    Corn chips are obviously not made of slices of corn. I would imagine some people could be uncertain about potato chips being sliced potatoes, rather than some sort of potato-based product. Or just not particularly concerned about what any specific chip variety is made from.

    Also, who the fuck would know what a potato crate looks like? Did potatoes ever come in crates? They’ve come in plastic bags my entire life, and I’m only vaguely aware they came in burlap sacks prior to plastic being invented.

      Ah, like Pringles.

      Yeah the chips I ate most recently were Doritos. Hard to believe there is any remnant of vegetable in there at all, even though corn is the first ingredient listed.
