re: My gf and I got into a fight over Lay's potato chips

Obviously no kids yet.

Kettle Cooked Jalapeno Lays will end this stupid fight. Might even get you laid.

Baked BBQ are the tits

Real story:
My college roommate was the son of a potato farmer in Aroostook county Maine. He came home one weekend furious because Frito Lay cut their pay hard b/c they could make baked lays out of cull potatos as the quality could be way lower b/c of the manufacturer. Could not compete with idaho and Canada and increasing trucking expenses- out of business.

So basically, if you eat baked lays, you hate potato farmers.

I find the regular have too much salt, but the baked have a weird stale flavor, and the texture is off, not crunchy or crispy enough. Trader Joe's Ode to the Classic Potato Chip is about as perfect on both fronts as you can ask for.

Wavy way better than both

Baked is better because it has more crunch.

Baked are more like Pringles than regular potato chips.

Pringles > any kind of Lay's

Pringles suck. They aren't nearly as good as Lay's Stax, which is a similar pressed potato flake product in a can.

I haven't tried Stax, but Pringles are far superior to baked lays
