Does anyone know a way to find out who makes the salt and vinegar chips for Jimmy Johns? I think I have a new addiction.

From what I have read online about the chain it seems they make their own chips for the company. They are listed as a "private label" chip made by Jimmy John's.
Doesn't mean that someone doesn't make them along side their own but it would appear that the Champaign, IL company does it all on their own. It is an interesting chain started by a 19 year old back in 1983 their website says.

Well, I wish they would sell them in much larger bags! Or maybe not!

Jimmy John used to be my neighbor (but we aren't friends - that sounds harsh, I just don't know him personally.) College boy used to work there and has friends who still do. I'll see if I can find this out for you.

That would be great! They taste like a brand I could get in Michigan called Shearers. It is the only salt and vinegar chip I have liked till jimmy johns and they taste the same to me.
