**The Great Chip Review: A Journey Through the World of Potato Chips**

As we embark on this journey to review some of the most popular potato chip brands, I must inform you that our esteemed guests will not be receiving an invitation to the coveted Chip Bowl. These individuals, affectionately referred to as "Lays fans," have been denied a spot at the coveted table due to their taste buds being "not exactly set on fire" by the chips in question.

We begin with Ruffles, a favorite among many, including yours truly. While I appreciate their crunchy texture and flavor profile, I must deduct points for their relatively thin and processed taste. Nevertheless, they still manage to earn a solid five out of ten from me. It's clear that these chips are manufactured to perfection, but their lackluster flavor holds them back from reaching true greatness.

Next up is Kettle Brand, whose name has become synonymous with the art of chip-making. Their story is one of family tradition and dedication to quality ingredients. As I took my first bite, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia wash over me. These chips are indeed a favorite among many, and it's easy to see why – they're crunchy, flavorful, and packed with just the right amount of essence that makes restaurant French fries so delicious.

But wait, there's more! We have Lays, the iconic brand that has captured the hearts of chip enthusiasts for generations. Their tagline "Bet you can't eat just one" is more than just a clever slogan – it's a testament to their addictive nature. These chips are indeed cravable, but they lack a certain je ne sais quoi that sets them apart from the rest.

And then, there are the mysterious "Lays-like" chips we've ordered special for this review. Their story is one of international intrigue, with a fascinating history that spans continents and cultures. However, when it comes to taste, these chips leave much to be desired – they're too thin, too lazy, and lack the necessary flavor to truly impress.

But the real kicker is Charles Chips, a brand so unknown that even I couldn't find any information on them. The balls-on-this-prick joke has become an inside meme among chip enthusiasts, but I'll let it slide this time. The real question remains: what do we do with all these chips? Should we sit in them with no bottoms on or perhaps try to find some creative way to repurpose them?

As we near the end of our journey, it's clear that the world of potato chips is full of surprises. From Ruffles' average taste to Kettle Brand's nostalgic charm, each brand has its own unique strengths and weaknesses. Lays, while addictive, falls short in terms of flavor profile. And Charles Chips... well, they're just a mystery wrapped in an enigma.

But fear not, dear readers! For we still have one more surprise up our sleeve – the "Lays-like" chips from New Jersey. Their story is one of tax and tariff, duty and shipping costs that add up to make these chips a true luxury item. And when it comes down to it, they're just... bad. The balls-on-this-prick joke has become a reality, as I can confidently say that these chips are worse than Lays.

As we conclude our review, I want to hear from you – what's your favorite chip brand? Do you agree with my rankings, or do you have a different order in mind? Let us know in the comments below!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enchips they're not just for chocolate computers and generational trauma they're now for potatoes and also they're not french fries Europeans you heard me today I'm going to taste each and every single kind of potato chip that we could get our hands on blind and I'm going to rank them one to 10 and then you are going to do with that information whatever you want it's your chip I'm just dipping in it let's get started first chip is a ruffle is is ruffled this doesn't look like Ruffles if I'm being honest because it looks very thick and kettled yeah let's try it out definitely a kettle chip high-end medium to high-end Kettle chip you know you know what I'm talking about probably like a Cape Cod kind of Zone I don't know what Ruffles are doing in the kettle chip format I don't know if they're adding to the conversation but it's a conversation worth having this is the first one how I I got to establish my rating system because this affects all the ratings to come a restaurant worthy potato chip these are higher than average they're not exploding my brain but they're good uh so I feel like these are a seven they're a solid Factory standard they're all Factory standard they're a solid Kettle chip so little things to say about chips I thought vanilla ice cream was going to be hard this is going to be a real uh Boulder Canyon a brand that I've not heard of until just right this very moment it's cooked in avocado oil you could have fool me I'm going to try to guess what oil is fried in now that's the only other dimension that I can add to this what kind of oil is fried in whether it was sea salt or just salt yep these are seven good job Boulder these chips are yellower than I'd say an average chip also I don't know about you guys but I'm a fold over guy ooh double fold over all the way across the scy they taste artisanal I I almost I think I get like a peanut oil vibe off of them I'm going to try to guess the fat it's not going to work they're a little thin I like kettle chips to be very thick and crispy but I do like the flavor but they're not not as good as the boulder Big Boulder Canyon River they're not as good as those so the I think these are a six Panera coming in strong just goes to show you can't tell the difference between a gourmet Kett chip and a Panera Kettle chip vegetable oil sunflower corn canola all the oils except peanut it's no pasta bread bowl no it's Domino's it's no soup bread bowl but it chip Bowl okay now we have some chips that are slightly lighter in color they're covered in potato peel thetis is what I would call it because they have the potato skin still on the chip you pay extra for that what the hell I think it's rancid oil I'm serious I think that the oil that they fried this in had turned I'm me try one more just to make sure I didn't get a bad now that tasted really good ah mixed bag literally it gets you a four there's an explanation for you on that there's an explanation for me I want to reach ju it's an open bag of chips don't throw them to me just hold them out just SW hold them out like a normal person just hold it still see how it swings classic sea salt Joe chips Indie chip companies they all have a story it's a very long story Joe's retro style chips are cooked the old fangled way in a very very hot cooking Kettle we carefully cook one batch of Joe's chips at a time so they are cooked small batch which presumably means that I got a chip from a different batch that was bad so I want to clarify I want to say that that good chip that I had was a solid seven if not an eight it had a great flavor to it the bad chip was not very good at all so