>it's just potatoes fried in oil, bro

Why can't the ingredients just be potatoes, salt, lard or something

[Anonymous No.19219279]

you purposely picked up a bag of seasoned potato chips even though there are plain unflavored, unseasoned potato chips right next to it. waste of a thread. go fuck yourself

[Anonymous No.19219280]

Because they wouldn't sell - they started that way, then someone did that and added something, then it became a war.

[Anonymous No.19219286]

short answer: because you like these better

long answer: you're a fucking idiot

there is nothing stopping you from making chips yourself, but instead of complaining about not being able to find a good recipe you come here to complain about a product that you opt into bringing into your life--nobody is forcing you to eat the chips, just like nobody is forcing you to be annoying on the internet
this is not a good thread, there is a very specific answer to your question so it's not like there's anything to debate
fuck off

I like how they can't even decide which oil they've fried it in. That's pretty great.
Love the usual dextrose in there for absolutely no reason and shoutout to my main boi maltodextrin too, 'cause sometimes you just need some more carbs with ur carbs bro.
Anyway the rest is pretty easy, seasoning. Onion powder, paprika, salt, yeast.
The big shit you can really complain about is "natural hickory smoke flavor", extractives of paprika, artificial flavor, dextrose and "spices". Some of that being some real mystery meat shit; like the oil they can't be bothered to identify.

The real gotcha is that these products are so low quality & mass produced that they can't even stick to which oil they're using. When you go to cook something, you just pick up any old oil? Fuck it, gonna use coconut oil today, maybe sunflower tomorrow. No, you wouldn't.
These aren't quality products and they're only there to satiate the low income masses. Complaining about it while saying nothing at all is hollow.

FDA ingredients listing is easily the most autistic in the world and makes amerislop look far worse than it is. I doubt that huge ass diatribe about oils in parenthesis would have to be mentioned in any other country and it'd just say vegetable oil.

Seed oils are the one harmful ingredient in there, and an easily replaced one too. All the rest is harmless.

The only thing that makes potato chips really unhealthy are the seed oils.
>But muh salt

Yeah, it's basically empty calories. Tons of foods are. If you get enough micros and dont overdo the total calories it's fine.
>>19219848
The market for different food oils is volatile and all the oils have basically the same properties anyway. It's a cost saving measure, but picking an exact oil or proportion and sticking to it wouldn't make it any better.

Probably not even in the top twenty. The only reason they're unhealthy is because you're eating a whole bag of them at once.

Unironically contained.
Think about it: A calf has to live ENTIRELY on milk. If milk didn't contain (almost) everything you need, the calf wouldn't grow healthy.
Nutritionists examined the claim that 19th century irish lived entirely on potatoes and milk, and it's not entirely possible or true: You run into shortages of vitamin e and molybdenum, which are contained in oats, also eaten (in smaller quantities) by the irish.

It seems like you have a strong opinion about the ingredients and quality of certain food products. While it is true that some mass-produced food products may contain low-quality ingredients or additives, it's also important to keep in mind that different people have different dietary needs and preferences.

Furthermore, it's not uncommon for food manufacturers to use different types of oil or spices depending on availability, price, or taste. This doesn't necessarily mean that the product is of low quality or that the manufacturer is being dishonest.

That being said, it's always a good idea to read the ingredients list and nutrition label before purchasing a food product, especially if you have dietary restrictions or concerns. This can help you make informed decisions about what you eat and how it fits into your overall diet.

Most refined vegetable oils are interchangeable.
Factories order whatever is cheapest on the market at the time.
Dextrose and maltodextrin are typically used as ways to keep salt and seasonings from clumping due to humidity. They're made from corn starch or something similar most of the time, so they're effective anti-caking substances.

The issue isn't so much cutting cost as it is about the health effects of the oil itself. The polcels who cry wolf at seed oils and their supposed ill effects on health are chugging down gallons of it instead of consuming reasonably like if you were one Mediterranean diet.

YOU WOULDN'T GO AHEAD AND CONSUME SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD YOU, YOU STUPID SON OF A BITCH!

You can't really escape it anymore, it's harder and harder to find lard/drippings that hasn't been altered. 'cause it's better to sell it wrapped, ez-er for the mass market, better have it solid. Nobody would go buying their drippings in chilled tubs, there's the chance you could buy rancid drippings.
-and that's how and why your fried in lard consumer chips are still cooked in liquid shit, albeit liquid shit that's a bit more solid at room temperature mind you.
