A first-hand review of Lay's Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips. The first taste is the sourness of vinegar, and as you bite into them, the sweetness and umami of the potato gradually spreads.

Lay's Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips

The "Lay's" brand potato chips are well-known in American supermarkets. In Japan, you can find them in the imported confectionery section of large supermarkets.


The bright blue package contains a large 135g (4.76oz) bag. This time, I bought it at KALDI for a sale price of 178 yen (tax included) due to its near expiration date. Usually, I imagine they are sold for about 400-500 yen, so quite a bargain! In addition to "Salt & Vinegar," there are many other flavors, including "Classic" and "Sour Cream Onion" (only the "Salt & Vinegar" was on sale).

I tried Lays Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips.

The texture is more crunchy than crispy. The texture is thin, but you can enjoy the firmness of a hard-baked product. The texture is soft and each piece has its own presence.


The taste starts with the sourness of the vinegar, and as you bite into it, the sweetness and umami of the potato gradually spreads. You can enjoy the freshness, sweetness and umami alternately, and you will not be able to stop. It is more addictive than simple salt...!


The potato chips are a perfect combination of the seasoning and the ingredient potatoes. If you see them in stores, please pick them up.