I'm going to bump it up to a five because that that feels more fair I'll show you quality insurance right in this bowl a bit plainer janier looking chip if those aren't classic lays I'll shave my head get it those are classic lays I guarantee it could be something else I'm I'm no better for having eaten these chips but I'm no worse that gets it gets you a five that's a five well this is Market Pantry the this is a isn't this a brand of Target is a target BR okay Target you made some chips and they're fine but they're just a lays knockoff which I'm going to get I'm going to get really some hate for not liking lays that much but I just don't like L that much they boring here we have some more potato chips from looking at them I was sure that they were going to be normal not kettle chips but they're kettle chips they're thin but they're quite crunchy but it's a stale crunch they taste like they've been open for one day so it's not the end of the world but if you left these open for one day it would be good flavor texture is not great what does that get you gets you a four Cape Cod oh no come on I like cape C really hang on oh so crispy no no two chips are identical but they all share hearty potato flavor and that wonderful Cape Cod crunch which is the worst part about these chips sorry Cape Cod four okay now if those aren't lays I'll eat this entire Bowl pull it back I think these are LS they taste again just like lays they're incredibly salty or at least that first chip was incredibly salty flavors really Bland I'm tasting more oil and potato and they're pretty boring I think that gets you a four oh hairs the chips I learned about from that one episode of The Office crisp and tasty is that the flavor that's the flavor crisp and tasty they're not that tasty and yeah they're crisp okay some much yellower translucent chips I can see perfectly through this I could read a newspaper from a mile away through this chip and they're yellower so careful with what you buy crunch isn't that great flavors okay it tastes like again like peanut oil I guess I think all things taste like peanut oil I'm like that they also feel like they're going to be expensive some something about these screams expensive I don't know what but that makes me angrier because I don't like them I don't like that that's bad they taste good though four I knew it was Tores I should have said something but then I thought people would think I was cheating but I knew it was Torres 6.95 for they don't have some cutesy story in the back cuz they're like we're Torres we can charge whatever we want you're going to buy it why do we why would we write something oh yeah all right Torres as I suspected not worth the Euros boring huh what the hell is this what could these possibly be well okay to be fair we do have two I don't know how else to say it Pringle Style potato chips here today Pringles and another one I don't think these are Pringles okay they don't have that like it's not that I don't know what I'm talking about I have very I have bad flavor memory okay you can't fault me for that you can but you'd be a dick we must have gotten a stale batch cuz these are these are not good I swear that there's a difference between Pringles in a small can and Pringles in a big can medium can oh well even worse medium I've never even heard of such a thing I like Pringles a lot but I have to give these a bad score cuz they're not very good so I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to meet you halfway if normally I would give Pringles like a like a seven because they're very cravable and very tasty and just can't stop eating them uh and these are like a five so I'll meet you I'll meet you halfway at a at a six oh wow it's Pringles years ago asking did they change something ining well if Reddit is complaining about it then must be true oh might as well get all the wavy guys out of the way but Steve you know me you know me Steve you know me Steve I got I got to do it you know oh oh those are worse tastes Faker somehow almost like Styrofoam me worse texture I think I'm gonna give him a three I don't like them I don't much like him at all the good crisp company classic original potato crisps all taste no guilt too many times do I taste things and be like ah God I feel guilty for tasting this so much okay you saved 10 calories in 2 grams of fat so apparently that's guilt-free the chip Bowl knows no Prejudice is democratic system okay lot of foldovers here that's doing it for me that's getting me going good crunch that same like blended oil flavor like there a blend of fats in here I think Kettle style not too thick not too thin I mean in my mind you cannot be too thick you could give me a whole Kettle style potato and I would love it solid flavor but nothing too crazy or special so seven we got house how New York original sea saw how was how was New York born New York made he loved to tease his sons by calling calling him crackers oh no he love to teas his sons by calling potato chips crackers yeah okay nice job H lest brand of potato does CVS have a store brand of potatoes probably not ship Me Baby One More Time this is my favorite when one just sticks to another cuz it's like a fold over but different you know like uh these are good chips they taste good look good a lot of foldovers honestly there's so many foldovers I'm going to reward it for that would have been a seven but you put so many foldovers in there I'm going to give you an eight I really like their texture flavor solid they look good too they look better than most chips dirty dirty chips dirty tells the story of the humbled potato fresh from the earth sliced into cooked the same way it's been done since 1986 look I love any product that is named unappealingly it's cool and also your product has to be really good to stand up to its name so dirty potato chips so far best of the bunch I would swear these are the exact same chips that I just had the same okay no that's very salty okay that's very salty and lot of foldovers look at all the foldovers I'm stacking look at how high can I stack the foldovers there's another one so it's too salty but the flavor of the actual potato tastes better somehow and I love all the foldovers so it's going to tie it's going to tie for an eight Jimmy JS Jimmy JN regular chips oh look at all the foldovers they're all foldovers these are really good chips okay Jimmy Johns stop eating them you already gred them what are you doing is this a is this one pickle it's a singular pickle this isn't one pickle there's at least twice or Thrice as many as one pickles Jesus am I right fellas these ones look the same again they all start to look the same not as many foldovers though I can tell you that much except for this look at this I got a fold over within a fold over do you see that I'm not going to make an Inception joke even though I totally could I'd be justified I'm calling it right now from now on if you find a fold over that contains within it yet a separate fold over it's