Late Night Snack Attack Sorted

Reading the label, these sweet chilli corn chips pack a 3g sugar hit per 100g, which might explain that subtle sweet kick alongside the heat. The texture seems sturdy, likely from that 69% maize content, perfect for scooping. I'd stash these in my desk drawer for a 3 PM slump when I need a savory crunch to wake up my brain. The trade-off is the palm fruit oil and TBHQ antioxidant on the list; some people prefer to avoid those for personal reasons. They score a 9.7, suggesting they deliver on flavor expectations, but I'd be mindful of the hydrolysed soya if you're sensitive.

With just potatoes, oil, and salt, these Ruffles feel like a straightforward choice, and the 3g sugar per 100g is negligible. The score of 9.7 hints they nail that familiar, greasy potato taste. I imagine tossing the party-size bag into the trunk for a spontaneous beach day where messy fingers are part of the fun. The trade-off is definitely the salt and oil load; it's heavy on the palate and leaves your hands shiny. If you're watching sodium, this might not be your go-to, but for pure, unpretentious snacking, the simplicity works.

These Fiesta tortilla chips show 0g sugar and a stellar 9.9 score, suggesting a clean, corn-forward profile. The ingredients list is short—corn, oil, sea salt—which feels reliable for a label reader like me. I'd grab these for a girls' night with guac, where the goal is scooping without the chip crumbling mid-air. The trade-off is the generic 'vegetable oil' blend; it keeps costs down but lacks the premium feel of olive oil. They might taste a bit dry on their own, but that's what dips are for. Solid value for a clean crunch.

Chickpea flour is the star here, with 0g sugar and a 9.9 score, pointing to a potentially filling snack. The pink Himalayan salt adds a touch of mineral vibe, though the texture from chickpea and rice flour might be denser than standard chips. I'd throw a bag in my gym bag for post-workout refueling when I want something savory over sweet. The trade-off is the potential allergen warning for peanuts and tree nuts, which is a real concern for shared spaces. It's pricier than potato chips, but the chickpea base offers a different nutritional angle.

The ingredients list here is cut off as 'Ingredients updating...', so I can't fully assess what's inside, despite the 0g sugar and 9.9 score. It's frustrating for a label reader who prioritizes transparency. I'd only consider this if I had no other options, perhaps for a quick pantry backup during a busy week. The trade-off is the uncertainty; without the full list, I can't verify oils or additives. It might be great, but until they finish updating, it's a gamble on texture and taste. I'd wait for the full details before committing.
