These Pop Chips bill themselves as junk food without the junk.
I have yet to try them, but I almost fell over when I saw them in the work vending machines for $1.75. Almost two bucks for a tiny bag of chips? And they wonder why people go for the junk?

I've seen those in the vending machines in 18...it's more like $1.75 for a tiny bag of air. Trader Joe's sells the exact same thing, if you want to try them without a mortgage refi...
OMG, they're SO good. Also, the company has incredibly responsive customer service. They're also available at Whole Foods - you should give them a try. I adore them. Especially the pepper flavor.
These sorts of chips are pretty good, think Munchos only a bit more dense and much less oily.
The name brands are expensive though. I have to agree with Ruth that Trader Joes is the way to go. They have the same style popped chips for just a buck or two per full sized bag.
I just saw these a couple of days ago at the 99 cent store. I guess I should have bought them since they're supposedly expensive.
