Pros: these taste wonderful, very crunchy, great taste!
Cons: too expensive :(

I would have given this a 10 if it only cost 1.00. but at almost 2.00 its a rare treat. I dont use them as a chip, tho i might if i made nachos. I took the sour cream and onion ones and used them like a cracker...i love them with tuna or just plain old cheese and crackers. No soy taste. Wonderful flavor!

Pros: good taste & crunchy
Cons: odd texture

These had a pretty good taste. I had the Nacho flavor. I noticed an odd texture while swallowing. Too expensive for the amount you get.

Pros: I LOVE the sour cream and onion. Great taste and texture. No aftertaste at all.
Cons: None

I have tried the sour cream and onion and the nacho flavor. The sour cream and onion was by far the best, but the nacho flavor was not too bad. This product is a great substitute for chips and very satisfying.

Pros: Crunchy
Cons: Price for Amount

I have tried all of these and love to have them with a sandwich for lunch. Great low-carb alternative just spendy as usual. I will buy these again, like the keto brand tortilla chips better.

Pros: crunch
Cons:

These taste better when loaded with cream cheese. The crunch is very satisfying, but the flavor still needs work.

Pros: Great crunch and initial flavour
Cons: High Cost/Addictive

I love the crunch and the taste at first but the taste seems to weaken after the first few chews.
Very addictive and much too expensive, but for those that can afford it......its worth it!

Pros: Great, if you like the taste of cardboard.
Cons: No flavor; no taste.

I can't believe so many people recommended these chips - each to his own, I guess. I was really excited when I found them and thought I would finally have some chips with my low-carb sandwich. But, unfortunately, they taste very similar to cardboard and are very, very hard and crunchy. I'll pass on these.

Pros: crunchy, salty, like a real
Cons: like above, strange aftertaste upon swallowing

I have only tried the plain ones..i thought they were great..if you use them with salsa the aftertaste is gone, then they are sinful...

Pros: crunch, taste
Cons: price

Very good taste and texture. Pricey, but alot of things are on this WOE. It is worth the money to have some chips once and a while.

Pros:
Cons: taste, cost

At first bite I thought these were great, but by bite 3 I was getting grossed out. The texture wasn't great, nor the flavour the more you ate (I tried nacho) but I am someone who can live without chips anyways.

Pros: great for eating salsa
Cons:

I take a bag of these to Mexican restaurants and eat the salsa with the regular kind. I don't over do it so the bag lasts me a few times.

Pros: Good taste
Cons: none!

Great crunchiness, if that's what you're looking for. I had the nacho flavor and it was pretty decent (I've had WORSE!). Good flavor, I didn't notice an aftertaste. Would buy again.

Pros: err... crunch?
Cons: Break your teeth, no flavor, expensive, not worth it

Umm... gross. that's all I can say. I guess maybe if you tried it as a cracker, but still.. it's .. just not right

Pros: Crunchy, good taste
Cons: Really expensive, chalky aftertaste

I had to drink a sip of water after each bite to get it down. Really good taste though. Atkins could work on the texture a bit.

Pros: pleasant chip-like taste
Cons: too hard

These are a pretty good substitute for regular potato chips. I did find them too crunchy. I got them on sale for 59 cents, wouldn't buy them at regular price but I may buy them if I catch them on sale again.

Pros: couldn't find one
Cons: offensive odor, lack of flavor

Bought a box of the nacho flavor, thinking even if they weren't doritos, they couldn't be too bad. Opened a bag in the car, to everyone's chagrin. They smelled like the air out of tires. No flavor at all, but the lingering odor in the mouth is lethal. Brought the remainder of the bag to work just to let other lowcarbers try them. No one could get past the smell, but in a train-wreck-like fascination people tried them just for the heck of it. ew.

Pros:
Cons: couldn't handle the taste

I was craving chips, so I figured that these would have to be better than nothing. I was wrong and couldn't make it past a couple and threw the bag out.

Pros: Yummy and crispy
Cons: carb count is a little high

I bought Nacho, BBQ and plain. The nacho is really good (9), the BBQ is okay (7) and the plain are great as crackers for tuna salad etc. I really like them. They are very crunchy... but I like that. The only bad part is that 8 carbs per bag (4 net) they are a little spendy on daily carbs. I bought several packs since the price was low and put them in the freezer to be less tempting.

Pros: nice thick crunch
Cons: nacho cheese was not tasty

I realy liked the sourcream, the nacho ones went in the trash. They were horriable, the sour cream ones pared nicely with tuna and it felt like tuna and crackers befrore the low carb days. When they go on sale at 10 for $10.00 they are worth it if not the bag is way to small for the money.

Pros: If you like pringles.....this will do
Cons: that sticky, dry, soy, thick....ness?

think kettle style chips meet pringles....the sour cream was good enough, I enjoyed a bag with a diet pepsi! (just like old times)the other 5 of the 6 pack are still in the cupboard.

Pros:
Cons: Thick and chewy

I tried the barbeque and didn't like them at all. They were chewy-like and not very chip-like.

Pros: great crunch
Cons: pricey and kinda bland

Doesnt satisfy the need for crunchy when the taste is bland, so be sure to use it as a 'dipper'

Pros: eases potato chip craving
Cons: not much for the price and had a very strange texture

If you are cutting your carbs and have not had real chips in forever, this product is a dream come true. The Sour Cream and Onion was the best in my opinion. My family knew right away that they were low carb and refused to finish the bag.(more for me!!!) I will buy this product again, but only if I don't find something better.
