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. 

  1. The whole half of the bag that is filled with air is nitrogen and used to preserve and protect chips. 
  2. Michigan is the number 1 state for chipping production. 
  3. 70% of Michigan grown potatoes become chips. 
  4. Ireland created the first flavored chip. 
  5. Pringle’s aren’t really potato chips but instead are made up of wheat, rice, corn, and potato flakes. 
  6. 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.
