What You Should Know

You'd spot this bag in the supermarket snack aisle or grab it for a picnic, movie night, or casual get-together—it's a familiar, everyday chip from Whole Foods' 365 line. The vibe is simple, nostalgic indulgence with a crisp, satisfying crunch; despite the short ingredient list, the fried, packaged, ready-to-eat format and use of refined seed oils point to industrial processing typical of ultra-processed snacks.

Common Questions about Sea Salt Classic Potato Chips, 8 OZ

Well, 'healthy' can be pretty subjective! These chips are relatively low in sugar and have no artificial additives, which is a plus. However, they are higher in fat due to the vegetable oils, so if you're watching your fat intake, you might want to enjoy them in moderation.
