As my memory, Chips/Crisps & Tacos are both available there, of course, there are more types of crisps except those flavors; thick-cut with wave-shape, hand cooked, reduced fat, full flavored, mixed flavors package. Small package around 45g with the cost of 15HKD around, and normal package of 150g is in the range of 28-40HKD.The special point of those chips to me is the special flavors and ingredients.

The special point of those chips to me is the special flavors and ingredients. I just bought 3 packages for comparison; one normal package of reduced fat crisps and 2 of hand cooked ones. The flavors are 4 Cheeses & Red Onion, Sea Salt & Balsamic Vinegar, Lightly Sea Salty Potato crisps. All the ingredients are clearly stated on the back of package with some attention for allergic reminders. No artificial colours, favourings or added MSG, using sunflower oil and sea salt. That's exactly the extra part you pay for the not-cheap price. Anyway, to me, crisps is a kind of poison, so I'm willing to pay a higher price for a smaller package so that I can control myself to consume as less as I can
Hand cooked line uses different seasons of British potatoes, and thinly sliced with skins to create a crispy & tasty effect, however I find some of them are totally the opposite of 'crispy', interestingly tender. I prefer the Vinegar one (blue package) to the original one (red package); the vinegar favouring is just at the right point, not too sour or salty (also with sea salt), very fresh and tasty.Among 3, the favorite is 4 cheeses & red onion without doubt. It's thickly cut with wave shape. Super crispy and rich chewy texture, besides you will the non-fully fried potato layers in the middle of each piece, so that you will have a original potato taste in both flavor and texture. Four dried cheeses are Cheddar, Red Leicester, Mozzarella and Mascarpone; on the top of each piece there are dried parsley 'decos'. The rich flavor is an expression of mixed cheeses, onion or shallot; slightly sweet at first bite, and rich cheese and savory gradually. It's reduced fat in the oil level and production way, so that the taste would be a little drier than normal ones.
Crisps are the best friend of home theater (personally point of view) with a glass of wine or a big cup of iced beer! But girls, crisps are also the killer of fitness and healthy, so what I do is 'preserve' all my crisps in the transparent container. To keep them fresh and crispy and, the more important is, to keep you noticed about how much you take every time
