Rusty's Island Hand Made Maui Style
"They pack tons of potato punch," one tester said. But the most remarkable thing about these little chips is their hefty crunch.

Terra Blues
These stood out for more than just their (natural) bold blue color. Testers commented on the "great potato flavor," which came through thanks to the "minimal amount of salt."
To Buy: $3 for 5 ounces at grocery stores.

Utz Classic Russets Gourmet Dark
Testers liked that these chips were noticeably darker in color and more robust-tasting than most. The combination of russet potatoes and peanut oil results in a rich flavor with a slightly sweet aftertaste.
