Potato chips are thinly sliced potatoes that are deep-fried, baked, or air-fried until crisp and often seasoned with salt or various flavorings. Originating from the United States in the mid-19th century, they are now a globally popular snack enjoyed across many cuisines. Typically made with potatoes, vegetable oil, and seasoning, their nutritional profile includes carbohydrates, some potassium, and dietary fiber. However, they can also be high in unhealthy fats, excessive sodium, and calories, making them best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. While plain potato chips may offer small amounts of nutrients like potassium, flavored varieties can include additives and preservatives. For a healthier option, baked or air-fried versions often offer reduced fat content while retaining the classic crispy texture.
