chip bags

Crisp packet wrappers

Chip bags are the flexible foil-lined packages that hold potato chips and similar snacks.

The material keeps contents crisp but creates notoriously loud crinkling sounds when opened or handled: I tried to sneak chips during the movie but the chip bag gave me away.

The bags are also known for containing mostly air, protecting fragile contents during shipping.
