definitely a trick question.

we had four "dips" as part of our appetizers during thanksgiving......ranch, broccoli, hummus, and onion. the amount of chips, bugles, and crackers consumed was quite a lot.

That's why I have to buy those variety paks that have all those small bags. Perfect portion control. Eat one small bag and I'm done. If not, I would sit down and eat an entire large bag while watching television and not realize it until the bag was empty. Hubbie is the same way.

@CoffeeNut A small bag is considered an appetizer in many homes...you have great discipline!.

The sad part is, I don't even like potato chips and I could still eat a whole bag.

I think they smell disgusting when you first open the bag. G-A-G.

Now there are experts on potato chips? No one ever says who these people are suppose to be. Nutritionists, dieticians, chefs? I don't go for the whole expert thing as anyone can call themself an expert and people will believe it.

@teganslaw It's a joke-the word "experts" indicates nobody real.

I buy the variety pack, too, but there are mostly Doritos. You need to supplement that with a couple party-size bags of potato chips 😊

Ice cream is my downfall but I will admit to eating more than 10 chips at a time.

Besides, the chips are not all equal in size so a few small chips equal how many compared to the larger chips in the bag?? Would 3 small chips be the same as one large chip or would 3 large chips break down to 9 small chips?

If a woodchuck could chuck wood how much wood would the woodchuck chuck???

We don't eat chips often but when we do..........we do not count.

@teganslaw

Portion size and nutritional contents are federally mandated on one serving size of every food item. To be a serving, there must be enough of the item for the food group it belongs to.

A potato chip is potato, fat, salt, and additives. Each group has to be listed.
