Lime on a corn chip has an argument from tradition behind it, since a squeeze of lime over tortilla chips is standard across Mexican cooking. The confusion worth avoiding is that the lime used to nixtamalise corn is the mineral kind, calcium hydroxide, and has nothing at all to do with the fruit. Lime brings aromatic oils from the peel as well as acid, and that separates it from a straight sour seasoning. Those oils are also the fragile part. What's on the chip is a powder and not juice, since anything wet would soften it, so what lands is the sharpness more than the aroma. 230g, the same thicker chip as the rest of the Dippers line.
