Now that most potato chips have no trans fats, no cholesterol, and made with sunflower oil...why else would potato chips still be bad for us?

I'm referring to the traditional fried chips. Also, no need to mention sodium or glycemic issues.

Only 3 ingredients: potatoes, sunflower oil, and sea salt.

They are unhealthy for your digestion.
Well... I believe someone should ask the question ---what 'benefit' does one get from eating these potato chips?
I love all chips and they are 'Bad' for me...Let's face it We crave our comfort food. Good question...
Bring on the Chocolate...LOL

the ingredients contained in a food item is more important than the calories from carbohydrates or fats. the human body is simply not designed to ingest chemicals on a daily basis. our bodies are designed to function on all natural foods, not food items loaded with additives and preservatives.

not the chips that are baked. Like the ones served at Subway, they're low fat.
