FORMULATION QUESTIONS
What makes CRUNCH THEORY chips crunchier than standard chips?
We engineer Theory 02 with a proprietary extra-thick cut and small-batch kettle cooking process. By selecting low-sugar, high-solids chipping potatoes and batch-frying them in high-oleic sunflower oil, we achieve a dense, structural curl that delivers a significantly louder, shatterproof acoustic bite that resists wilting or going stale.
How are the chips packaged to ensure peak crispness during shipping?
Each 5 oz stand-up pouch is manufactured with heavy-gauge, multi-layer metalized barrier film that blocks light, humidity, and oxygen. Immediately after tumble seasoning, pouches are flushed with food-grade nitrogen to eliminate residual oxygen below two percent before being packed in heavy-duty corrugated shipping cartons to protect every chip.
Why does Theory 02 use only three minimalist ingredients?
We believe true culinary quality demands radical ingredient transparency without unnecessary fillers or artificial powders. Theory 02 relies exclusively on American-grown non-GMO potatoes, heart-healthy high-oleic sunflower oil, and pure mineral sea salt. This disciplined formulation highlights the natural caramelized sugars of the potato while providing an exceptionally clean, non-greasy finish.