good luck they're too thin and not quite crispy enough for a kettle chip so that's the only thing they don't have G for them compared to the last two so I'm going to give this guy some okay that's a just a just fine Kettle chip if you ask me fine by me oh what are what are these potato potato chips yeah oo I was just craving potato God these look wet they're so oily look at the the sheen look at how shiny do you see how shiny they're so so oily so greasy so dirty the these are all the same um you've been giving me the exact same chips from the same bags this the beginning I know it they're so oily that the crunch becomes muted almost like french fries that you didn't drain properly after cooking like there's a dullness about their texture I don't know what to call it where it's just like your your teeth Don't shatter through this texture is not good they they almost stay still and uh also woefully low on salt um so kind of not taking many boxes for me here I think I'm going to have to give these guys a four if they were any grosser or anything I'd give them a three or two but they're not gross they're just disappointing zaps owns zaps and dirty whoa okay folks we just learned some very upsetting information dirty I gave an eight2 right if they're the same chips and they're just putting them in different bags you're right to unsubscribe I I get it you shouldn't shouldn't be here I love I like zaps so we might have just gotten stale zaps but if I'm judging off this batch my score my my my ruling stands all right next batch is very uniformly big wide and roundish no foldovers I I have to dock it for that I love foldovers so much I know you're not a foldover person but I love foldovers and these are my decisions I have to dock it how awful tastes burnt let me try another one just to make sure it wasn't that yeah it tastes burnt I'd tolerate them if they had to if I had a sandwich and no other chips and I have to have chips with my sandwich that's the one thing saving you from a one this is a two why is this drama people love wise oh don't well you're wrong people love wise you're wrong sorry sorry if you guys like them but I don't two wow these are even yellower than the Torres chips not terribly crispy crispy enough but they're very very thin they taste like Pringles but they feel like lays and they look like Tores these are confusing they're probably lays now that I didn't say these are Lays now these are going to be lays these lays don't okay the flavor is not really there like it's very very muted flavor and like I said it's very Pringle like and not enough salt like I don't I'm not getting enough salt on these yeah and the flavor of the actual chip is not great now that I've licked it I'm going to give him a three three for thee but not for me see G what the bonil alav Vista $33.50 for a one and three qu oun packet of garbage I hate everything about this they're probably lovely people but oo these are not great and I hate how expensive they are and why are all expensive potato chips yellow they're also from Spain oh they're from Spain that explains it or should I say that expains it we just pulled a hard left into a spot slightly too small for our car called munchos those are munchos they're not as good as I remember they're so light and so crispy and they just kind of disappear in your mouth these don't feel as light and crispy as they used to and the flavor is way flatter than I remember so you you remember munchos tell me if this tastes the same to you does that taste the same no it does definitely not like the Revelation that I remember at my first sleepover when these guys hit me they hit me hard brother but now they're just a little love tap at best the flavor is bordering on not good I give him a four yeah oh wow look at munchos what are these yeah no something something's off something a right who very thick very crispy distinctly potato WEA flavor which I know sounds strange for me to say chips don't really taste like true potato flavor they taste like chips they taste like fried potatoes very different and these taste kind of potatoey which is nice tastes off again like kind of like the munchos well they're not bad they have a good texture flavor is throwing me for a loop a little bit salt content's good that gets you a six oh Deep River Saucy pie I always mix up Deep River and dirty dirty River because we give a chip that's a saucy that's Saucy as hell giving back is the very core of Deep River because we give a chip well damn it now I feel bad I'm you know what this is the first charitable chip I've had today I'm bump I'm bumping it up to a seven you ever squeeze a chip between your teeth and oil comes like leeches out of it you feel it some are burnt some are way too oily and the ones that aren't are okay the ones that aren't I would give a six the other ones I'm giving a three so that gets you a five right no four that gets you a four and upun it down five what do we got here good and gather this Target's fancy pancy Brands there's so much variance that was a really good ship I've had some really bad ones a real mixed bag five uh five five really crunchy really good flavor there's salt and the chips they taste kind of like their frying oil which I kind of like if it's good frying oil they're good I like them but they're not blowing me away so seven also and it's called deash you know dasas come on guys jeez what is this you're probably wondering why it's called dasas well it's kind of a funny story and it pertains to our deep resounding love of making high quality chips means what honey so apparently this means honey in Hebrew okay all right if these aren't lays that LS are they stupid um yeah I'm greasy now I wasn't greasy before I don't have oily skin it's cuz the chips some give me towel too shiny okay okay all right it was the chips these are AR very good it's boring just very boring four four on these guys Trader Joe's Ed to the classic potato chip and it is very fitting name because it seems like well it's an Ode to lays but they're not allowed to say that there's nothing better than a classic like your parents old station wagon with the wood paneling still going on with car so basically this was written on here specifically for Gen xers this is a little hey you know what we know that you're just turned 40 and you're pretty depressed we got a little bit of nostalgia for you oh oh oh oh it's another fold within a fold that's two separate chips my friend that's the equivalent of finding eight eight leaf clovers it's like a rose that's way better thank you okay those are delicious they have a really great natural kind of earthy flavor almost and the fat flavor is very very good I don't know if they're FL frying in peanut oil cotton seed or freaking casserole Cent I don't know nice and thick really really crunchy and crispy two different things they look natural too there's little bits of green you ever get a potato it's green that's the thing that's what happens when you make chips the hard