There was a hint of faux chicken in the mix and I could taste non S&P "seasoning" from the wing "batter". They actually did taste quite like S&P wings (I said I wouldn't order them, not that I haven't had them before). I'd prefer if these chips were Buffalo wing, but they're a decent wing chip on their own merit. I proc
