点评:I was in Massanutten for spring break with my 7-year-old son and a friend and her 4 young kids. We were looking for things to do outside of Massanutten and read about the Route 11 chip factory. As other reviews have stated, make sure to call ahead and check what days and times they're cooking the chips.
As a person who loves to see the behind-the-scenes stuff/processes, this was a very fun and informative site visit. Once you're in the store, you can stand at different windows to look into the areas where they have the machines and can see where they do the chip check, add seasoning, sort into bags, put bags into boxes to ship, etc. An employee also explains what's happening/what we're seeing.
Once we were done with looking at the machines, we asked for the chip sampler at the register. They give you this container with small chip bags of the different flavors they currently make. We had 9 bags/flavors to try. The kids each tried one flavor and then gave a rating out of 10. After we tried all the flavors, we asked each one which was their favorite and they all got bags of their favorites to take home.
It was definitely a fun and different type of experience. Would definitely recommend and do again!
翻译:我和我 7 岁的儿子、一个朋友以及她的 4 个孩子一起在 Massanutten 过春假。我们正在寻找 Massanutten 之外的活动,并阅读了有关 Route 11 芯片工厂的信息。正如其他评论所述,请务必提前打电话并检查他们烹饪薯条的日期和时间。
作为一个喜欢了解幕后内容/流程的人,这是一次非常有趣且信息丰富的现场访问。进入商店后,您可以站在不同的窗口查看他们拥有机器的区域,并可以看到他们在哪里进行芯片检查、添加调味料、分类到袋子中、将袋子放入盒子中运送等。一名员工还解释了正在发生的事情/我们所看到的情况。
当我们看完机器后,我们在收银台索要了芯片取样器。他们给你这个容器,里面装着他们目前制作的不同口味的小薯片袋。我们有 9 袋/口味可供尝试。孩子们每个人都尝试了一种口味,然后给出了满分 10 分的评分。在我们尝试了所有口味后,我们询问每个人最喜欢哪一种,然后他们都把自己最喜欢的一袋袋带回家。
这绝对是一次有趣且不同类型的体验。肯定会推荐并再做一次!