the the good oldfashioned way the hard way so I guarantee the bag says I I don't just like these chips I love these chips I really like these God damn it these are a nine I love these chips right right it's 71s chips I truly am a man of the people I certainly didn't know that 7-Eleven made chips I certainly didn't know that they had a brand called seven select the boldest flavors always seem to be found in the tastiest chips what what does that mean the boldest flavors always do seem to be found in the tastiest chips y'all make the best kettle chips I've had in a hot Texas minute wow Christ I have to eat the roast chip but I'm going to give him a 10 if I do do you hear that Steve rigids rigid chippers okay if those aren't lays I'm kidding they're Ruffles but they're absolutely Ruffles and ew I don't care for them at all off putting kind of burnt flavor crispy but not at all crunchy and even for a thin non- Kettle style chip these things are barely there and I'm sure I'm about to get crucified for saying that I don't like Ruffles here I am I got it with before show me the Ruffles oh my God thank you so much oh my Christi it's these mother again oh the good crisp company you guys are wacka do Australian chips oh for two okay but these taste weird these taste really weird these taste weird brother y your pudding what what the front flavor is like a Yorkshire pudding you could have fooled me yeah you know what these tastes like they taste like a composite chip like Pringles that's not a slice of potato that is a composite of potato product that's been pressed into a pringle and the the crunch is very strange very styrofoam me they're not very good I don't like them very much which nuts them a three yeah okay okay they're healthy they have 70% less fat nothing artificial never deep fried that's what these taste like they taste like the baked lays free of anything artificial free of preservatives free from gluten free from fat saturated fats and free from cholesterol there you have it folks H wonder what these oddly act agonal sex agonal whatever shaped L baked lays are I used to get baked lays every single time I went to Subway every single time for my health the last ones were better than this I'm going to give these a three again this is something I used to eat with high frequency but compared to the other chips nah son I shouldn't talk like that doesn't sound right coming out of me well there's one thing I know that these aren't and that's Lays I'm kidding these are Lays I mean they suck like lays they are a little stale feeling um flavor is very boring and they're undersalted so I'll give these guys of four bow basket which is an extremely Regional grocery store brand so we'll forgive you for not ever having heard of these and we hope you you'll forgive us for for even having them on the show next up some orangey chips I have to assume are sweet potato chips I hate that they're kind of good because I know who makes them and I want to tear them apart and I still will but I can't let that cloud my judging process you okay they're actually not that great they're not salted enough oh yeah no I'm getting some really soft ones now that was a soft chip not a sentence you want to hear not at my birthday party probably a three on these actually first one I kind of liked but then it just really went downhill and that should be the opposite with chips you shouldn't be like you should be like okay okay can you find out who owns good health if anyone before I eviscerate thems OOTS has a strangle hold on this chips industry apparently this brand is awful okay I'll tell you why good health makes uh those little um those veggie straws that you see at the store and they have one of the most misleading predatory graphics on it that I've ever seen in my entire life here is a bag of veggie straws yeah MH fun right snacks for you and the kids looks healthy no it's bu company call good health contains the following vitamin values of veggies per serving 2 and 1/2 cups of broccoli worth of vitamin A uh seven cups of spinach because it's saying it has seven cups of spinach worth of vitamin B6 a vitamin that spinach has notably not that much of it's the most deceiving thing I've ever seen in your in my life because you see that and you think oh my God it's like I'm eating a bowl full of vegetables but in fact it's like you're eating the same amount of this bowl full of vegetables if you only had their least active nutrients so you guys I'm not even putting you guys in the chip Bowl you're being denied the chip Bowl okay these are Lays well might not be L but they are ruffles they don't taste burnt they taste like you know really really standard average potato chip they're riged for my pleasure they're well Sal Ed these are probably one of the most manufactured chips in the world and they're just fine I'm going to give these a five I know that Ruffles are a favorite I'm not saying they're not one of mine but compared to other chips they're thin they're not as crunchy they're not as flavorful and they taste very processed I still love them but they deserve a five they're middle of the pack oh thank God they're Ruffles okay Ruffles I have to speak my truth you have to listen to it no you don't please don't click no no no don't click don't click stay here I'll be funnier all right cool yeah nice I like these for the same reason I liked those 7-Eleven chips they taste very potatoey like it tastes like like once used cooking oil you know like that's that's what makes restaurant french fries taste so good is they got all this French dry Essence in the oil if you had a few more foldovers I'd award you the double fold over that's a nine I like those a lot Kettle how did you guys get this brand name oh my God look at this story it's half pictures so this is all just bragging about how they use less packaging cool I guess I'd rather that than your story we we our family wouldn't be alive today without chips Kettle brand potato chips I knew that this was one of my favorites but I'm very happy to have confirmed that without knowing it you know what I mean all right is that the last one no nope one more wonder what it is number 30 what do we got here I wish you had picked up some lays cuz these are almost exactly like lays oh no lays is the days is long and they're not as good as most other chips but they're oddly cravable can't just eat one that's their tagline is't it bet you can't just eat one slogan lays not on their back they must have killed it betch you can't stop eating them bet you eating a whole bag by yourself naked I'm afraid yeah I mean they're they're really dead center of the pack if not not that great uh but they are very cravable and they are kind of the prototypical chips five filets best used as a sandwich topper see these are the ones that they're eating over there just for fun even though we have all the chips in the world so should I give them a 10 or something what do I do I like how the salt my tongue rough you heard it here