They fry them in lard, I know, can't be good for you but it is so good.


If it is actual lard, it’s better for you than any of the seed oils other chips are fried in.

ZAPP'S Sweet Creole Onion

Tried these for the first time the other day.

They're way too sweet for my liking. It didn't even feel like I was eating a potato chip anymore.

Kettle Brand Chips with Avocado Oil.
Trying not to eat crappy oil when possible.

I do love Takis though.

I like overly flavored chips...like when you happen to grab a Dorito that is solid orange.


I will probably get downvoted to hell but the most over the top seasoned chips I've seen in a long time are those Rap Snack Chips. I know some here wouldn't be caught dead buying them but it was too funny to pass up. Kinda surprised me.

I see someone mentioned the brand already. Again...pleasantly surprised.

TJ Maxx has a food aisle that people think is reject foods from other stores, but they're actually specialty items made just for TJ Maxx. You can find some crazy stuff there, including one-off chips. They have some by the registers too.

Was just going to comment Zapps Voodoo Heat, but saw you don't like Zapps.

If you're a fan of Sour Cream & Onion chips, I've recently found the baked Ritz SC&O chips to be loaded with flavor AND healthier for you, 40% less fat. I'm not big into eating healthier chips though, just stating that I found those to be quite delicious despite being the healthier ones.

Anybody tried the Gonzales Spicy Nacho tortilla chips?
Made in Gonzales La. it says.

I love them. $1.69 a bag is cheap and you can get them on sale for $1 at Carter’s sometimes.

Seen them at all the AG stores in BR, Denham.

Also not a fan of Zapps. I find them to be fairly greasy.

Have been getting into the "Kettle Cooked" style for a while now and find them crunchier and less greasy than most other type chips.

Even though not a big eater of chips, I do like them when I do eat them.

In the Kettle Cooked style from Lays, I like the Jalapeno, Salt & Vinegar and the BBQ styles more so than the regular plain chips.

Lately I’ve been digging the Tostitos bite size tortilla chips with the Fritos bean dip in the can.

Pretty much any flavor of Zapps is good by me, especially the voodoo heat. Most Kettle brand ones are solid too, especially the backyard bbq and Carolina bbq ones.

A friend I lived with in college would have his mom send him these from Texas and I loved stealing them

My favorite Zapp’s are the Crawtators. Goes perfectly with an ice cold Coca-Cola. My only complaint is some bags don’t have as much seasoning. They’re a little bit inconsistent.
