Corropolese Tomato Pie-flavored chip flavor wins Herr's contest
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The CBS Philadelphia newsroom called it.
A tomato pie chip inspired by Corropolese Italian Bakery in Norristown won the annual Herr's Chips "Flavored by Philly" contest.
We held a taste test in our newsroom last month and the tomato pie chip was the overwhelming favorite. It was one of the top 3 contenders followed by Korean BBQ Wings flavor chips from Mike's BBQ and the Roast Pork Sandwich chips from John's Roast Pork.
All the votes for #FlavoredByPhilly: Local Eats are in and counted. ✔️
