I was craving nachos, so I bought these. I don't think they make the smaller bags. I thought I could do it, nope. No portion control! I am never bringing these into my house again!!!

    I have the same issue. I bought no salt seasoning and cook 1/2 of a josephs wrap in the toaster oven. I like the taste better and feel better after and the next day now because its not packed with oil.

    I just bought some nacho chips myself, since I found delicious mango and lime salsa at Safeway (it's Safeway brand is its AMAZING. Pretty low in calories too). Anyway, I got a bowl and counted out the number of chips in a serving. Then I put the bag back on the top shelf and sat down on the couch with my bowl of chips and salsa. That way I only ate one serving and I was done. It worked quite well. Or split the bag up into ziplock baggies with one serving each. That way you just grab a baggie instead the whole bag of chips.

    I haven't developed that self control yet. When I buy a big bag I eat and eat and even when I pour it into a bowl I'll go back...wheras if I buy like 100 calorie packs I will only eat one because when you think of it as "I ate 2 bags of chips!" it just feels worse...That's why I'm not allowed to have chips atm lol
  • I totally have the same problem! Anything chip-like stands no chance around me! :laugh: I stick to popcorn now, for my salty crunchy snacks -- It's much safer!
