Choose according to your group’s taste preferences: sweet chilli, nacho cheese and paprika offer different options, but no one flavour is right for everyone. Doritos describes its Sweet Chilli Pepper as mild chilli with a hint of sweetness; this is a brand description, not a measure of heat. If you have specific dietary requirements, check the exact variant, and choose a bag size that suits what you want to serve and store.

Start with the flavour your group is most likely to enjoy. Then consider dietary requirements, how you’ll serve the crisps at the table and how much you want to open at once.
| What to consider | What should you look for? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Flavour and heat | Ask which flavour your group prefers; treat a brand’s description of heat as an indication, not a measurement. | If I’m catering for different tastes, I want to know in advance whether the group prefers chilli, cheese or paprika. Around 25% of consumers put flavour and preferred heat level first. |
| Dietary requirements and allergens | Check the exact variety, ingredients and relevant allergen information on the current packaging. | If someone has a dietary requirement or food allergy, I don’t want to rely on the flavour name. Around 25% of consumers check whether a product suits their diet first. |
| Convenience at the table | Decide whether you want to serve dips, and keep snacks and dips away from cards and playing pieces. | If I want to keep the gaming table tidy, I decide in advance where the crisps and any dips will go. Around 25% of consumers prioritise convenience at the table. |
| Bag size and leftovers | Compare the net weight and only open the flavours you plan to serve; don’t use stated portion counts to predict the size of your group. | If I want to top up without leaving lots of unnecessary open bags, I consider the quantity and how easy the crisps are to store. Around 25% of consumers plan quantities and leftovers first. |
The flavour name doesn’t tell you whether a variety is vegan, gluten-free or suitable for someone with an allergy. The features listed by Albert Heijn for AH Tortilla chips sweet chili don’t automatically apply to other varieties.
Check the exact product variety, ingredients and dietary information. If you have an allergy, also read any precautionary warnings on the packaging.
For its 200 g bag, Albert Heijn lists eight 25 g portions; for its 170 g Doritos bag, Albert Heijn lists an average of five to six 30 g portions. These different portion sizes don’t predict how much your group will eat during a game night.
Use the net weight and your group’s preferences to decide how much to put out. Don’t treat portions with different gram weights as equal quantities.
Opened crisps can lose their crunch. The Voedingscentrum recommends storing opened crisps in a kitchen cupboard for 2–5 days.
Start by opening what you want to serve, top up if needed and seal any leftovers securely. Also follow the storage instructions on the packaging.
