I used to love potato chips, but it seems anymore they just taste awful. I guess that's what healthy tastes like - But ever since they banned transfats, etc., yuck. Nothing tastes good anymore. Remember how good McDonalds fries used to be, until it was leaked that they cooked them in beef tallow. Which is probably better than a lot of the manufactured/processed oils, but not to keen for vegetarians and others who do not eat beef, I get that. But potato chips in particular lately are just awful. I loved Ruffles. The last bag I bought, I threw it out. Nasty. I bought some Club Cracker Crisps to have on hand for the Holidays. I'm going to have to get some more! I have found my chip replacement! Oh lord they are GOOOD! Just plain, I don't need anything with them. I'm going to need to pace myself.

thanks, iowgirl I will also look for them!!! I am often just happy to eat plain saltines . Call the Lays 800 number on the bag and complain about their chips. I did and they sent me a few very nice coupons!! I gave them all the info which is placed on the front of the bag toward the top. The info includes date processed and where the were made...

I never was a big potato chip person. Too salty and greasy tasting to me. I’ll give these a try.

Oh, I'll have to look for those. I am not a big chip eater, but I love Club crackers. I love Club crackers too. If these are as good as the crackers I'll be looking for them.

I don't remember McDonald's ever cooking with anything other than peanut oil but I knew it couldn't be that with all the allergies (I looked, it's now canola oil).
They haven't used beef tallow since 1990. I don't really remember what the fries used to taste like back then, they've always been shitty unless you're eating them immediately. I do like them if you're eating inside, with plenty of ketchup, but I pretty much never eat inside a McDonald's anymore.
I like the occasional Checker's fries but it's hard to control whether they are overcooked or not! When they're not, they're great.
I don't eat a lot of chips. If I eat Ruffles it's with French onion dip (but not just any brand, Aldi and Helluva are good ones).

Can you tell me how many carbs in a serving. I can't read to the top right to see if it says. TIA!

Thanks, I will give them a try. Potato chips aren’t wearing well with me these days, either. But I do like thin, crispy crackers sometimes. We love Cheez-it Grooves, the white cheddar flavor.
