Chips are literally Americans’ favorite junk food, 1.2 pounds are consumed each year in the US. Because of this fact I feel obligated to give some facts on your favorite snack.
- The whole half of the bag that is filled with air is nitrogen and used to preserve and protect chips.
- Michigan is the number 1 state for chipping production.
- 70% of Michigan grown potatoes become chips.
- Ireland created the first flavored chip.
- Pringle’s aren’t really potato chips but instead are made up of wheat, rice, corn, and potato flakes.
- Chips originally used to come with a packet of salt in them so you had the choice on whether or not you wanted salted frys.
