If you want certified organic paprika crisps for your board game night, start by looking for the EU organic logo on the packaging. Then choose between plain and ridged crisps based on the shape you’d like to serve: according to Albert Heijn, both AH Biologisch varieties contain 125 g and list the same amount of salt per 100 g. Also check the current ingredients and stated number of portions before planning snacks for your group.
You want to be able to see whether paprika crisps are genuinely certified organic. Skal Biocontrole points to the EU organic logo for pre-packed organic consumer products in the EU. Also check the inspection code and country-of-origin statement on the packaging.
You want to work out how many crisps to put on the table. Albert Heijn lists both the plain and ridged AH Biologisch varieties in 125 g bags, with five stated portions of 25 g. Whether that’s enough for your group also depends on what other snacks you’re serving.
You want to check the ingredients, allergens and nutritional information for the crisps you choose. Don’t assume that an organic certification tells you anything about specific dietary requirements; check the current packaging for that.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who is it most important to? |
|---|---|---|
| Organic certification | Check the EU organic logo, inspection code and country-of-origin statement on the packaging. According to Skal Biocontrole, the logo is required on pre-packed organic consumer products in the EU. | I don’t want to judge a bag by its green appearance; I want to be able to tell whether the crisps are certified organic. This is the top priority for around 44% of consumers. |
| Bag size and crisp shape | Compare the net weight and stated portions. Albert Heijn lists both AH Biologisch varieties at 125 g and five portions of 25 g; the ridged variety has a different shape, not a larger bag. | When I’m putting snacks out for several players, I want to plan the quantity and make an informed choice between plain and ridged crisps. This is the main consideration for around 33% of consumers. |
| Label and nutritional information | Read the ingredients, highlighted allergens and any dietary claims on the current packaging. Compare the nutritional values of specific products per 100 g. | I want to know whether the ingredients suit my dietary preferences and compare the nutritional information for these particular crisps. Around 23% of consumers put checking the label first. |
Organic certification tells you something about how a product is produced, not how much salt, fat or energy a particular bag contains.
Compare the nutritional information and ingredients of the crisps you’re considering on the same basis, such as per 100 g.
On the product pages for Jumbo Biologische Paprika Chips and Smaakt Bio Potato Chips Paprika, Jumbo says these products are no longer part of its online range. So a product listing alone isn’t enough to plan your snacks around.
Check current availability before counting on either of these products for your board game night.
According to Albert Heijn, the plain and ridged AH Biologisch paprika crisps both contain 125 g and list 1.2 g of salt per 100 g. The ridged shape doesn’t mean there’s more in the bag or that the stated salt content is lower.
Choose between these two varieties based on the crisp shape you prefer, and check the current packaging.
Ingredients and product information can change. If someone has a relevant allergy or intolerance, the current packaging is therefore more important than a product page they looked at earlier.
Before serving, read the ingredients list and highlighted allergens on the bag.
