Utz Ripple Crisp All Natural Potato chips




Price:             $4.99

Weight:        15 oz.

Color / Appearance:         Very light golden colored rippled chips.  These chips are smallish in size but not overly so.  There are just no mammoth chips in the bag.

Crunch:         These chips have a decent crunch.  However, they could be a bit sturdier in structure.  This would be important if you were going to use them for dipping.  

Flavor:           Decent fried potato flavor.  But, not a very flavorful chip if taken on merit.  They definitely need a bowl of dip in the nearby vicinity.

Chip Quality:           Decent.  But there are quite a few broken chips in the bag.   Going by my estimate at least 40% of the chips are broken in this bag. 

Overall:        These chips are okay.  I would recommend picking up a container of dip on your way out of the store.  They just aren’t a stand-alone snack.  And then if you take into account their weak structure.  They just really aren’t ideal.  I really don’t like seeing little broken crumbs of other people’s chips in the dip.  I don’t like that phenomenon.  When I think about it a little bit these chips remind me of the handful of chips that will often be put onto your plate at a lunch counter type restaurant when you have ordered a sandwich.  I am usually disappointed to see them there because I almost always prefer fries in that scenario.
