Sometimes it’s okay to eat whale tails

November 15, 2010 by Carolyn Kraft Leave a Comment

ACS Conference program and Whale Tail tortilla chips

This weekend I attended the American Cetacean Society’s 12th International Conference and had a blast learning more about whales and dolphins, meeting great people and hanging out with fellow whale and dolphin fanatics. My brain is still swimming with information (no pun intended), so I’m going to give it a little break before writing about some of the amazing cetacean science I learned from top experts and researchers.

Instead, I feel compelled to share a fabulous discovery I made at the ACS conference: Whale Tails tortilla chips. I’m telling you these are the best chips I’ve ever had! Plus, each chip is shaped like a whale’s tail. This is extra cool for dipping because it looks like a whale is diving into your guacamole.

But the best part is that the founders of Whale Tails tortilla chips donate a portion of their proceeds to ocean conservation organizations. So if you want to eat really good tortilla chips and help the ocean, then check out these chips.

And don’t worry, I’m not going to make a habit of plugging products, but in this case I just couldn’t resist.
