Trader Joe’s Kettle Cooked OLIVE OIL POTATO CHIPS

Trader Joe’s Kettle Cooked Olive Oil Potato Chips are a popular, crunchy potato chip snack.

INGREDIENTS : Potatoes. Olive Oil. Sea Salt

These are made from only three ingredients: Potatoes, Olive Oil, and Sea Salt. Even though we are not big eaters of potato chips, we found these to be incredibly tasty. Even addictive!

I would call these “gourmet” potato chips. The olive oil imparts great flavor.

The flavor profile of these is very simple and pure, as there is no other flavor added, just potatoes with a touch of salt, with the fruity flavor of the olive oil coming through. All of which makes these taste better than most standard chips.

These have amazing crunch. Like most chips described as “kettle cooked” these chips are cut thicker than regular potato chips such as “Lays” and the like. These have a great texture. Crunchy and delicious. These could probably hold up to most dips.

Now we did find these to be just the tiniest bit on the greasy side, so be aware of that. However since this is olive oil I imagine this is part of the appeal. Another plus is that some people want things made with “non-seed” oils. So this fits that bill, though the words “healthy potato chips” are an oxymoron!

As far as calories goes, the bag says 16 chips have about 140 calories.

I would buy these again.

A 7 oz bag goes for about $3.
