I even found the cphi booth info for 2016 and his company doesn't exist. He picked this company name because it is very hard to Google. 




 
I was trying to be Sweet Potato chips in our dehydrator, but the first few batches weren't great. Not crunch enough. Did I use too much oil maybe?

Not, they just weren't thin enough.

First I bought the $20

(BAD) Progressive International HGT-11 Folding Mandoline Slicer but even the "Super Thin" was not thin enough.


So then I tried the 

(GREAT) Kyocera CSN-202-RD Adjustable Mandoline Slicer, Red and it was a night and day difference.


Notice the two slices on the left are MUCH thinner than the two on the right. About half as thick.

So just mix a tiny amount of olive oil throughout a bowl of thin sliced and put in the dehydrator for 24 hours (yep, takes a long time, so make a lot, and it is ok if they overlap a little since they will shrink) at 120 degrees or so. 

If you want, you can also try chopping up some red onions and vegan sour cream if you want to be adventurous and make Vegan Sour Cream and Onion chips.
