While there, he developed a real love for Middleswarth potato chips (with good reason, say those of us who grew up eating them), buying one of the barrel-sized packages before he drove back to NYC after the summer was over. A few years before I worked there (ten years or so after he had), they did a fundraiser and the artistic director sent a plea for money to Mclachlan, along with a barrel of Middleswarth. He sent them a check for $500.

Cue the "damn good potato chips" jokes.

My old home town was in western PA, never heard of Middleswarth potato chips..My old fav chips and still is Snyders of Berlin..can't find them around here but my sis sends me a box full at Christmas time
Mclachlan was in the short lived tv show Believe about a young girl with super powers..was decent show early this year.
He was in one of my fav whacko movies, Blue Velvet 1986 along with my fav whacko actor Dennis Hopper and good cast..
