potato chips

Salty bagged snack

Potato chips are thin slices of potato fried or baked until crisp, typically salted and eaten as a snack.

In British English, these are called crisps, while "chips" refers to what Americans call french fries.

Potato chips come in countless flavors: barbecue chips, sour cream and onion, salt and vinegar.

A single chip is rarely enough.
