What's the big deal here? I find them to be a significant downgrade from regular chips.

Don't hand a candle to Pringles from my perspective
EXPERT take as always. I agree 100%.
Kettle chips were created by ad wizards for pores that think they are not pore.
Right up there with baked chips as being a horrible idea for chips.
Some flavors are better as kettle chips and some are worse. For instance, salt and vinegar are way better in kettle form, but sour cream and onion are way worse
And these are the only 2 options at most sandwich shops these days. I gotta stand around like an idiot deciding which option I hate the least.
Would crush some pringles, Fritos, or just some nice regular chips. Oh no though gotta choose between mesquite blue cheese kettle chips or baked lays. Fuggin hell.
The jalapeño kettle chips you can get at like firehouse and subway are pretty good. Agree that regular chips are by and large better though.
LAYS kettle cooked BBQ are the GOAT chip now. Could easily eat a whole bag in a sitting.
Good call. I go soup a lot more often these days take another buck off me. It's all starting to make sense.
Bruh you get kicked out of the kettle chip club for mentioning a non boutique brand like Lays. They're too crunchy iyam. I feel ripped off just looking at the packaging anyway.
Now the ones popping up at restaurants hot out the fryer with a nice light crunch and some aioli I can dig here and there. Still don't come anywhere close to some TOTS.
Hey man I respect you as a kettle chip enthusiast. All I ask is these sandwich shops don't completely shut us chip traditionalists out of options. And those pop chips gatalmighty don't get me started.
lack of chip choices at shops = communism
Whole lotta Chip baiting going on here
UTZ Original is probably my favorite chip. It's light, not oily, just the right amount of salt. Like to mix in some Fritos. Cool Ranch Doritos if I really want to zaz it up.
Did they change the recipe on the Sweet Heat? I had some the other day for the first time in years and they weren't as good as I remembered.I love these:
I don't know. Haven't had them in a long time.
ahh, Mr. Redenbacher knows me too wellStill not as good as
They definitely changed the sweet heat flavor... used to be the go to with Tuesday special from Byron's (now that they only give you chips as a side choice when doing their lunch special). Not anymore though... no heat at all. Just fork out the extra buck for some brunswick stew nowadays.
I like these, but I agree with yore general premise.
Spicy Creole Tomato also is le teets. I think Zapps makes my favorite Sour Cream and Onion chip as well. Maybe it was because I was raised on Zapp's that I like kettle chips so much.I like these, but I agree with yore general premise.
I like these. They're about the only thing I can eat while drinking beer at the same time. Beer and any typical beer drinking food gives me a major headache.
Just bought some non kettle chips in OP's honor.
You made a difference

OP is a do do do do doer of many things.

Sharks and barnacles.
Excellent. What you go with? I'm a little more adventurous when I'm snacking as opposed to pairing with a sandwich.
All the Zapps are great. I have been infatuated with them long before having any idea there was any difference with a "kettle chip" or even realized that was a thing at all.I like these, but I agree with yore general premise.
Baked chips are not even chips. It's like eating flavored paper.
