Actually it does. The edict came out of Miami last month. No more chips is fleetwide. Well, if you can believe the staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it's because chips require a ton of storage space, and that's in short supply on ships. - From a person who can take or leave chips.

They started having little bags of chips available when they first introduced Park Cafe over a decade ago, so I am sure they have long ago figured out how to store chips on the ships. If the rumor is actually true, it is likely just another victim of cost cutting. People have proven that they hoard the bags of chips, some even taking them home, so the cruise line has decided they don't want to fund peoples lunches at home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can provide chips the same as delis. No individual bags but place an amount on the serving plate. When they provided tortilla chips on Coco Cay at the Mexican station, they were not in individual bags. Plain and simple--economics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolSW Posted February 18, 2023 #41 Share Posted February 18, 2023 I pack my own little bags of chips and pretzels to have as snacks. It’s a sickness I know 🥹 lol. And for those salty snack lovers like me, who sometimes have the dreaded swollen ankles on a cruise (wonder why??? 😣), may I kindly direct you to THIS thread…. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2915941-cruise-ankles/page/3/#comment-64854783 🙄😳 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Anthem and I also saw some other editing required.😜 Edited February 18, 2023 by nelblu 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
