If you like potato chips, we’ve got the best and worst picks...


Potato chips are a favorite indulgence of snackers. 

If you can’t eat just one, The Daily Meal has found the best and worst, by the handful:

* Ruffles: More ridges, more calories. It’s the worst chip offender on the list. Ruffles only allows chip lovers to snack on 12 chips per 160-calorie serving. They're the #2 selling chip in America.

* Lays: The most popular chip. Though the calories are the same, Lay’s chips give you three more chips per serving at 160 calories per serving - 15 chips.

* Kettle Brand: Their calorie-to-chip ratio is better, but “kettle cooked” does not account for a healthier chip. 150 calories per serving 13 chips.

* Wise: Slightly better, Wise chips come in at 150 calories per 16 chips. These greasy little chips don’t beat out many of it’s partners by much. 

* Pringles: Duck face with them as much as you like, but you may want to refrain from eating too many of them. At 150 calories per 16 chips, once you "pop" a small can, you’ll eat all 20. A regular can has 80. That’s 750 calories for the 3rd most popular chip on the market.
