Does anybody know if kettle chips are safe to eat?
They are hand cooked, they are suitable for vegetarians apparently and gluten free. I am a huge crisps fan and am a little bit unsureof what i can eat? There seems to be less choice here in the UK!!!!

as they're still fried, they're too high in fat for ibs - you could potentially handle a few (a very few) after a safe meal, but even that could be too much. baked chips are a safer bet - some people don't handle them well, but some really do.

Be sure to check the fat content. If they are high in fat DO NOT eat them on an empty stomach or without some sort of SF base. IT's best to avoid high-fat chips, but now that I'm stable I can enjoy a small handful of them with a meal that's high in SF and low in fat.

One of my frined working for a company invented these and the company took them as their own since he was working for them. 
He is in the process soon of inventing some new ones.

Excellent! Some new chips! Ask him to invent something IBS safe.
I'm from Oregon too, Willamette Valley, so I think I might know the company you're speaking of?

I don't know if you can get this variety in the UK...but I eat these quite often. They are low fat and safe soluble fiber. Kettle Chips

These are the ones I get sometimes. I can't tell if they are the same as Beth's with just different packaging.  Anyway, I've found them at Whole Foods and my local regular grocery store.

I couldn't find the link on the web, so thought it was just new packaging. But, no, I eat these too. I find them at Trader Joes, Jewel, Cub foods, or Whole foods and also Wild Oats.

Hi Tam, know what you mean about less choice in the UK, not too sure about Kettle chips but might be able to help on the crisps front! Boots shapers do some low fat crisps that I've never had problems with, just watch out for the ones with dairy in them, marks and spencers do there count on us pretzels, and I really like the Mr potatoe head ready salted ones by Walkers, Yum! Hope that helps.

Thanks! I'll be on the look out for the new packaging and no it is really the same product. Otherwise, I would be searching all over for the "brown" bag and not finding it!
thanks again, Melissa!

I went to buy these today...and found the new packaging. However, they also changed the nutrition infor. They used to have 1.5 grams of fat per serving and the new product has 3 grams per same amount (1 oz).  Why couldn't they just give it a new package? Why'd they have to go and add more fat. I have a problem with fats...so not sure it is okay to have these new chips.
Do you guys think these are still okay? I hate that they did this. I liked them because they didn't have all the extra ingredients added that the Baked Layss contain.

Why do companies continually try to fix things that ain't broke?!?!
Personally, I know I'd be okay with them. I've had the Baked Ruffles which are 3 grams also and had no problems. I usually have them with a sandwich though too, so that brings my overall fat per meal down. But still, it is nice to have them lower in fat.
