Clancy's Wavy Potato Chips — TREAT

Munch or Dump rates Clancy's Wavy Potato Chips by Clancy's TREAT — score 45/90.

Three real ingredients: potatoes, frying oil, and salt. There is nothing engineered here, but it is still deep-fried starch carrying about 35 grams of fat per 100 grams. Honest indulgence, not an everyday food.

Why this verdict

• Short, clean ingredient list of just potatoes, oil, and salt
• No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives
• Deep-fried in refined vegetable oil, driving high fat and calorie density
• Snack you reach for by the handful, not a nutritional contribution

Ingredients (5)

• potatoes (safe) — Whole-food base; the entire chip is essentially sliced potato.
• corn oil (moderate) — Refined frying oil; contributes to the high fat load.
• Sunflower Oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil; fine in the modest amounts used here.
• Cottonseed oil (moderate) — A cheaper refined oil that may be used in the blend.
• Salt (moderate) — Main sodium source; keep an eye on it if you use large amounts.
