It has been a long time since I have bought potato chips, but I always
thought they were pretty expensive for what you get. They buy potatoes
in such quantities that they don't pay much for them and there is
probably only one potato in a bag. Sure, there is the cost of the
equipment, the oil, packaging, shipping etc, but there is a hell of a
big park-up on those things. Those little ones they make for Halloween
...... there's like 6 chips in one of them.
