Vegan Chips

We ran 1,875 chips through our vegan rules: 24 pass, 12 need a label check, and 681 don't make it.

The potato is not the problem; the powder on it is. Cheese, sour cream and honey-glazed flavours all bring dairy or bee products, and lactose can sit deep in a seasoning list. Salted, vinegar and most paprika flavours are where the yes verdicts cluster.
