Kettle Chips or Oven Baked Chips

The only chips I ever eat are tortilla chips, and only in service of a dip.

I can't honestly remember the last time I ate either.

Anyone who is trying to eat "healthy" chips is missing the point.

There's nothing healthy about either sadly.

@geirr: There are flavors inherent to certain junk foods I don't want to give up.

Kettle chips are real good. I don't really eat chips at all any more though, or at least very infrequently. Also I can't imagine kettle chips are actually much healthier than regular ones.

Tim's Cascade Kettle Chips are AMAZING.

Kettle and Oven Baked are alright, but come one. It's like going to McDonalds for a salad. You're not fooling anyone.

Best crisps are tayto.

I love Kettle brand Kettle Chips.

What if I told you I enjoyed the Kettle Brand Oven Baked Chips?

I like them when they fit into my diet. Also, 420mg of Potassium (12% Daily recommended) to 160mg of Sodium (6%...) is quite a ratio there, so there's that. Low fat. With the low fat and saturated fat, all I really have to worry about with these guys is the carbs, and it's only 20g per bag.

My favorite chips are not made any more "Cape Cod Dark Russet" potato chips. They were as close as you could get to a entire bag of burned chips

I love them both.

@jesus_phish: Is there a difference between what we americans call chips and crisps?

@flashflood_29: So is it like a hybrid? I looked at their site and they don't have a page specifically for their kettle chips, I assume they all have kettle chip qualities?

I used to eat Tim's, they are very good, but got heavy it seems on the Jalapeno seasoning. Maybe it was just that batch. I ocasionally also eat Miss Vickies with a bought sandwich.

These days it is Cape Cod's reduced fat, Kettle brand curry, and Dirty's sea salt. I only eat them with lunch.

Miss Vickie's Salt and Vinegar or the Jalapeno for me. I love the crunch but damn it makes it hard to hear anything when you eat them.

Pom-Bear or nothing.

can't stand baked chips.

Kettle for lyfe

Team Miss Vickie's. I only eat these.

I don't care so long as I've got sea salt & vinegar or something spicy.

Oh I hear you! They're both delicious in their own ways and I couldn't separate myself from either.

Kettle cooked, 100%.

I don't know if you non-New Englanders have these, but they are the best.

I really like Doritos

@katpottz: Yeah, they're standard chips are fried batch by batch, like other kettle cooked potato chips. They don't put "Kettle Cooked," on their packaging because one would assume it's obvious. As far as their oven baked chips, they have the quality of their regular kettle chips that is not like other oven baked chips, like the ones you'd find from Lays. I guess I would call it a hybrid from a subjective stand point, not sure about the process of those oven baked chips though.

Wotsits are the finest baked form, made in England like Kettle.

@skinky: I'm confused, Wotsits are cheese puffs right?

@katpottz: We still consider and refer to them as crisps, our word for chips.

@skinky: I was confused as to how they are "like kettle", are they kettle cooked cheese puffs?

I really like baked Lay's

@katpottz: Things like Doritos would be interchangably called "chips" or "crisps". Crisps are more like Pringles or bags of Walkers (Lays in almost everywhere not the UK or Ireland).

Or:

Surely anything cooked in a kettle will be soggy?

@ll_exile_ll: Absolutely the best, I get Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper all the time. I wan't to say Cape Cod chips are available nation-wide

Kettles Crispy Bacon & Maple Syrup are my favourite crisps.

Oven chips are okay. I've recently accepted them as passable chips. If you are trying to tell me that they're better than kettle chips, I question your humanity.

ALL DAMN DAY

Zapp's are the best.

Because of this thread Ii bought some Chio chips kettle cooked sour cream & spring union:

I didn't like they seemed tough to crack ?
is that normal? Because if so not a fan!
I like it when the chippies melt on my tongue.