folks well folks we special ordered these chips and forgot so I already know what they are I'm not going to be able to taste them blind we we ordered them special and we wanted to make sure that we got a chance to review and taste them so I'll do my best to stay objective and not not not think about the fact these chips are from New Jersey never seen these before in my life they you really shouldn't put chips in a clear plastic bag that doesn't that doesn't Sparkle let's see if it's worth the the tax and tariff and Duty and whatever else you have to do to get these chips I'm trying really hard to give them Fair crack but they suck they're very lazik in their thinness and texture but they actually have less flavor and not salty enough but you get a really handsome tin that your grandmother can keep stuffing that you'll find when you have to go clean out her house how much did these this cost us I'm sorry come again 3.99 $37 after tax and shipping to eat these garbage chips to quote a very very famous new jerseyan the balls on these Pricks the balls on this prick it's best impression I can did totally honestly come on three cuz they're worse than lays that's all I have to say about them you want to add Charles Chips no I don't want to add Charles Chips I don't want I don't want to Sully this batch there you have it folks 28s two n no surprises here couple big surprises right here was not expecting that these are my top picks but they're just my top picks I want to hear yours I want to hear what you think I should rank next and whatever else is on your mind just leave a comment I'm listening I'm reading the question now becomes what do we do with all these chips I'm asking I have no idea what do we do should I sit in them with no bottoms on or anything else anything elsechips they're not just for chocolate computers and generational trauma they're now for potatoes and also they're not french fries Europeans you heard me today I'm going to taste each and every single kind of potato chip that we could get our hands on blind and I'm going to rank them one to 10 and then you are going to do with that information whatever you want it's your chip I'm just dipping in it let's get started first chip is a ruffle is is ruffled this doesn't look like Ruffles if I'm being honest because it looks very thick and kettled yeah let's try it out definitely a kettle chip high-end medium to high-end Kettle chip you know you know what I'm talking about probably like a Cape Cod kind of Zone I don't know what Ruffles are doing in the kettle chip format I don't know if they're adding to the conversation but it's a conversation worth having this is the first one how I I got to establish my rating system because this affects all the ratings to come a restaurant worthy potato chip these are higher than average they're not exploding my brain but they're good uh so I feel like these are a seven they're a solid Factory standard they're all Factory standard they're a solid Kettle chip so little things to say about chips I thought vanilla ice cream was going to be hard this is going to be a real uh Boulder Canyon a brand that I've not heard of until just right this very moment it's cooked in avocado oil you could have fool me I'm going to try to guess what oil is fried in now that's the only other dimension that I can add to this what kind of oil is fried in whether it was sea salt or just salt yep these are seven good job Boulder these chips are yellower than I'd say an average chip also I don't know about you guys but I'm a fold over guy ooh double fold over all the way across the scy they taste artisanal I I almost I think I get like a peanut oil vibe off of them I'm going to try to guess the fat it's not going to work they're a little thin I like kettle chips to be very thick and crispy but I do like the flavor but they're not not as good as the boulder Big Boulder Canyon River they're not as good as those so the I think these are a six Panera coming in strong just goes to show you can't tell the difference between a gourmet Kett chip and a Panera Kettle chip vegetable oil sunflower corn canola all the oils except peanut it's no pasta bread bowl no it's Domino's it's no soup bread bowl but it chip Bowl okay now we have some chips that are slightly lighter in color they're covered in potato peel thetis is what I would call it because they have the potato skin still on the chip you pay extra for that what the hell I think it's rancid oil I'm serious I think that the oil that they fried this in had turned I'm me try one more just to make sure I didn't get a bad now that tasted really good ah mixed bag literally it gets you a four there's an explanation for you on that there's an explanation for me I want to reach ju it's an open bag of chips don't throw them to me just hold them out just SW hold them out like a normal person just hold it still see how it swings classic sea salt Joe chips Indie chip companies they all have a story it's a very long story Joe's retro style chips are cooked the old fangled way in a very very hot cooking Kettle we carefully cook one batch of Joe's chips at a time so they are cooked small batch which presumably means that I got

good at all so I'm going to bump it up to a five because that that feels more fair I'll show you quality insurance right in this bowl a bit plainer janier looking chip if those aren't classic lays I'll shave my head get it those are classic lays I guarantee it could be something else I'm I'm no better for having eaten these chips but I'm no worse that gets it gets you a five that's a five well this is Market Pantry the this is a isn't this a brand of Target is a target BR okay Target you made some chips and they're fine but they're just a lays knockoff which I'm going to get I'm going to get really some hate for not liking lays that much but I just don't like L that much they boring here we have some more potato chips from looking at them I was sure that they were going to be normal not kettle chips but they're kettle chips they're thin but they're quite crunchy but it's a stale crunch they taste like they've been open for one day so it's not the end of the world but if you left these open for one day it would be good flavor texture is not great what does that get you gets you a four Cape Cod oh no come on I like cape C really hang on oh so crispy no no two chips are identical but they all share hearty potato flavor and that wonderful Cape Cod crunch which is the worst part about these chips sorry Cape Cod four okay now if those aren't lays I'll eat this entire Bowl pull it back I think these are LS they taste again just like lays they're incredibly salty or at least that first chip was incredibly salty flavors really Bland I'm tasting more oil and potato and they're pretty boring I think that gets you a four oh hairs the chips I learned about from that one episode of The Office crisp and tasty is that the flavor that's the flavor crisp and tasty they're not that tasty and yeah they're