Kettle Brand Potato Chips

Post by Coach Polly »

Has anyone every tried Kettle Brand Sea Salt Potato Chips? The ingredient list is: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (safflower or sunflower), and sea salt. That's it. I know I don't need to eat any prepackaged foods but I find myself needing a few things to be able to "grab and go".

I used to eat them all the time when I was eating potatoes. I didn't have any noticeable problems with them. The oil is what where the problem arises. Sometimes they use vegetable oil (soybean oil), corn oil, etc.

Yes, I've eaten them. Other than being addictive and fattening, they seem to be OK, and generally tasty.

FWIW, most of us can tolerate plain old Lay's Classic Potato Chips. They're mighty salty, though, and I find that if I eat very many of them, either the salt, or the oil, (or both), tend to make me feel a bit cruddy.

I love Kettle's chips! Not only do they not have soybean oil (believe me, I would know) but they don't have GMO ingredients. They have a new flavor--"Fully Loaded Baked Potato." The only problem I have is that I cannot eat potatoes because they are in the nightshade family. While I was in the honeymoon stage (gluten-free and thinking that was all that I needed) I did just fine with them, but I am reacting to them again. :sad: But if you can do potatoes, they are a good, crunchy treat. :smile:

Well I am sometimes known as the Potato Queen and yes, I do eat the Kettle Chips and have no problems. Very careful on the number though since they are sinfully fattening. :twisted:
