Chips, often referred to as potato chips or crisps, are thinly sliced potatoes that are fried or baked to produce a crunchy snack. Originally popularized in the United States in the mid-19th century, chips have grown to become a global favorite across cuisines. Typically, they contain potatoes, oil, and salt, with variations including spices, cheese, or flavored seasonings. While chips offer a satisfying texture and savory taste, they are often high in calories, sodium, and fat due to the frying process and added flavorings. Some chips may also contain preservatives. On the healthier side, baked chips or alternatives made from vegetables like kale or sweet potatoes can provide a lower-fat choice with additional nutrients. Chips can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, but excessive consumption may contribute to health concerns like weight gain or high blood pressure due to their processed nature.