crisp okay some much yellower translucent chips I can see perfectly through this I could read a newspaper from a mile away through this chip and they're yellower so careful with what you buy crunch isn't that great flavors okay it tastes like again like peanut oil I guess I think all things taste like peanut oil I'm like that they also feel like they're going to be expensive some something about these screams expensive I don't know what but that makes me angrier because I don't like them I don't like that that's bad they taste good though four I knew it was Tores I should have said something but then I thought people would think I was cheating but I knew it was Torres 6.95 for they don't have some cutesy story in the back cuz they're like we're Torres we can charge whatever we want you're going to buy it why do we why would we write something oh yeah all right Torres as I suspected not worth the Euros boring huh what the hell is this what could these possibly be well okay to be fair we do have two I don't know how else to say it Pringle Style potato chips here today Pringles and another one I don't think these are Pringles okay they don't have that like it's not that I don't know what I'm talking about I have very I have bad flavor memory okay you can't fault me for that you can but you'd be a dick we must have gotten a stale batch cuz these are these are not good I swear that there's a difference between Pringles in a small can and Pringles in a big can medium can oh well even worse medium I've never even heard of such a thing I like Pringles a lot but I have to give these a bad score cuz they're not very good so I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to meet you halfway if normally I would give Pringles like a like a seven because they're very cravable and very tasty and just can't stop eating them uh and these are like a five so I'll meet you I'll meet you halfway at a at a six oh wow it's Pringles years ago asking did they change something ining well if Reddit is complaining about it then must be true oh might as well get all the wavy guys out of the way but Steve you know me you know me Steve you know me Steve I got I got to do it you know oh oh those are worse tastes Faker somehow almost like Styrofoam me worse texture I think I'm gonna give him a three I don't like them I don't much like him at all the good crisp company classic original potato crisps all taste no guilt too many times do I taste things and be like ah God I feel guilty for tasting this so much okay you saved 10 calories in 2 grams of fat so apparently that's guilt-free the chip Bowl knows no Prejudice is democratic system okay lot of foldovers here that's doing it for me that's getting me going good crunch that same like blended oil flavor like there a blend of fats in here I think Kettle style not too thick not too thin I mean in my mind you cannot be too thick you could give me a whole Kettle style potato and I would love it solid flavor but nothing too crazy or special so seven we got house how New York original sea saw how was how was New York born New York made he loved to tease his sons by calling calling him crackers oh no he love to teas his sons by calling potato chips crackers yeah okay nice job H lest brand of potato does CVS have a store brand of potatoes probably not ship Me Baby One More Time this is my favorite when one just sticks to another cuz it's like a fold over but different you know like uh these are good chips they taste good look good a lot of foldovers honestly there's so many foldovers I'm going to reward it for that would have been a seven but you put so many foldovers in there I'm going to give you an eight I really like their texture flavor solid they look good too they look better than most chips dirty dirty chips dirty tells the story of the humbled potato fresh from the earth sliced into cooked the same way it's been done since 1986 look I love any product that is named unappealingly it's cool and also your product has to be really good to stand up to its name so dirty potato chips so far best of the bunch I would swear these are the exact same chips that I just had the same okay no that's very salty okay that's very salty and lot of foldovers look at all the foldovers I'm stacking look at how high can I stack the foldovers there's another one so it's too salty but the flavor of the actual potato tastes better somehow and I love all the foldovers so it's going to tie it's going to tie for an eight Jimmy JS Jimmy JN regular chips oh look at all the foldovers they're all foldovers these are really good chips okay Jimmy Johns stop eating them you already gred them what are you doing is this a is this one pickle it's a singular pickle this isn't one pickle there's at least twice or Thrice as many as one pickles Jesus am I right fellas these ones look the same again they all start to look the same not as many foldovers though I can tell you that much except for this look at this I got a fold over within a fold over do you see that I'm not going to make an Inception joke even though I totally could I'd be justified I'm calling it right now from now on if you find a fold over that contains within it yet a separate fold over it's good luck they're too thin and not quite crispy enough for a kettle chip so that's the only thing they don't have G for them compared to the last two so I'm going to give this guy some okay that's a just a just fine Kettle chip if you ask me fine by me oh what are what are these potato potato chips yeah oo I was just craving potato God these look wet they're so oily look at the the sheen look at how shiny do you see how shiny they're so so oily so greasy so dirty the these are all the same um you've been giving me the exact same chips from the same bags this the beginning I know it they're so oily that the crunch becomes muted almost like french fries that you didn't drain properly after cooking like there's a dullness about their texture I don't know what to call it where it's just like your your teeth Don't shatter through this texture is not good they they almost stay still and uh also woefully low on salt um so kind of not taking many boxes for me here I think I'm going to have to give these guys a four if they were any grosser or anything I'd give them a three or two but they're not gross they're just disappointing zaps owns zaps and dirty whoa okay folks we just learned some very upsetting information dirty I gave an eight2 right if they're the same chips and they're just putting them in different bags you're right to unsubscribe I I get it you shouldn't shouldn't be here I love I like zaps so we might have just gotten stale zaps but if I'm judging off this batch my score my my my ruling stands all right next batch is very uniformly big wide and roundish no foldovers I I have to dock it for that I love foldovers so much I know you're not a foldover person but I love foldovers and these are my decisions I have to dock it how awful tastes burnt let me try another one