Kettle Foods Reviews

I live in El Paso and just wanted to let you know that your Honey Dijon chips are the most delicious chips I've ever eaten.

Greatest chips. Some bags can taste like biting into rocks, although.

Best~tis tasting chip! Ever since I found Cape Cod chips and them, being Kettle cooked, I bought / purchased every brand of Kettle cooked chips and they are all "great". Even Lay's makes Kettle cooked chips but not as good as Salem OR Kettle Foods Inc chips. Every so often, I find lots of oil in the bottom of the bag. Rare, but once in a while I get an oily bag. It is nice that West coast is making "kettle cooked" chips. And even nicer having them here in Bean Town.

Good kettle but some of the staff isn t so good. They definitely need to do some training, I talked with a Julie who was just so rude. She gave a lot of attitude that day, and I don t always like to write complaints but this lady was just ridiculous. I don t know if she was having a bad day or what. But I definitely hope I don t run into her again. Oh well, I ll just have to try for somewhere else for now. My son even complained about her, and that was on ANOTHER day.. maybe try and give her some advice and help her learn how to treat people a little better.. I was already having such a bad day that day and then to have to deal with that just wasn t okay. In fact I saw her harassing a lady on facebook the other day and that really just did it. What a coincidence!!! Shame on her..

Great chips but PLEASE NO MORE PLASTIC BAGS! Our bodies are filled with particles. The ocean is filling with plastic! Please be leaders and stop!

I'm 71 years young, and potato chips have always been a part of my life. I've eaten them in 14 states and 3 different countries. I have never enjoyed any chip more than your Buffalo Bleu! They are simply a fantastic taste treat. Quite possibly the best tasting chip I have ever eaten.

I work at the Kettle Brand factory. The facility is well tended and the people I work with are very nice.

I really, really, really want to give this company a 5 star review. The taste of any of their chip flavors are impeccable. Truly amazing.
HOWEVER, before I am inclined to do so, I must know WHY they place the chip bag opener slit where they do. It inevitably causes the bag to tear down the side making for an awkward and inconvenient experience.

I've tried these chips over the years and I've got to say they're absolute garbage. First off, the quality control regarding the actual potatoes themselves is dubious at best with tons of scabby spots, actual dirt clods and green spots. Obviously nobody is looking over the individual potatoes actual quality they're just being dumped onto a conveyor belt and being processed no matter what.

Secondly, the quality control regarding the cooking process is way off as well. You open a bag and some of the larger chips are undercooked and yet most of the remainder of the chips are overcooked and some are actually brown and burnt. Not only that we found chips actually had mold spots on them. Very gross.

Thirdly, these chips are greasy & oily to the max and the consistency is extremely chewy and not crispy like you'd expect a potato chip to be. That said, within an entire bag there are maybe like 10 chips that could even be remotely considered actual potato chips.

I can't recommend anyone buy and consume this companies products.

I showed up three hours before my appointment time and was immediately given a dock. As soon as I hit the dock a worker was out to put the glad hand lock on. 45 minutes later he was done. The facility is nice and clean and the employees are very friendly. I wouldn't definitely pick up a load from them again. They're very trucker friendly and understand our clocks and schedules.

Sea Salt & Vinegar are my favorite but I have yet to try all of them! So far amazing job, love them!!

Love the honey Dijon and Himalayan Salt cooked in avocado oil. Appreciate the ingredients are all readable and digestable.

KETTLE CHIPS NEED TO HIRE ALL NEW STAFF!!! THEY WILL JUST SIT THEIR AND TALK INSTED OF HELPIN YOU OUT. AND THIS IS EVERYTIME I GO THEIR TO PIC UP A LOAD.
TODAY THEY GAVE ME THE WRONG LOAD.OK COOL NO BIGGIE IT HAPPENS.BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO SIT HERE FOR HOURS TO GET RELOADED WHEN THE'RE TELLIN ME MY LOAD HAS ALREADY BEEN PULLED!! AND ONCE AGAIN IM AT THE WINDOW FOUR PEOPLE IN THE OFFICE AND NONE OF THEM SEE ME....WOW!

It smells like potatoes and it's hard to get an easy job. It's all hard labor.

love sweet potato chips keep distributing to Costco in garden grove please!

Family Oriented no fast paced positions Great Benefits and free chips every week

Took me before my appointment time. Have overnight parking available.

I must say, this is the best chips I ve ever had. I love the packaging, taste and the quality of the chips.

TRUCKERS! the gps will take you the wrong entrance. The correct entrance for shipping/receiving is on 14th st SE, right after railway crossing sign turn right and it will take you the back of the building thats where the office is.

The honey dijon, and the sea salt and black pepper chips rock!!

LOVE the Backyard Barbeque - and THANKS for being non-GMO!! Would not eat anything that is GMO if I can help it.

Intense flavors in a crunchy chip from a sustainable company (5/5 green stars also)

I ate Kettle Chips for years, then stopped, and now have gone back to them having found the flavors that work for me. I liked the New York Cheddar but found them a bit sickening after a while... then my interest was sparked again with their Salt and Pepper flavor and now I've been working my way through the newer flavors. The Roasted Garlic is my current favorite.

It's a good thing for me to have intensely flavored potato chips (as long as the ingredients are identifiable as "real" food) as I'll eat fewer of them compared to your more everyday plain potato chips. The only caveat is that if you eat too many Roasted Garlic chips late at night on an empty stomach, you may end up lying awake for hours, being chased around your bedroom by a huge garlic bulb (OK, perhaps I was dreaming). The Red Curry is also well worth trying; the Dill Pickle and Backyard BBQ were interesting at first but not outstanding for me.

I'm giving Kettle Foods 5/5 green stars for social and environmental impact. They use 100% green energy (either on-site solar and wind or through credits); convert all of their waste oil to biodiesel; had the first LEED gold certified (i.e. green) manufacturing plant in the U.S.; support various efforts from wetland conservation to hunger relief.

The last frontier that Kettle needs to reach is sustainable packaging. I'm tempted to give them only 4/5 green stars because their packaging is non-recyclable and non-compostable. After all, Sun Chips (a subsidiary of PepsiCo, for goodness sake!) introduced a compostable bag back in 2009. The bag turned out to be hilariously loud but they improved the packaging to make it quieter in 2011. Boulder Canyon, who make really tasty chips, introduced a better compostable bag made from wood pulp. Recently, Ocean's Halo began selling seaweed chips (which are interesting) in nice compostable bags, also made from wood pulp. So why can't you, Kettle? Hmm? Until you do, I'm tempted to curb my cravings for fried potato by making them at home - slice, par boil for 10 min, pan fry in olive oil for 5 min, season. Hey presto!

Until Kettle come up with a compostable bag (please do this soon!) there is another option - you can recycle your chip bags by collecting a bunch and sending them to Terracycle (postage paid by them).
