Croccante - San Carlo

San Carlo is going big presenting huge potatoes with a crinkle cut in his Croccante edition. 

We remark the beauty of a big and thick slice of potato, elegantly ondulated, as it can't be otherwise for a product coming from the fashion capital Milano. And as long as the potato chip is, it crunches from the begining till the end. We found the chips slightly dry,  perhaps due to the oil mix or proportion (palm and sunflower oil).

Features:
The biggest potato crisps is	11.5 cm long
and has a thickness of	3.3 mm *
Crunchiness:	91 dB
Other features:	Big size potato slices, thick but light.
Origin:
Country, region	Italy, Milan
We got them from	a glamper in Italy.
Price / gram	1.99 € / 180 g

* Thickness measured between top of the wave and bottom of the valley in the biggest chip we found.

Classica - San Carlo

Back in 1936, Francesco Vitaloni opened the "Rosticceria San Carlo" in Milano roasting a bit of everything: from chicken to fish, from beef to vegetables. Soon a specility got well known: their "patatine croccanti" or crunchy chips, The only problem was that only 20 kilos were produced.

Today, San Carlo processes tons of snacks with selected potatoes from known italian farmers, keeping its tradition and simplicity both in the final product as well as in its packaging.

According to the packaging, to bake the Classica San Carlo chips, Sanoil is used: a mixture of unspecified vegetable oils with an alleged reduciton of fat. The flavour of the chips is good, with a slight toast scent in every bite. Despite the small bag, the chips are reasonably big and kept unbroken. For the seasoning, San Carlo Classica uses iodized salt in very correct quantities.

The biggest potato crisps is	8 cm long
and has a thickness of	0.94 mm
Crunchiness:	89 dB
Other features:	Big chips, golden yellow colour.
