Chips gesalzen - Spar

Austrian potato chips in quite big quantites and price friendlier than other chips of similar quality to be found also on this blog (see for example here). 

The potato chips in this bag are of a medium size, peeled, with a thin and flat cut. We find very few bent-over potatoes. Sunflower oil is used for cooking these lightweight, almost transparent, bright yellow colour crisps.

If we could change something to these chips, we would spice them with a bit less salt to better enjoy the crunch and taste of this Austrian potato snack.

Sunland Farm - Kelly's

The first review from Austria goes to the Sunland Farm Naturally Salted Chips, from Kelly's. 


It passed our review with honours. We had to read again and again at the ingredients list behind the bag to confirm that the excellent potato flavour of these chips is really authentic: no added flavours. 


Each chip has consistency and is crunchy hard: is it due to the Saratoga Springs original recipe? First, unpeeled Austrian potatoes go on a salty bath. Afterwards the chips are cooked on sunflower oil. Of course, the salt comes also from the Austrian Alps.

Special mention to another very well packed product: the Kelly's Airpack keeps the chips fresh and unbroken.
