Baked Cheddar & Sour Cream

What is it?

Ridged potato crisps baked instead of fried, these come in the familiar cheddar and sour cream seasoning from Ruffles, with 65 percent less fat than regular chips. The pieces are thinner and lighter than the fried version, though the shallow ridges are still there to catch seasoning. Compared with the classic bagged line, the baked format shifts the texture toward a cleaner snap rather than a heavy crunch. You get potato, cheddar, sour cream, and the usual salt-forward seasoning blend, all built on a base that’s meant to be crisp without the extra oil from frying.
