So You Drive a Truck .....

Is it a coincidence that Peggy's dinner date from season 1 had an Utz Chips truck route? Will we see more of him this season?

Sorry, GR Pruitt. Her date drove a truck for Wyse (or Wise) potato chips. She mentions on the date "...we have a potato chip account, Utz."

Was that Peggy's way of telling her date he was being a P-u-t-z?

Is there really a potato chip named Utz? What kind of a name is that?

Yes, there really is a Potato chip company named Utz. It was started by the Bill and Salie Utz in Pennsylvania. in 1921.

Today, you can find their potato chips and other snacks in a number of major food chains.

Doh! I HATE it when that happens! Wise. Utz. Each one has one syllable. To those of us from Tennessee, they all sound the same. I knew I had heard Utz before though. Thanks for the clarification.
