About Snacks, corn-based, extruded, chips, plain
Plain extruded corn chips are essentially ground corn, oil, and salt, shaped under pressure and fried until they puff and crisp. Fat dominates, coming from the frying oil, and the corn base contributes some fiber - more than potato chips, actually. Protein is modest, carbs are high. These are unambiguously a snack food, not a nutritional product, but the ingredient list is short and recognizable. Portion size matters more here than with most snacks given the calorie density.
