Verdict
Bag
This packaging is exactly the same as the Totally Natural Flavor, but with orange writing explaining that there is 60% Less Sodium. Ordinarily we would compare Chips bag designs generally, but this only needs to be compared to the Totally Natural version because firstly it begs the question: Why have the Totally natural version at all? And maybe a lighter blue, or white for a bag. But mostly we need to ask why Sodium? Why not write 'Salt'? The Chips are being sold to consumers not scientists.
Crunch
These were very crunchy; more so than their colleague, the Totally Natural. They also seemed a little less greasy.
Texture
These were virtually the same as the Totally Natural Chips, which is perhaps understandable. Although they did seem to be a little lighter in color - this could be because we had them on a sunny day, but who knows. There were a few overly greasy Chips that left flakes of Chip on fingers, but aside from some curly and folded Chips they were consistent throughout the bag.
Taste
Warning - This write up is exactly the same as the Totally Natural write Up: The Nose Plunge Test, which features a quick snort of aroma as soon as the bag is opened, featured a rich potato smell. This certainly fits into the Totally natural claim, and the flavor held its own in that arena as well - the Chips did taste free of chemicals, flavorings and spices. There was still a hint of salt - presumably from the potato; the dominant flavor was a well oiled plain Chip.
