First, choose a specific flavour whose vegan credentials meet your requirements. Then check the net weight to decide whether one bag will be enough. A bigger bag isn’t automatically the best choice: match plain or seasoned chips to what you’re serving, and check allergen information separately.
You want to check the vegan status of the exact flavour, rather than assuming a flavour name or vegetarian label is a guarantee. The Dutch Association for Veganism advises checking the ingredients and product information.
You’re looking for chips to serve with a dip or use in nachos, and want a flavour that suits your plans. A claim that chips are suitable for dipping isn’t an independent test of how sturdy they are.
You compare the net weight with the amount you want to serve, rather than relying on the size of the pack alone.
First, check the vegan credentials of the exact variety. Then decide which quantity and flavour will suit your guests and what you’re serving.
| What to consider | What to look for | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Vegan status of the flavour | Check the vegan label and the full ingredients list for the exact variety. | When I choose chips for a vegan get-together, I want to check the status of that specific flavour; around 42% of consumers prioritise vegan credentials. |
| How much to share | Compare the net weight with how much you want to serve, and take any other snacks into account. | When I want enough chips for my guests without opening more bags than necessary, I look at the total quantity; around 33% of consumers prioritise how much there is to share. |
| Flavour for dips or snacking | Choose the specific flavour, and check dips separately for their ingredients and vegan label. | When I serve chips with a dip or as a snack, I want the flavour to work well with it; around 25% of consumers prioritise flavour combinations. |
Vegan credentials apply to the exact variety; a brand or flavour name doesn’t automatically tell you what’s in the bag. The Dutch Association for Veganism advises checking the ingredients and product information.
Read the full ingredients list and check whether the packaging carries a vegan label.
