Potato crisps, thick-cut

Thick-cut potato crisps are a ready-to-eat snack made from sliced potatoes. The figures here cover a mixture of plain and flavoured products. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat: per 100g, they contain 58g of carbohydrate and 28g of fat, including 12g of saturated fat. They also contain 1.3g of salt per 100g.

Carbohydrate and fat both supply energy, while fat also helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. The saturated fat and salt content are worth noting for people monitoring their intake. Values may vary between brands and flavours, so product labels can help when comparing crisps. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
