Popchips are a type of chip that is made using the method similar to air-popped popcorn. The result is a chip that is neither fried in oil, nor baked, but rather "popped" using heat and pressure. Using this method, the chips have half the fat of a typical potato chip with no trans fat, no saturated fats, no cholesterol and no preservatives. The chips are made using either potatoes, rice or corn as the base, with flavors matching their respective base ingredient.
