Choose Lay's Oven Baked Natural if you're looking for a plain flavour for the canteen with a clear reduced-fat claim: according to Albert Heijn, it contains 13 g of fat per 100 g and 50% less fat than regular potato crisps. AH Ribbelchips naturel minder vet contains 20 g of fat per 100 g, according to Albert Heijn; its 35% less fat claim compares these crisps with regular AH Ribbelchips naturel.

Want to compare a specific fat value with the claim for a plain flavour? Albert Heijn lists 13 g of fat per 100 g for Lay's Oven Baked Natural, and says it contains 50% less fat than regular potato crisps. Compare other flavours using their own labels.

Students need clear information about the allergens in their chosen flavour. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority states that allergens must be listed on the label of prepacked products; for food served without its original packaging, this information must be made available in another way before purchase.
First compare the fat and salt per 100 g for the specific flavour. Then make sure allergen information is available for the way you plan to serve the crisps, and check that the product can be reordered.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who is this most important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Fat content | Check the fat value per 100 g for your chosen flavour and see what a reduced-fat claim is being compared with. | If reducing fat is my main reason for choosing, I want to compare the actual values without treating different reference products as the same. Around 42% of consumers give this need top priority. |
| Salt and allergens | Compare salt per 100 g and per planned serving; check the ingredients and how allergen information will be available before purchase. | If I serve crisps without their original packaging, I need to be able to tell students which allergens their chosen flavour contains. For around 33% of consumers, this information comes first. |
| Availability to order | Check the exact flavour and pack size before making it a regular canteen item. | For a lunch menu I want to repeat, I need a product whose current availability I can check. This reliability is the main concern for around 25% of consumers. |
A reduced-fat claim doesn't tell you how much salt a crisp flavour contains. Albert Heijn lists 0.85 g of salt per 100 g for Lay's Oven Baked Natural and 0.9 g per 100 g for AH Ribbelchips naturel minder vet.
Compare the fat and salt values per 100 g, and decide what size serving you'll offer in the canteen.
Lay's Oven Baked compares its fat content with regular potato crisps. The claim for AH Ribbelchips naturel minder vet refers to regular AH Ribbelchips naturel. The percentages therefore aren't a direct comparison between these two products.
For the specific plain flavours, also compare the stated grams of fat per 100 g.
According to Albert Heijn, AH Ribbelchips sour cream & onion minder vet contains milk and lactose. If you serve it without its original packaging, allergen information must still be available before purchase, says the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority.
Check the packaging for your chosen flavour and make sure students can access the relevant allergen information before purchase.