just to make sure it wasn't that yeah it tastes burnt I'd tolerate them if they had to if I had a sandwich and no other chips and I have to have chips with my sandwich that's the one thing saving you from a one this is a two why is this drama people love wise oh don't well you're wrong people love wise you're wrong sorry sorry if you guys like them but I don't two wow these are even yellower than the Torres chips not terribly crispy crispy enough but they're very very thin they taste like Pringles but they feel like lays and they look like Tores these are confusing they're probably lays now that I didn't say these are Lays now these are going to be lays these lays don't okay the flavor is not really there like it's very very muted flavor and like I said it's very Pringle like and not enough salt like I don't I'm not getting enough salt on these yeah and the flavor of the actual chip is not great now that I've licked it I'm going to give him a three three for thee but not for me see G what the bonil alav Vista $33.50 for a one and three qu oun packet of garbage I hate everything about this they're probably lovely people but oo these are not great and I hate how expensive they are and why are all expensive potato chips yellow they're also from Spain oh they're from Spain that explains it or should I say that expains it we just pulled a hard left into a spot slightly too small for our car called munchos those are munchos they're not as good as I remember they're so light and so crispy and they just kind of disappear in your mouth these don't feel as light and crispy as they used to and the flavor is way flatter than I remember so you you remember munchos tell me if this tastes the same to you does that taste the same no it does definitely not like the Revelation that I remember at my first sleepover when these guys hit me they hit me hard brother but now they're just a little love tap at best the flavor is bordering on not good I give him a four yeah oh wow look at munchos what are these yeah no something something's off something a right who very thick very crispy distinctly potato WEA flavor which I know sounds strange for me to say chips don't really taste like true potato flavor they taste like chips they taste like fried potatoes very different and these taste kind of potatoey which is nice tastes off again like kind of like the munchos well they're not bad they have a good texture flavor is throwing me for a loop a little bit salt content's good that gets you a six oh Deep River Saucy pie I always mix up Deep River and dirty dirty River because we give a chip that's a saucy that's Saucy as hell giving back is the very core of Deep River because we give a chip well damn it now I feel bad I'm you know what this is the first charitable chip I've had today I'm bump I'm bumping it up to a seven you ever squeeze a chip between your teeth and oil comes like leeches out of it you feel it some are burnt some are way too oily and the ones that aren't are okay the ones that aren't I would give a six the other ones I'm giving a three so that gets you a five right no four that gets you a four and upun it down five what do we got here good and gather this Target's fancy pancy Brands there's so much variance that was a really good ship I've had some really bad ones a real mixed bag five uh five five really crunchy really good flavor there's salt and the chips they taste kind of like their frying oil which I kind of like if it's good frying oil they're good I like them but they're not blowing me away so seven also and it's called deash you know dasas come on guys jeez what is this you're probably wondering why it's called dasas well it's kind of a funny story and it pertains to our deep resounding love of making high quality chips means what honey so apparently this means honey in Hebrew okay all right if these aren't lays that LS are they stupid um yeah I'm greasy now I wasn't greasy before I don't have oily skin it's cuz the chips some give me towel too shiny okay okay all right it was the chips these are AR very good it's boring just very boring four four on these guys Trader Joe's Ed to the classic potato chip and it is very fitting name because it seems like well it's an Ode to lays but they're not allowed to say that there's nothing better than a classic like your parents old station wagon with the wood paneling still going on with car so basically this was written on here specifically for Gen xers this is a little hey you know what we know that you're just turned 40 and you're pretty depressed we got a little bit of nostalgia for you oh oh oh oh it's another fold within a fold that's two separate chips my friend that's the equivalent of finding eight eight leaf clovers it's like a rose that's way better thank you okay those are delicious they have a really great natural kind of earthy flavor almost and the fat flavor is very very good I don't know if they're FL frying in peanut oil cotton seed or freaking casserole Cent I don't know nice and thick really really crunchy and crispy two different things they look natural too there's little bits of green you ever get a potato it's green that's the thing that's what happens when you make chips the hard the the good oldfashioned way the hard way so I guarantee the bag says I I don't just like these chips I love these chips I really like these God damn it these are a nine I love these chips right right it's 71s chips I truly am a man of the people I certainly didn't know that 7-Eleven made chips I certainly didn't know that they had a brand called seven select the boldest flavors always seem to be found in the tastiest chips what what does that mean the boldest flavors always do seem to be found in the tastiest chips y'all make the best kettle chips I've had in a hot Texas minute wow Christ I have to eat the roast chip but I'm going to give him a 10 if I do do you hear that Steve rigids rigid chippers okay if those aren't lays I'm kidding they're Ruffles but they're absolutely Ruffles and ew I don't care for them at all off putting kind of burnt flavor crispy but not at all crunchy and even for a thin non- Kettle style chip these things are barely there and I'm sure I'm about to get crucified for saying that I don't like Ruffles here I am I got it with before show me the Ruffles oh my God thank you so much oh my Christi it's these mother again oh the good crisp company you guys are wacka do Australian chips oh for two okay but these taste weird these taste really weird these taste weird brother y your pudding what what the front flavor is like a Yorkshire pudding you could have fooled me yeah you know what these tastes like they taste like a composite chip like Pringles that's not a slice of potato that is a composite of potato product that's been pressed into a pringle and the the crunch is very strange very styrofoam me they're not very good I don't like them very much which nuts them a three yeah okay okay they're healthy they have 70% less fat nothing artificial never