I don’t know how these things still sell.  They are way too salty, have very little flavor, and are only good if you have something to dip them in.  They are usually too greasy and very little effective crunch.  The kettle cooked versions improve the crunch drastically but still lack in all the other areas.

 

lays_salt_vinegar_potato_chips1Runner up- Salt and Vinegar Chips- seriously?  I feel like they came into existence off of a dare.  Someone bet another person he couldn’t eat a chip flavored with too much salt, and the pungent plain vinegar taste.  It’s not even a good/specialty vinegar.  The only reason people eat them is to “impress” other people that they can eat something disgusting

First of all there is no perfect chips.  While these still have the greasy aspect of the above mentioned chips, the flavor is incredible.  The perfect amount of spice, a little smoky, but fantastic Jalapeno pepper flavor in it.  Plus the crunch is almost too much which is perfect.  So with the only draw back being the need for a napkin to eat these chips, they are truly underrated and deserve be to served at every party from here on out.

doritos_blazin_buffalo__ranch21Runner up- Dorito’s Blazin’ Buffalo- Doritos are pretty tasty as is.  Not real greasy, great crunch, and most of the flavors are pretty darn good.  The best being Blazin Buffalo.  The spice is almost too much, and I don’t know a single person who doesn’t like the flavor of Buffalo Wing Sauce.  Fankly I don’t want to know a person who doesn’t like those flavors.

How dare you.

Salt & vinegar chips are more important than life itself.

You got that right.

I hate those salt and vinegar chips.

Also,

The kettle cooked chips are delicious. Regardless of flavor.

And I don’t know if you can consider them chips but,

These pretzels are making me thirsty!!

Corn chips with salsa! That is an underrated snack.

Sun chips? Baked Lays? Tostitos bite sized rounds? Come on! : )
