What is Ruffles Cool Ranch potato chips?
Ruffles Cool Ranch potato chips are ridged potato slices coated in a creamy, tangy ranch-style seasoning with savoury herb and garlic notes. They’re a packaged snack rather than a home-style potato dish, and the ridges give the seasoning plenty of surface to cling to.
Their crisp bite and punchy flavour make them easy to serve straight from the bag at parties, alongside sandwiches, or as a casual snack. They’re energy-dense, with most of their energy coming from fat and carbohydrates; a 28 g serving is a handy portion to keep in mind.
