As we get older, our childhood memories tend to fade. Recently I’ve been trying to remember details about a snack food from back in the day called Indian Corn Chips. Thanks to the internet we can locate details on nearly everything, except these Indian Corn Chips…

Your not nuts. I grew up in Illinois in the 60’s and can remember “Indian Corn Chips”. As I recall they came in a yellowish back and were shaped like an arrow head. They were thicker than the corn chips of today and about 2.5 inches long and an inch and a half wide.
Those are the ones Jerry! Thanks for making me feel a little less crazy. In what part of Illinois did you live?
We had them in southern Illinois. I loved the taste (they were so much better than Fritos!) and the transfer tattoos that came in the bag were really fun.
Where can u find the indian corn chip snacks? Would frito lay know? I live in Indianapolis, IN THanks
Sorry Amelia, but I haven’t seen Indian Corn Chips for many years. I wish they were still around.
I remember having those in suburban Detroit in the late 1960s. Like someone else said, they were shaped like an arrow head and tasted better than Fritos. They always had a little pack of tattoo transfers that you could stick on your arm or hand by licking the spot, putting the tattoo onto the wet spot, holding it down for a moment, and peeling it back. I think you were supposed to use water, but we used the lick method.
