Are Lay's Baked Spicy Chips healthier than regular potato chips?

What is Lay's Baked Spicy Chips?
Lay's Baked Spicy Chips are packaged potato crisps made from thin slices of potato that are baked and seasoned with a spicy blend. They have a dry, crisp bite and a savoury heat, making them an easy snack to share or serve alongside a sandwich or a cold drink. They are eaten much like other crisps, whether at home, on the go or at a casual gathering.
Their nutritional profile is led by carbohydrates and fat, with 4.5 g of fibre per 100 g. They can suit a plant-based snack choice, but are still best treated as a small extra rather than the centre of a meal.
