I was in Kroger one day and saw this little bin of chips for $1.00. Looked like a new product and honestly, the nice graphic design lured me over there too. I picked up a couple of individual bags of these because I saw that each bag was only 100 calories and I thought it would be a great little snack if they were tasty!
Let me tell you...I am in LOVE. Mostly with the BBQ ones because BBQ chips are always my favorites. I never have been a big fan of regular potato chips because I find them too greasy. When baked chips came out, I was so excited, but these are even better! They are super light and very crunchy. They are potatoes that have literally been popped like popcorn.
They are low fat (4-5g per serving) and low calorie (100-120c per serving depending on the packaging). They come in single serving bags or multiple serving bags lots of flavors as you can see from the image. I have tried the BBQ, Sour Cream & Onion, and Sea Salt & Vinegar chips! I liked them all!
The great thing about the small single serving bags is that they are exactly 100 calories and you can't eat the entire bag like you could if you bought the multiple serving bags. The large bags only have 3 to 3.5 servings in them for about $3.50 at my local Kroger. The serving size in the multiple serving bags is a little larger making that serving 120 calories.
In my opinion, buying the individual bags is slightly more expensive, but it curbs my desire to eat ALL of them. Which is a problem we are all obviously trying to overcome and sometimes solutions to that problem can come in the form of convenience at a bit of a cost. Which is OK. I'm seriously thinking of purchasing a 24 pack of the BBQ ones on Amazon for $20 thus saving $4 and right now I have free shipping because of an Amazon Prime membership trial.
I feel silly buying in bulk off the internet, but I guess it's no different than going to Sams or Costco!
You guys should seriously try these if you see them in your stores! Check out their website for more info! www.popchips.com

I have heard of these for a while but just recently starting seeing them... haven't tried them yet but maybe now I will :)
i LOVE them!! i get the big bag at bj's for around 6 bucks, only bad thing is they only have the original flavor!
@Janelle - you should definitely give them a try!
@Carmen - we only have a few flavors around here too! I would like to try them all!
Gotta give them a try.
I've been hearing about these, too! But I don't think I could afford them for more than $1/bag. Yowch! :(

These are great because they're only 100 calories per pack and are just as good, if not better, than other chips out there.
