Metrics of a bag of crisps
I made some rough calculations based on a packet of Smith's salt and vinegar flavoured crinkle cut potato chips (45g NET) today.36 chips. Average chip diameter: 4.24cm. Average chip weight: 1.25g.
924kJ energy per pack - 25.67kJ per chip. 13.6g fat per pack - 0.38g per chip.
A$1.52 per pack/A$0.042 per chip (US$1.52/US$0.042).
(Disclaimer: my maths knowledge is very low, so please do not take these figures as gospel. There were crumbs that weren't accounted for in my calculations - that would throw out the results a little - and I was pretty slapdash with the old ruler.)
[UPDATE: After further research, I can confidently state that these chips are incalculably delicious!] [UPDATE II: Change $0.42 to $0.042. My maths really are that bad. Thanks, reader.]