deep fried that's what these taste like they taste like the baked lays free of anything artificial free of preservatives free from gluten free from fat saturated fats and free from cholesterol there you have it folks H wonder what these oddly act agonal sex agonal whatever shaped L baked lays are I used to get baked lays every single time I went to Subway every single time for my health the last ones were better than this I'm going to give these a three again this is something I used to eat with high frequency but compared to the other chips nah son I shouldn't talk like that doesn't sound right coming out of me well there's one thing I know that these aren't and that's Lays I'm kidding these are Lays I mean they suck like lays they are a little stale feeling um flavor is very boring and they're undersalted so I'll give these guys of four bow basket which is an extremely Regional grocery store brand so we'll forgive you for not ever having heard of these and we hope you you'll forgive us for for even having them on the show next up some orangey chips I have to assume are sweet potato chips I hate that they're kind of good because I know who makes them and I want to tear them apart and I still will but I can't let that cloud my judging process you okay they're actually not that great they're not salted enough oh yeah no I'm getting some really soft ones now that was a soft chip not a sentence you want to hear not at my birthday party probably a three on these actually first one I kind of liked but then it just really went downhill and that should be the opposite with chips you shouldn't be like you should be like okay okay can you find out who owns good health if anyone before I eviscerate thems OOTS has a strangle hold on this chips industry apparently this brand is awful okay I'll tell you why good health makes uh those little um those veggie straws that you see at the store and they have one of the most misleading predatory graphics on it that I've ever seen in my entire life here is a bag of veggie straws yeah MH fun right snacks for you and the kids looks healthy no it's bu company call good health contains the following vitamin values of veggies per serving 2 and 1/2 cups of broccoli worth of vitamin A uh seven cups of spinach because it's saying it has seven cups of spinach worth of vitamin B6 a vitamin that spinach has notably not that much of it's the most deceiving thing I've ever seen in your in my life because you see that and you think oh my God it's like I'm eating a bowl full of vegetables but in fact it's like you're eating the same amount of this bowl full of vegetables if you only had their least active nutrients so you guys I'm not even putting you guys in the chip Bowl you're being denied the chip Bowl okay these are Lays well might not be L but they are ruffles they don't taste burnt they taste like you know really really standard average potato chip they're riged for my pleasure they're well Sal Ed these are probably one of the most manufactured chips in the world and they're just fine I'm going to give these a five I know that Ruffles are a favorite I'm not saying they're not one of mine but compared to other chips they're thin they're not as crunchy they're not as flavorful and they taste very processed I still love them but they deserve a five they're middle of the pack oh thank God they're Ruffles okay Ruffles I have to speak my truth you have to listen to it no you don't please don't click no no no don't click don't click stay here I'll be funnier all right cool yeah nice I like these for the same reason I liked those 7-Eleven chips they taste very potatoey like it tastes like like once used cooking oil you know like that's that's what makes restaurant french fries taste so good is they got all this French dry Essence in the oil if you had a few more foldovers I'd award you the double fold over that's a nine I like those a lot Kettle how did you guys get this brand name oh my God look at this story it's half pictures so this is all just bragging about how they use less packaging cool I guess I'd rather that than your story we we our family wouldn't be alive today without chips Kettle brand potato chips I knew that this was one of my favorites but I'm very happy to have confirmed that without knowing it you know what I mean all right is that the last one no nope one more wonder what it is number 30 what do we got here I wish you had picked up some lays cuz these are almost exactly like lays oh no lays is the days is long and they're not as good as most other chips but they're oddly cravable can't just eat one that's their tagline is't it bet you can't just eat one slogan lays not on their back they must have killed it betch you can't stop eating them bet you eating a whole bag by yourself naked I'm afraid yeah I mean they're they're really dead center of the pack if not not that great uh but they are very cravable and they are kind of the prototypical chips five filets best used as a sandwich topper see these are the ones that they're eating over there just for fun even though we have all the chips in the world so should I give them a 10 or something what do I do I like how the salt my tongue rough you heard it here folks well folks we special ordered these chips and forgot so I already know what they are I'm not going to be able to taste them blind we we ordered them special and we wanted to make sure that we got a chance to review and taste them so I'll do my best to stay objective and not not not think about the fact these chips are from New Jersey never seen these before in my life they you really shouldn't put chips in a clear plastic bag that doesn't that doesn't Sparkle let's see if it's worth the the tax and tariff and Duty and whatever else you have to do to get these chips I'm trying really hard to give them Fair crack but they suck they're very lazik in their thinness and texture but they actually have less flavor and not salty enough but you get a really handsome tin that your grandmother can keep stuffing that you'll find when you have to go clean out her house how much did these this cost us I'm sorry come again 3.99 $37 after tax and shipping to eat these garbage chips to quote a very very famous new jerseyan the balls on these Pricks the balls on this prick it's best impression I can did totally honestly come on three cuz they're worse than lays that's all I have to say about them you want to add Charles Chips no I don't want to add Charles Chips I don't want I don't want to Sully this batch there you have it folks 28s two n no surprises here couple big surprises right here was not expecting that these are my top picks but they're just my top picks I want to hear yours I want to hear what you think I should rank next and whatever else is on your mind just leave a comment I'm listening I'm reading the question now becomes what do we do with all these chips I'm asking I have no idea what do we do should I sit in them with no bottoms on or anything else anything else\n"
