Our take
CleanPlate reviewKettle-style chips with a three-oil blend.
Kettle Studio Himalayan Pink Salt chips are fresh potatoes fried in a blend of sunflower, palmolein and cottonseed oils, with pink salt.
CleanPlate scores it DB3. The D for nutrition reflects low protein (3.9 g per 100 g). The B for ingredients reflects a short list held back by palmolein in the blend. The 3 for risk comes from energy density.
