What You Should Know

You’d spot this bag in the chip aisle or reach for it when loading up a snack stash for movie night, tailgates, or a casual get-together. It reads as a slightly elevated, indulgent take on a classic — crunchy, salty comfort with a healthier-sounding avocado oil twist. The ingredient list and ready-to-eat format point to industrial processing (fried/crisp texture from oils, added seasonings and flavor extracts) typical of ultraprocessed snacks.
