cream and chocolate is good for you diet" but they are still complex carb filled potato chips. Bah! pass me a Sleaman Clear

No old dutch? Here in Calgary, Old dutch has just as big of a market share as does Frito-Lays.

You guys are really missing out on the Dutch Crunch Mesquite BBQ chips, those are the best there is IMHO
