    Potato Chips Your preference

    My husband and I have debated for years on which chip deserves a spot in the pantry.
    He insists on Wavy chips I am an original thin and crispy type.
    We both agree kettle cooked are iffy at best, and only certain brands and flavors make the cut.
    Which do you prefer?

    Both of these brands are outstanding. Loaded with flavor and a great crunch.

    The Whole Shabang Potato Chips (Original Chips) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01LZUMXYY/

    I prefer kettle chips from Aldi as well usually salt and vinegar lately.

      Yup, ZAPP'S are the bomb.

    Lays kinda finally started doing it here, but I really liked the Walkers event crisps in the UK. Every year they roll out a few odd flavors and then the public votes and 1 stays around.

    But for my normal go to I like the sams club brand jalapeno kettle chips

    I used to like wavy lays but they taste like cardboard to me these days.

      Kettle cooked. Salt & Vinegar or Kettle cooked crinkle cut Salt & Pepper.


      or a plain ol fresh cooked tortilla chip (sorry - I guess this really isn’t a potato chip). But….

        +1 on tortilla chips. Salsas and dips are welcome but I can eat those plain all day.

        Fresh cooked tortilla chips are awesome! So easy, and many tortillas in every store to try.

        +1 on fresh tortilla chips. Not quite a tortilla chip, but there is a King of the Hill episode about eating a Frito chip fresh off the line.

      Lay's Wavy give you crinkled texture on a Lay's-thickness chip. Best of both worlds.

      Don't care for basic chip style, particularly if being used for dips.

      We like the crunchcrunchcrunch of the kettle-style chips. Ruffles Have Ridges and do stand up to dips fairly well.

      In no particular order of chip brands:

      KETTLE COOKED
      CAPE COD
      WAVY LAYS
      RUFFLES
      DORITO SCOOPS
      SNYDERS jalapeno ranch stix. These are pretty, pretty tasty.
      ON THE BORDER jalapeno ranch chips. Not as tasty as the Snyders pretzels, but still a nice alternative to the Dorito flavors

        Side note, since we're talking about chips.

        Doritos were "invented" at Disneyland.

          I remember doing potato chips a year or two ago. But here goes again....

          ZAPP'S - Spicy Cajun Crawtaters, Salt and Vinegar, and even (wait on it) No Salt (just chips in peanut oil with potassium)

          FRITOS - Just can't stop eating them

          JAY'S - When I can get 'em, grew up on them in Chitown.

          At the end of the day I don't think there's a bag of chips I don't like. And the problem is they're like crack cocaine, I can't stop eating them. <sigh>

            What I like is when the calories say like 950 grams PER serving and in tiny print it says 5 servings per bag …. And I just ate the whole enchilada !!!

            Never had crack cocaine, but if its anything like chips I'd best be avoiding that!

            +1 on Zapp's Spicy Cajun Crawtaters. Voodoo is good as well.

              I like wise potato chips but my wife is not a fan. Lays is probably 2nd but I have been known to really like Pringles too.

              However, my all time favorite "chip" is Frito's Corn Chips!

                +1 on Wise. Grew up on them and Snyder's of Berlin . . . . salty, crunchy, yummy goodness.

                YES to vinegar.

              I like Lays Kettle Cooked (or Winco store brand of the same - much cheaper but almost as good). I do not like Kettle Brand; they leave the defect chips in the mix - like that one on the far left in the photo!

                In my house the dark chips are sought after.
                They are considered the prize of the bag.

                Taste is in the mouth of the eater.

                I like "done" fries too!

              I can honestly say I haven’t eaten a chip I didn’t like. But if I had to choose it would be Fritos, followed by Cape Cod S&P or kettle cooked pepperocini flavor.
