    How about kale chips? I haven't had them yet, but they're highly recommended by some of my low-fat-consuming friends!

    I like the Ruffles Light Fat Free ones - they do have Olestra in them but taste much better than the baked ones to me and you get about 15 chips for 80 calories.

    All chips are bad!!! I say this as my boyfriend is also a sales rep for Frito Lay and I work hard to keep my house chip free. But Pop chips dont seem so bad if you are craving something salty and chip like. I think they are 180 calaroies for 30 chips or something.

    I eat terra exotic veggie chips. The sweet potato ones are especially good and they don't taste like the dirt like some veggie chips do.

    I really like flavored rice crackers - try them with a low fat dip - pretty satisfying

    I love PopChips!
    Trader Joes has a version called Popped Chips- just as good.

    I also like Veggie Straws. There are many different brands. You can have about 40 of them for 140 cals.

    I skip chips now and eat Pretzel Crisps! So good! The original ones are 110 calories, 0 grams of fat for 11. I will eat them with a light wedge of Laughing Cow Cheese. I also like the Buffalo Wing Pretzel Crisps! 110 calories, 1.5 grams of fat for 10.

    I'm sure there are some baked, tasteless chips out there that are lower calorie, but when I eat chips I generally get the All Natural Cheetoes, organic corn chips, or Sun Chips because overal they aren't too high calorie or too unhealthy and they taste good.

    I try not to eat any chips, otherwise I will go crazy piggy on them. If I want crunch, I eat a few nuts.

    I gave up chips altogether. They are addicting and just too high in cabs even if you get the baked ones. I can't eat just a few, so what's the point. I think that all picking food is just suicide for us. If you can take a small measured portion and stop at that, I am really impressed. I'm better to snack on air popped popcorn, you can get more mileage out of the less calories.

    I also enjoy pop chips but I would recommend Glenny's soy crisps. They're high in protein and delicious. A whole bag has 140 calories and they have a variety of flavors including ranch, bbq, cheese, salt and pepper, apple cinnamon and caramel.

    I like nori -I have some prepackaged at 10 calories a pack for 10 pieces in the pack...they are teriyaki flavored and really good. Plus, if you do splurge and eat the whole bag, it's still 100 calories or less!!!! I got them from Whole Foods...

    I have heard from a dr to check your labels because most everything that says low fat or reduced fat increases your chance of colon cancer by 50%! Its because the "fillers" they use change the natural chemicals in your body. But pop chips are great even though I can't have them yet also look at all the organic brands and try different ones that strike your interest.

    Baked Kettle chips! They LOOK like a real potato chip not a formed fake shape. They are slices of potatoes! The bbq flavor is my favorite and a serving size is 20 chips. 120 cals, 3g total fat!

    Late July organic sea salt multi-grain chips. 13 chips = 120 cals & they're good. =)

    Pop chips, Trader Joes Salt and Pepper Rice Crisps (sturdy enough for a hummus or cheese and about 38 crackers in a serving), snikkidy (sp?) corn and potato 'fries', trader joes 'lentil curls' (can't remember the real name, but they're twisty curls made with lentils, in the chip section).

    I really like the salt and pepper rice crisps right now.

    Oh, and as always, using a thin mandolin slicer to make your own. I need to try it with sweet potato some time. I've never made any to 'save' though - it's always been 'make and eat' on the homemade chips.
