What it is
These are thin, uniformly shaped potato crisps known for their distinctive saddle shape. They are made from dehydrated processed potatoes, vegetable oil, and seasonings. The manufacturing process results in a consistent texture and flavor in every crisp. They are packaged in a distinctive tall, cylindrical can to protect their delicate structure and maintain freshness.
