Lay's Bar-B-Q Flavoured Potato Crisps

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 9 ingredients to avoid

Lay's Bar-B-Q Flavoured Potato Crisps scores 5/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Lay's Bar-B-Q Flavoured Potato Crisps lists 21 ingredients, starting with Dehydrated Potatoes, Vegetable Oil, Corn Maltodextrin, Onion Powder and Monosodium Glutamate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Lay's Bar-B-Q Flavoured Potato Crisps scores worse than most chips & crisps we have scored. A higher-scoring option in chips & crisps is Late July Thin & Crispy Organic Blue Corn Tortilla Chips at 95/100.
