Overall Rating: 3.5/5
Summary: well, these were not quite as crunchy as I had hoped, but then again, the bag was open for a few days before I tried the first chip. So, I will refrain from deducting too many points there. I do enjoy the flavour. You do really get the potato chip flavour. I do like the nutritional profile; the calories are decent and it's low sodium. Brownie points for the brand focus on sustainability, supporting the Nature Conservancy, and the environment.
